A representative survey of 605 companies with more than 20 employees in Germany, commissioned by the digital association Bitkom, shows that only 2 percent of respondents consider Germany to be the leading nation internationally in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).

Nevertheless, 25 percent of respondents rate German companies among the world's leaders in AI research.Bitkom President Dr. Ralf Wintergerst emphasizes Germany's long presence in AI research and the outstanding scientists in the country. However, he urges greater use of these strengths for marketable AI solutions.Wintergerst points out that AI is a cross-sectional technology and requires a broad application base in industry.He also criticizes Germany's restrictive rules on the use of non-sensitive data, which would hinder the development of AI.

The survey results show that currently 41 percent of companies see the U.S. as the leading nation in AI, followed by China with 23 percent.Japan, Israel and Taiwan are well behind at 7 percent, and 4 percent each.The forecast for 2030 looks similar, with 38 percent of companies seeing the U.S. as the leader, 25 percent seeing China, and only about 1 percent seeing Germany.

Bitkom's upcoming Big-Data.AI Summit on September 20 and 21, 2023, in Berlin will address concrete applications of AI in companies, best practices, cross-industry strategies, industry-specific solutions, technologies, trends and societal challenges in the field of AI.
