The various risks caused by the development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology are increasingly pervasive in every stage of innovation activities. It is a vital factor that we should take prospective and proactive reflection on the potential risks associated with the development of artificial intelligence technologies as we strive for advancements in this field. Based on the global development of artificial intelligence technology, technological and industrial advancement and the theoretical perspective of AI technology catch-up, this article analyzes the relationship between technological catch-up in artificial intelligence and potential risks from three dimensions: cognition risk, Scenario risk, and competition risk. This study concludes that risk perception should be embedded into the theoretical framework of AI technology catch-up, and more attention should be paid on the diversity of technology catch-up modes under the risk segmentation spectrum of different AI application scenarios. In addition, game risk in AI has been another key factor in restricting the efficiency of AI technology catch-up as the increasing negative externality caused by the dynamic and complex interaction of "technology-political-risk".
