Half of the top 10 employers of AI talent in China are American

China aims to become the world leader in artificial intelligence by 2030. If it succeeds, it will be in no small part thanks to the expertise developed by US firms operating in China. Of China's top 10 employers in AI, half are American, according to a report (link in Chinese) by LinkedIn's China team. The researchers counted positions in AI fields including deep learning, voice recognition, and natural-language processing. Among the top US firms in China hiring AI talent are IBM, Intel, and Microsoft (the parent of LinkedIn).
