Top AI power? What does that even mean in an industry that is barely 3 years old and hasn't really produced anything of measurable significance other than a whole lot of blame diffusion?

[–] Tungsten5@lemm.ee 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Exactly. All of these AI programs are mostly shit anyways and a lot people seem to not care about them. So sure, China can be the best at it. I still wont care much for AI

Copilot is pretty widely used

[–] Tungsten5@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Copilot is forced down our throats. Thats why

I have been using it since 2023 or something, back when I was a self employed contractor and it's really good at removing chore work.

It’s like T R A P P I N I N J A P A N, but “sloppin from your hands”

[–] KingRandomGuy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

I guess you'd measure whose GenAI models are performing the best on benchmarks (generally currently OpenAI, though top models from China are not crazy far behind), as well as metrics like number of publications at top venues (NeurIPS, ICML, and ICLR for ML, CVPR, ICC and ECCV for vision, etc.).

A lot of great papers come out of Chinese institutions so I'm not sure who would be ahead in that metric either, though.

The US is currently shooting itself in the face and Russia is embroiled in a war that it can't actually win.

All China has to do to reap the benefits is not interrupt.

BREAKING NEWS: "CIA unveils China's plot to just sit back and relax while the US diamantles itself."

Don't forget its embroiling itself in a genocide in Palestine and war crimes in the Gulf of Aden.

What is the formal definition of "AI Power" and what metrics or/and index system is used to create rankings?

[–] athairmor@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

It’s a measure of how much energy you can uselessly burn with other people’s money.

[–] Flemmy@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

By producing at even higher rates in quantities unimaginable, for the economic demographic. Actual demand is a sidenote.

[–] Curious_Canid@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 weeks ago

This may be the least important area in which China is displacing the US.

5 years is like a millennia in the world of AI so this goal makes little sense to me. Too much can happen including another dotcom bubble burst type of event in this time frame. Good luck I guess but it seems a bit random.

[–] BumbyJohnson@lemm.ee 3 points 2 weeks ago

This is just some fear mongering. God forbid another country wants to be independent of American influence and then it’s a “threat to national security.”

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Translation; "were out of ideas and gave been in a long time, better dump some money to us."

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 2 points 2 weeks ago

I hate AI and avoid it as much as possible. I don’t really care who is better at it.
