The global AI divide

from Business Daily · host BBC World Service

The US and China dominate the field of artificial intelligence - between them they’re responsible for 90% of the world’s AI infrastructure. Where does this leave the rest of the world? We speak to an AI business in Kenya, a country that doesn’t benefit from lots of investment in the sector. We discuss the difficulties of trying to innovate in Argentina. And we explore the divide between regions seeing a lot of investment in the industry compared to those that aren’t, and what this could mean for the future.If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, you can email us at [email protected] and produced by Hannah Mullane(Picture: Computer science professor Nicolas Wolovick, in Argentina, next to a supercomputer.
