Elon Musk: China will have very strong AI capabilities

Elon Musk believes that China is in a strong position when it comes to developing artificial intelligence and that the country will be “great at anything it sets its mind to”.

In remarks broadcast by video on Thursday at the World Conference on Artificial Intelligence being held in Shanghai, the Tesla CEO continued his praise for the world’s second-largest economy.

According to “CNBC,” he said, “I think there are a huge number of very smart and talented people in China.” “I have always been a huge fan of the incredible amount of talent and leadership that exists in China.”

“So I really think China is going to be great at anything they set their minds to, and that includes many different economic sectors as well as artificial intelligence,” Musk added. Therefore, I believe that China will have a very strong artificial intelligence capability – this is my prediction

Musk has significant business interests in China, where Tesla sells its electric cars and operates a major factory in Shanghai.

In the past, he has praised Chinese automakers, calling them the most competitive in the world.

Musk’s latest comments come against a backdrop of tensions between the United States and China over technology.
