Thinking of AI (Artificial Intelligence) first thing comes to mind is Amzon's Alexa or the Google assistant. With China being great at innovation. Its clear that they have an open road ahead with the lead over the United States. With the "Yanks" inventing AI, China has set the bar high on the innovation side of AI. While Donald Trump talks about investing in the US infrastructure, boarder wall and other needs that we have here in the US. Chinas government is planning to invest billions of yuan (tens of billions of dollars) into this particular technology in the next coming years. Companies are investing heavily in the development in AI talent. To do so they need more and more data. Great news of success, China will be the leading country with AI technology and will secure its position as being the more dominate economical country.
Year 2000 China said they would build a high speed train and they did. To this day that train system is still the most advanced system in the world. My point is that if China wants to improve in there Economy they will. They will do it correct and efficient. Most young students in China flock to California to start there career in the Technology field. However recently there have been more opportunities then ever for the abundance of home grown entrepreneurs and companies in China. All while working together for one goal.
Tech giants Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent are on a hiring frenzy. Constant developments of research centers being built and investing in data centers that want to bring the competition to Amazon, Google and Microsoft.
The government’s call to action will accelerate what has already begun to happen. If you ever visited China most likely your face is already in there database with all your information. As an employee for most companies your face is scanned into the system by a tablet device. Weibo being compared to Twitter, Taobao to eBay and WeChat to Facebook Messenger.

SenseTime Group Ltd, speacializing in systems that analyze faces and images on a huge scale.
"With the deal, SenseTime has doubled its valuation in a few months. Backed by Qualcomm Inc., it underscores its status as one of a crop of homegrown firms spearheading Beijing’s ambition to become the leader in AI by 2030. And it’s a contributor to the world’s biggest system of surveillance: if you’ve ever been photographed with a Chinese-made phone or walked the streets of a Chinese city, chances are your face has been digitally crunched by SenseTime software built into more than 100 million mobile devices."
