Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is entering a new phase of its development. Among the main competing countries for leadership in this area are the US and China. The US is the biggest player in the development and implementation of artificial intelligence in terms of algorithms and equipment, while China is actively building its capacity due to the availability of data for training, which creates a strategic advantage for China over the United States. In 2021 Chinese researchers ranked number one in the world in terms of citations in peer-reviewed Q1 scientific journals. The analysis of vacancies in the field of artificial intelligence, posted on the websites of Chinese recruitment agencies for more than 200 names of professions, as well as the list of competences of specialists in these professions allowed to determine the in-demand occupations and skills in the field of artificial intelligence in China. The lists of competencies for the most in-demand AI occupations in China will serve as a basis for transferring the competency model of the Chinese artificial intelligence specialist to the Russian high- tech labour market. In conclusion, it should be noted that China starting with similar conditions with some other countries, having competent strategic planning for a long term period as well as huge finances, 5 years after adoption of the fundamental “Next Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan” in 2017 is breaking into a leading position in the world
