Chinese government's fear that self-driving cars could be used for spying has forced them to block foreign automotive companies from mapping Chinese roads at the quality they need to make their autonomous-vehicle technology work well,in the world’s largest car market.The restrictions,however,do not apply to Chinese car-makers.

Automated and self-driving cars rely on cameras, advanced sensors such as Lidar, and hyper accurate GPS maps to find their locations and avoid obstacles.

China has restricted the recording of geographic information for more than a decade because it believes giving other countries access to that information constitutes a security risk.

Geographic surveys can't be performed without permission from the government, and many digital cameras don't record GPS coordinates for geotagging, as they do in other countries.

Chinese firms like Baidu(above pics) and TuSimple are already working on autonomous driving. Their ability to map roads in their home country unrestricted may give them an advantage there, something the Chinese government probably wouldn't mind.

while both the gej and buhari governments offered our national biometric database to foreign governments for free out of ignorance, the fingerprints on your ten fingers, passport photographs etc that you used for voters card registration, bank account registration, Sim card registration etc is now in the possession of foreign spy agencies and them other law enforcement agencies while Nigeria doesn't have their own. Nigerians always vote in dullards into power.

is that not exactly what Trump campaigned for that won him the election? progressive countries always consider their national interest first before others unlike buhari that voted for a Senegalese Fulani Muslim against an Igbo Nigerian to be the oau secretary general.

We are still reeking of colonial influence, all China had to do was say "National Security" and they stood by it.

The true story is that China blocks this autonomous foreign vehicle company because
it wants time to create its own and doesn't want competition from foreign companies.
Spying is just an excuse.

I foresee bitter trade wars in the future when AI becomes mainstream.

Take over from who?
The west is still the leader in Science and Innovation.
Just watch out AI will change everything.

my brother it's not about leadership in science and technology ,but delivering to the length and breath of earth. Technology they be lagging behind America ,but reaching out to the less privilege in acquisition of such produce in the market they are number one . E.g China phones in our market
