The future of AI is in China not in US

Video: The future of AI is in China not in US! 3 Top Chinese Microsoft executives gave up million+ annual salary, sold millions of stock options, bought one way tickets to start a new AI company in China. Why? Why 10s of thousands of smart Chinese scientists in US are doing the same! 人工智慧的未來在中國而不是在美國! 微軟3名中國高階主管放棄百萬年薪，賣出千萬的股票選擇權，買了單程票，到中國創辦新的人工智慧公司。為什麼？為什麼美國三萬多名聰明的中國科學家也在做同樣的事情?

New advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI) will place ever-greater demands on computing power, and ever-faster chips to power the industry. Without such chips, AI firms will simply be unable to compete with the companies which can get them.

The export bans on the fastest and best-performing chips are intended to deny Chinese companies access to them, and thereby preclude them from building top AI technologies. However, top Microsoft executives left MSFT to start an AI company in Shanghai.

Why would a Microsoft Vice President, and its Chief Scientist, and a handful of others, be motivated to leave million-dollar careers to form an AI startup in China, if they could no longer access the world's best AI semiconductors, as they could at MSFT?

人工智慧 (AI) 的新進步將對運算能力和更快的晶片提出更高的要求，以推動產業發展。 如果沒有這樣的晶片，人工智慧公司將根本無法與擁有這些晶片的公司競爭。

對最快、性能最好的晶片的出口禁令旨在阻止中國公司獲得這些晶片，從而阻止他們構建頂尖的人工智慧技術。 然而，微軟高層離開微軟，在上海創辦了一家人工智慧公司。

如果微軟副總裁、首席科學家以及其他一些人無法再像在中國那樣獲得世界上最好的人工智慧半導體，他們為什麼會願意放棄價值數百萬美元的職業生涯，去中國創辦一家人工智慧新創公司呢?
