The fields where the West/Japan/Korea/Taiwan still have a huge lead over China are in the fields of semiconductors, jet engines and space capabilities.

In the field of quantum tech, AI, etc. China is getting comparable to the West or may edge out the West slightly in some sub-fields.

In the field of quantum tech, AI, etc. China is getting comparable to the West or may edge out the West slightly in some sub-fields.

I’d say the US has a fairly healthy lead in AI, outside of facial recognition technology and natural language processing or AI related to surveillance. The most advanced AI work is being done at top US universities and corporations like Google. For example, Googles Deepmind AI solving the protein folding problem, a Nobel Prize worthy discovery.

The US has a comfortable lead in practical quantum computing, but it’s probably closer in quantum communications. It’s difficult to compare in quantum because we likely won’t see significant breakthroughs until the 2030s.

While all of these fields are significant, considering how “behind the scenes” they are, catching up in jet engine technology would be the most visible achievement to change the global order for the common person.

If China can break the duopoly of Boeing-Airbus it could also convince more countries to buy their other higher end technologies.

True. I'd say in quantum communications, China is ahead for now but the US is ahead in quantum computers.

A smart competition between China and the US would be good for the world. I hope India also gets out of its *** backward situation and compete properly.

China is even further behind in jet engine technology than semiconductors. Jet engines are notoriously difficult and take decades to advance. I don’t foresee China catching up in jet engines within anyone’s lifetimes on this forum. US companies would literally have to stop investing today, for China to catch up.

Of course the holy grail of quantum communications is a quantum Internet. We know US universities and national labs have made some pretty good progress at laying the foundations of the quantum Internet, but we’re still a decade+ out from realizing it. I just don’t have enough insight to compare the two in this sub field.

America's $27 trillion debt, nearing to the collapse of the U.S Dollar due de-dollarization of oil trade by steadily growing list of countries, then add the $1.3 trillion defense budget to an bloated and obese U.S Military spread thin between wars in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan and pushing on the edges of South China Sea, Black Sea, Barents Straits and the Mediterranean Sea to pick a fight Russia or China or both. Your precious america is on its last legs, with broken electoral system, divided population of nutjobs interest rates, quantitative morons .... it's only a matter of time before the last gasp and a fatal lunge at war with challenger states.

You can quantum all you want, but there isn't any way shape or form you're gonna weasel your way out of a $27 trillion (and continually growing) debt, black-hole. Even a war won't help you. So enjoy the last ride on the back of your AI, Quantum Computing and Engine Tech .... it ain't gonna save you from your dead end!!

You are correct. It is the hardest field to catch-up in, but that is what makes it the most significant, psychologically speaking.

China may not be able to catch-up fully for decades, but even being slightly behind, may make it worth for certain customers, for geo-strategic reasons, if fuel prices stay low, to buy the Chinese product over Boeing or airbus.

This Japan government study gives you an idea:

In terms of sci-indexed paper published (The statistcs has not considered the fact about 30% of so papers from Europe/US are written by Chinese first-authors):

The column, from left to right are: Japan, US, Germany, France, Britain, China, South Korea and the whole world

And Top 1% papers (by citation):

WS-20 is here and so as WS-10B. Don't forget, China is the only country to demonstrated workable 3D petal nozzle thrust vector in J-10B.

China is behind US in jet engine but not that far as claim.

Good for you. Good for China and the Chinese.
So stuff has been built in China, you have lots of jobs and toys and now all have better lives.

Good for you, enjoy.
