nah, we know what the burger reich wants cause they published a literal policy paper explaining it https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/research_reports/RR3000/RR3063/RAND_RR3063.pdf

let’s be generous maybe he thinks Belarus is the mastermind here 🤣

Sure, no human society is perfect. However, it’s clear to anybody who has even a shred of intellectual honesty that on the whole Chinese society works in the interest of the people of China. Let mew know if you’re still struggling with this concept.

Oh, congratulations on achieving the impossible. I wasn’t aware I was speaking to an omniscient deity floating in a vacuum.

Saying “I have no bias” doesn’t make you neutral, it just means you’re dangerously unaware of how human cognition works. Bias isn’t a character flaw you can opt out of, it is the inevitable result of having a subjective point of view. Unless you possess total, universal information (which you don’t), your entire worldview is built on the limited data you’ve consumed, the specific environment you inhabit, and the people you interact with.

You are filtering reality through a unique lens just like the rest of us. Pretending you aren’t doesn’t make you “objective”, it just makes you the most unreliable narrator in the room because you’re too blind to see your own blind spots.

Exactly, just imagine standing up for the atrocities that CPC subjects the people of China to. I mean just look at these horrors!

90% of families in the country own their home giving China one of the highest home ownership rates in the world. What’s more is that 80% of these homes are owned outright, without mortgages or any other leans. https://www.forbes.com/sites/wadeshepard/2016/03/30/how-people-in-china-afford-their-outrageously-expensive-homes

The real (inflation-adjusted) incomes of the poorest half of the Chinese population increased by more than four hundred percent from 1978 to 2015, while real incomes of the poorest half of the US population actually declined during the same time period. https://www.nber.org/system/files/working_papers/w23119/w23119.pdf

From 1978 to 2000, the number of people in China living on under $1/day fell by 300 million, reversing a global trend of rising poverty that had lasted half a century (i.e. if China were excluded, the world’s total poverty population would have risen) https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/China’s-Economic-Growth-and-Poverty-Reduction-Angang-Linlin/c883fc7496aa1b920b05dc2546b880f54b9c77a4

People in China enjoy high levels of social mobility https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2018/11/18/world/asia/china-social-mobility.html

Student debt in China is virtually non-existent because education is not run for profit. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jlim/2016/08/29/why-china-doesnt-have-a-student-debt-problem/

China massively invests in public infrastructure. They used more concrete in 3 years than US in all of 20th century https://www.forbes.com/sites/niallmccarthy/2014/12/05/china-used-more-concrete-in-3-years-than-the-u-s-used-in-the-entire-20th-century-infographic/

China also built 27,000km of high speed rail in a decade https://www.railjournal.com/passenger/high-speed/ten-years-27000km-china-celebrates-a-decade-of-high-speed/

What sane person would want to live in that sort of a hellscape.

The other aspect that’s worth keeping in mind is software. If Huawei focuses on optimizing the software side they can easily compensate for hardware being slower. Modern software is incredibly bloated, and there’s plenty of low hanging fruit there.

a temporarily inconvenienced billionaire appears

oh hah I have not :)

sure buddy https://responsiblestatecraft.org/ukraine-recruitment-army/

lol seems like it

lol I just found it, I have no idea what was used to make it, why does it matter even?

I think we all saw that coming Reich around the corner.

This such a deeply disingenuous argument to make. Fascist in Ukraine literally run the government and they’re not even hiding it. This is a qualitatively different situation from there being fascists in a country. You should be deeply ashamed of yourself.

It’s powered by a miniature nuclear reactor meaning that it can stay airborne long enough to fly around the world and approach targets from any direction.

You gotta love it when people start commenting on a topic they have no clue about. There is no reentry, this is a low flying missile. The whole point of it is that it’s a loitering missile that can fly around for months on end. That’s the whole reason for the panic in NATO, it’s not possible to track it at all. Time for you to stop embarrassing yourself in public.

What actually turned out to have the capabilities of wet farts were all the fabled NATO weapons that were sent to Ukraine. Every single wunderwaffe that was supposed to turn the war right around turned out to be a dud in the end.

AI is being developed in China in a very different way from the west because the material conditions in China are different. https://dialecticaldispatches.substack.com/p/the-ghost-in-the-machine

The reason Chinese companies release LLMs as open source isn’t actually confusing either. It’s not being treated as a product, but rather as foundational technology that things will be built upon. Think of it the same way as the current open source infrastructure that underpins the internet. Most companies aren’t trying to monetize Linux directly, rather they use it to build actual products on top of.

However, dragging the US into a tech race it can’t win is also a factor whether it’s done intentionally by China or not. https://dialecticaldispatches.substack.com/p/the-ai-race-isnt-about-chips-its

somebody fainted while Trump was doing a presser

That is one of very clear legitimate uses for LLMs, similarly they work great for making decompiled code human readable now.
