Citing data, he pointed out that about 50% of global AI researchers are Chinese, and roughly 70% of global AI patents were published by China last year, summarizing this as a "banner." Huang described China's AI ecosystem as "vibrant, rich, and highly innovative," which is interpreted as a positive assessment of China's AI strength and a competitive signal.
