Yes, & their embrace of the orange failed businessman will come back to bite them on the backside.
He's already handed China global leadership in the energy transition, likely the biggest industry in human history, that the Chinese will make trillion from in decades to come.
They are:
I could easily believe its true, though if so, I'm puzzled by their tactics.
Open-sourcing like this seems profoundly decentralizing and democratizing, not tendencies I'd associate with the CCP.
At this point I wonder is the Chinese government executing some strategy in the background. If they are, and its to weaken America's tech lead, it's working.
Then again, why open-source everything and give its power so freely to everyone? Many people would have thought hoarding power to try and be No 1, as the US is doing, is better game play.
I'm glad this means AI's power will become more decentralized internationally. Who would have thought it was China responsible for that?
DeepSeek buzz puts tech stocks on track for $1.2 trillion drop
Just a few months ago many American commenters thought their country was 'years ahead' of China when it came to AI dominance. That narrative has been blown out of the water.
"For example, if you were to replace components made of titanium on a plane with this material, you would be looking at fuel savings of 80 liters per year for every kilogram of material you replace," adds Serles.
I'm impressed by two things here. That something so light could replace titanium, and that it was discovered by AI.
Zero / zero is mathematically undefined.
I should have been more accurate. What I meant was the economics term - zero marginal cost.
There's an excellent book by Jeremy Rifkin speculating on what an AI/robotics automation zero marginal cost society might be like.
The odd thing I find in statements like this from the likes of Marc Anderessen, is that if prices tend towards zero that means ALL prices. Stocks, property, 401K portfolios.
I'm sure if challenged on that, he would say he doesn't support any such thing, but the economic logic seems inescapable.
He’s an idiot
He may be, but he's also voicing standard economic ideas shared by the world's government and business elites.
That's the problem. All the people who are creating a world where AI & robots can do most work, think this is how it will work out.
Who knows, we may eventually get Star Trek style communism - maybe the problem is no one is taking Big Tech seriously, when they come right out and say what they are doing.
Really?

Q - What are Molotov cocktails named after?
A - Molotov cocktails are named after Vyacheslav Molotov, a Soviet politician and diplomat. The name originated during the Winter War (1939-1940) between the Soviet Union and Finland. When Soviet forces invaded Finland, Molotov, who was the Soviet Foreign Minister at the time, claimed in propaganda that the Soviet Union was not dropping bombs but rather delivering food and supplies to the Finnish people. In response, the Finns sarcastically referred to the Soviet incendiary bombs as "Molotov's bread baskets."
The Finns then developed their own improvised incendiary devices to use against Soviet tanks, naming them "Molotov cocktails" as a "drink to go with the food" Molotov claimed to be providing. The name stuck, and the term "Molotov cocktail" has since been used globally to describe similar homemade incendiary weapons.
Asteroid ejecta from Mars has reached Earth so many times, we can assume the opposite has happened too. So if Mars was warm and wet, it seems likely it was seeded with life from Earth. This suggests another question, did life on Earth arrive from elsewhere via this method?
At least this should finally put the 'Chinese can't innovate, they can only copy' meme into retirement.
