China Is Pouring Billions Into Overseas AI Projects In These Developing Countries
"Over the past decade, China has outspent the U.S. tenfold in overseas investments, particularly in AI developments throughout the Global South."
"The Belt and Road Initiative has seen China invest over $950 billion globally, with substantial amounts directed towards AI projects in developing nations."
In the last decade, China's global investments have outpaced those of the United States by a magnitude of ten times, particularly through the Belt and Road Initiative launched in 2013. This initiative has involved over $950 billion in various development projects across more than 140 countries, with a strong emphasis on artificial intelligence (AI) technologies in the Global South. Critics express concern over China's intent to leverage these AI advancements for enhanced surveillance and to stifle antigovernment dissent.
