“The original China shock came with the manufacturing revolution that followed the country’s entry into the World Trade Organization. China shock 2.0 was the cleantech wave of solar panels, batteries and electric vehicles. China shock 3.0 has been the diffusion of Chinese digital technology, from ecommerce to recent AI models. China shock 4.0, now on the horizon, will be quite different. It will be based not only on the export of Chinese technology but on China’s approach to innovation as a national project.” FT.
For some very understandable reasons the West does not trust China, leaving the Commies to have to sell open-source AI which is cheaper than using closed source versions! Plus it can be modified so that any safe guards (or spying) can be removed! These folks will do whatever they need to in order to win this AI competition and it begs the question of how much help they will get from their advances with AI Robots!
And that is all I’m going to say about that!
