This month Trump's cancel culture ended the word artificial (with super the dictated replacement ). Well of course Americans are free to do what ever the dollar votes for but the fact is artificial was born in English or should i say scottish in mid 18th century to mean system engineered by man not nature.
Let's clarify some other terms relevant to AI Worlld summits in the King's English. I think its agreed scotland started the engines of the first industrial reolvultion; by the 4th quarter of the 19th century switezerland was agreed to be engineer's practice (syandards) mediator of IR2's electricity and telpephone grids and wireless expoenetial rise to 6g (ITU).
The possibility of Deep Learning as IR4 became a stanfird hub in 2009 thans to Family Hauang. Prooh of this reality emerged with imagent leap 2012 and the first machine designed for machines to learn - an early H100 ordered by Musk but purloined by Altman. At the same time Jensen sponsored fei-fei li's ai4All and at 2018 congress testimony she explianed why every country had no futire without a sovereign national ai space.
When i asked GROK which were 3rd to 80th countries with national ai policies assuming Taiwan and US were first , it told me actually Tai-Am were 3rd and 4th - Canada and China had come first. Please argue the toss with grok not me. Here's its logics and its 80 countries now mediating intelligence policies
Yes, I can give you a sequential (chronological) overview of the earliest national AI strategies/policies. Your presumption is understandable given the strong tech ecosystems in Taiwan and the US, but they were not the first. Earliest national AI strategies (in order) Rank Year Country / Region Key Document / Milestone Notes 1 June 2017 Canada Pan-Canadian Artificial Intelligence Strategy (PCAIS) Widely recognized as the world’s first dedicated national AI strategy. Focused on research excellence, talent, and innovation hubs (Montreal, Toronto, Edmonton). 2 July 2017 China New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan Extremely comprehensive state-led plan aiming for world leadership by 2030. Covered R&D, industry, talent, standards, ethics, and security. 3 Oct 2017 United Arab Emirates National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence 2031 + world’s first Minister of State for Artificial Intelligence UAE moved very early with institutional innovation (dedicated AI minister). 4 Late 2017 Finland National AI Strategy One of the earliest European national strategies. 5 Jan 2018 Taiwan AI Taiwan Action Plan 1.0 (2018–2021) Taiwan’s first formal national AI action plan. Focused on talent, R&D, industry, and international hubs. (Followed later by Action Plan 2.0 in 2023 and the AI Basic Act in 2025/2026.) 6 Mar 2018 France AI for Humanity / National AI Strategy (Villani Report + Macron announcement) €1.5 billion commitment; strong research + ethics focus. 7 2018 Germany National Artificial Intelligence Strategy (Nov 2018) Significant funding (€3B+ initially) tied to industrial strength. — 2018–2019 India, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, UK, EU Coordinated Plan, etc. Various national strategies Rapid wave of strategies followed. Notes on the US The United States did not release a single comprehensive national AI strategy as early as Canada or China. Early US activity (pre-2019) was more fragmented — research funding, agency initiatives (DARPA, NSF, etc.), white papers, and executive actions. More structured national-level documents and action plans came later (and were significantly updated in 2023–2025). Summary First formal national AI strategy: Canada (June 2017) Second major one: China (July 2017) Taiwan’s first national plan arrived in January 2018 The US was active but lagged in publishing a unified national strategy document compared with Canada, China, the UAE, and several others. | Here is the full set of 80 countries with government-adopted national AI strategies, according to the GINC (Global Institute for National Capability) October 2026 update. The list is grouped by the regions used in their tracking: Global Leaders (5) United States China United Kingdom France Singapore Europe and Canada (19) Canada Germany Italy Netherlands Spain Ireland Portugal Poland Czechia Austria Hungary Romania Luxembourg Malta Slovenia Belgium Cyprus Serbia Bulgaria Nordic–Baltic (6) Denmark Estonia Finland Norway Sweden Iceland Indo-Pacific (8) Australia India Japan South Korea Taiwan New Zealand Pakistan Nepal Eurasia (6) Russia Türkiye Ukraine Azerbaijan Kazakhstan Uzbekistan Southeast Asia (5) Indonesia Malaysia Philippines Thailand Vietnam Middle East and North Africa (9) Saudi Arabia United Arab Emirates Israel Iran Egypt Qatar Oman Jordan Morocco Latin America (12) Mexico Argentina Chile Colombia Brazil Uruguay Peru Costa Rica Dominican Republic Ecuador Panama Cuba Sub-Saharan Africa (10) Nigeria South Africa Kenya Ghana Ethiopia Zambia Benin Senegal Rwanda Mauritius Total: 80 countries Notes from GINC: These are countries with a government-adopted national AI strategy, plan, or statute that has a public document. North Korea is explicitly not counted (no published strategy).A number of other countries were reviewed but not included because their documents were still drafts, ministry-level only without cabinet adoption, or did not meet the criteria (e.g., Lithuania, Mongolia, Croatia, Slovakia, Switzerland, Greece, Latvia, Bangladesh, etc.).,,, |
