China’s Big Tech built some of the world’s most powerful algorithms

Aug 21, 2022

RawNews1st /Tech – Chinese regulators publicly shared details on 30 algorithms that power some of the country’s most widely used apps and websites, an unprecedented measure that marks a new escalation in Beijing’s years-long campaign to rein in the power of big tech.

The list of algorithms included details on the underlying technology that power apps from China’s largest internet companies, including e-commerce firm Alibaba, social media company and TikTok-owner Bytedance, and delivery giant Meituan.

By 2030, AI will likely no longer be getting adopted with simple scenarios and applications. It will be expected to detect life-threatening diseases in the nascent stage, predict weather conditions of a large area over several months and become a digital collaborator to the human race.

In fact, the Chinese government plans to lead the world in AI by 2030, announcing more than $110bn worth of technology merger and acquisition deals since 2015. China expects to widen its lead in the industrialization of AI by leveraging massively abundant data and rapid prototyping.

Quantum computing help AI?

This makes quantum computing the perfect candidate for powering artificial intelligence. The vast amounts of data processed by AI systems require enormous computational power. Quantum computers have the potential to provide that power and thus enable AI to reach its full potential.
