"The damage done by this outbreak of open technology warfare is likely to be much more serious and long-lasting than normally assumed in the media." EE Times interviews economist Dieter Ernst.

In deciphering trade relations between any countries, it always helps to step back and first put everything into historical context. To that end, EE Times turned to Dieter Ernst, a senior fellow at the Centre for International Governance Innovation (Waterloo, Canada) and the East-West Center (Honolulu). Ernst is an economist and a long-time observer of China, known for his research examining industrial and innovation policies in China, the U.S., and emerging economies, with a focus on standards and intellectual property rights.

In the following interview, Ernst predicts, "The damage done by this outbreak of open technology warfare is likely to be much more serious and long-lasting than normally assumed in the media."

Ernst, who just came back from field research in China's AI industry, also shed some light on the likely impact of the trade war on AI technology development.
