American researchers pay more attention to basic research, and the training system for artificial intelligence talents is more complete than that of China, so the advantage of research talents in the United States is very obvious. In other words, the United States has the ability to continue to lead the world in key disciplines such as basic discipline construction, patent or paper publication, high-end R&D talent, venture capital, and leading companies.

In addition, the total amount of talent in the US artificial intelligence related industry is about twice that of China. There are about 78,000 employees in 1078 artificial intelligence companies in the United States, and only 39,000 employees in China’s 592 artificial intelligence companies are only half of the US. It is even more exaggerated that the number of basic talents in the United States is 13.8 times that of China.

In the field of research, in recent years, China’s number of papers and patents in the field of artificial intelligence has maintained rapid growth. It can be said that it has entered the first echelon, which is in line with the United States. But in terms of citation effect, the research results from China are less influential than the United States and the third-ranked UK.
