Carnegie China has launched "Who's Ahead in the Global AI Talent Race?", a continuous longitudinal study tracking how countries stack up in producing, retaining, and attracting the world's top AI talent. The report notes that the U.S. and China are looking to reopen dialogue on AI, and as "pacing the frontier" in AI competition hangs in the balance, the race for the talent behind the technology continues apace. Findings on each country's talent production, retention, and attraction are being rolled out in a thread.
