How Diffusion Shapes Economic Competition

2024年芝加哥全球事務協會年度選書當AI科技碰上地緣政治，誰有能力主導技術應用，誰就是本世紀的霸權國家！科技與關稅戰波濤洶湧，經濟強國正蠢蠢欲動，這場競爭，我們準備好了嗎？2018年金磚五國齊聚約翰尼斯堡，以習近平為首探討如何在「第四次工業革命」中搶占先機。這場不同於以往的宣示，象徵著新的國際格局即將來臨。從英國紡織業、德國化學工業、再到美國晶片，每一次工業革命都為某些國家帶來前所未有的經濟優勢，也讓曾經的霸主陷入衰退。然而，經濟霸權的誕生，關鍵從來不是有多快發明新技術！從政府制度、技術創新再到教育體制，讓創新技術成為經濟推手的關鍵，就在「通用技術擴散」，大國確實在短期內壟斷創新技術，但讓霸權成為霸權的關鍵，在於教育制度、技術向下轉移、前後向技術連結帶來的加成影響。在AI時代想要拔得頭籌，唯有傾全國之力才能搶占先機！今天，當人工智慧、量子運算、生物科技等顛覆性技術快速發展，Open AI創辦人奧特曼甚至敢言，人類將在下個百年迎來史無前例的進步時，我們該如何應變？本書以深厚的歷史分析與豐富的數據，探討從18世紀第一次工業革命到21世紀AI革命中，科技如何成為國際權力變遷的核心驅動力。除此之外，更揭露了科技競賽背後的真正關鍵，帶你看清未來世界權力格局的可能走向。
