I just don't understand the motivation here. Why are they helping us?
Wait... I just got it. The Chinese government actually wants us to fall behind in the "AI arms race"... Oh my God, the Chinese are actually bullish on AI... They're just as dumb as we are.
They're trying to hurt the US by discouraging us from pursuing AI tech. LOL. wow. Just wow.
Yeah uh... "No China, don't do that. This hurts so much, please stop."
Yeah, so much for the myth of the omniscient Chinese leadership masterfully playing the long game. Instead, they're doing whatever they think of day-to-day to cling to power and enrich themselves. They're schmucks like any other schmuck.
