AI - The Human Element

The news media is full of stories today concerning China's announcement of their $2.1 billion investment in a technology park dedicated to AI research. China is investing such a large amount in order to obtain their goal of being the global leader in AI by 2030. I also read in a separate article post today that China's president Xi Jinping, easily one of the most powerful leaders in the world, has two books on his reading list specific to AI. One is Augmented by the best selling author and my friend Brett King. I have to admit, that is ridiculously cool.
