As with the general trajectory of the technologies, there\u2019s a lot that\u2019s unknown, but there are also observable trends and notions that interested parties can use to speculate on what we\u2019re most likely to see in the next few years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Part of the backdrop that almost has to be mentioned is the Sino-American \u201cAI race,\u201d where the U.S. White House famously waffled on whether to give China\u2019s market access to Nvidia H100s, H200s, B200s, etc. But there\u2019s a lot more context, too.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Analysis from Stanford<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Last week, I wrote about the new merger of Stanford\u2019s HAI lab, and the data science initiative. Here are some takeaways from Stanford HAI\u2019s report for 2026:<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u00b7 AI capability is not plateauing. It is accelerating and reaching more people than ever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u00b7 The U.S.-China AI model performance gap has effectively closed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u00b7 The United States hosts the most AI data centers, with the majority of their chips fabricated by one Taiwanese foundry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Number three is notable, because the control of foundry service is, by any measure, a big deal, a \u201cchoke point,\u201d as one expert calls it \u2013 (read on.)<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">More from Boston<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Speaking of Stanford HAI, in a segment of our Imagination in Action event at MIT April 9-10, we had a panel talking about today\u2019s international realities around AI. (Imagination in Action, with which I am affiliated, runs a number of annual events centered on technology.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Simran Chana, Director of Cambridge Frontier Technologies Laboratory, interviewed Mark Machin, Co-Founder of Intrepid Growth Partners, Alvin Graylin of the newly consolidated Stanford HAI, and Sean Batir, currently of AWS whose experience in the military world included a leadership role on DoD\u2019s Maven AI tool.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cWe&#8217;re living in an increasingly multi-polar world,\u201d Batir said, in&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sg.news.yahoo.com\/ai-around-world-2026-182753359.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI Around The World In 2026 https:\/\/sg.news.yahoo.com\/ai-around-world-2026-182753359.html Publish Date: 2026-05-11 14:27:00 Source Domain: sg.news.yahoo.com What&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":243929,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/os\/en\/forbes_contributor_845\/7af1806f491bdede3d9c96920c2eb71c","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[20],"class_list":["post-243928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243928"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=243928"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243928\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":243930,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/243928\/revisions\/243930"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/243929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=243928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=243928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=243928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
