Hanoi —
Vietnam, like many other countries, is in a bid to spur economic innovation
with Artificial Intelligence (AI), but experts say the country is starting from
at a low point and needs to make a huge effort to catch up with the global
trend.
Such efforts would include focusing investment on
training skilled workers and building an open-source database.
A researcher from Google DeepMind (USA), said the AI
advances of the past decade could create comprehensive changes in global
industries and services, from healthcare to energy. He believes the AI
laboratories established so far in Vietnam.
Most AI companies in Vietnam are in the first stage of
development.
In the past five years, many start-ups have developed
projects related to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, and are
willing to pay an AI engineer as much as US$1,678 a month, or $22,000 a year.

Open-source database
Because AI devices learn how humans think and act through
the collection of massive data sets, they work best when more data are
available.
Vietnam’s weakness is in data and information.
However, experts said they are optimistic about Vietnam’s
AI future.
“We have become more serious on this matter; what Vietnam
can do now is to strengthen its program data engineering, data mining, and
databases,”
“But most of all, we have to create a community for AI
and nurture it,” he said.
According to a survey on 500 Vietnamese firms conducted
in 2018 by Vietnam Report, only 13.6 percent have invested in AI in production
and business; 18.2 percent are studying the model and 18.2 percent have plans
for investment in the coming two to three years. Almost 50 percent of the
surveyed companies do not have plans for AI investment yet.
