Artificial intelligence is causing significant structural changes to global competition and economic growth. With the potential to generate trillions of dollars in new value over the next decade, there is a risk that this value will not be easily captured or evenly distributed across nations.
The completeness of a country’s national AI strategy forecasts that nation’s ability to compete in the global digital economy. Yet a blind spot means that few national AI strategies reflect a robust understanding of domestic AI capacity, how to use it effectively, and how to structure it resiliently. This is similar to rolling out a national health strategy without knowing how many hospitals are available.
This presents the risk that national AI plans remain aspirational, and not detailed enough to be operational. A few countries have announced initiatives to increase compute available for research and academia, including the United States National AI Research Resource and Canada’s Digital Research Infrastructure Strategy.
Special infrastructure needs for AI systems have grown dramatically over the last few years, especially for deep learning and neural networks.
Well the intelligence of government in SA is artificial...
That's the thing about fire fighting. With all hands on deck, singularly focussed on the latest crisis, there's no chance seeing, taking advantage of, opportunities for growth. We even miss the developing embryos of the next crises. Stuck in a vicious circle, A Nasty Cycle. ANC.
I remember sitting in a meeting with a senior manager at one of the big banks in 2016 telling me that 'Big Data and Data Science is just a fad and not really worth spending much time on'.
I don't think the comrades know what AI means.
I’m sure whenever someone brings that up the comrades say you’re trying to be too clever

ChatGPT set to be a major disruptor in education, sending teachers into a panicThe emergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform ChatGPT in November not only signalled a major step forward in technology but has been hailed by academics as “a technological revolution never seen before”. Well not all is positive as it means the education system needs to be updated to keep up with this new technology. For one thing the fact that students depend on it to provide solutions to assignment answers means they won't learn anything from their studies.
