Comment on Anon is waiting for Japan
finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 week agoI hate China, but they absolutely are ahead of of the curve on science and technology. They still produce cheap worthless shit but that doesn’t change the fact that they also produce cutting edge shit which can be found nowhere else in the world.

In my opinion they only have solar and batteries going for them. Cutting edge silicon is nowhere to be found in China which I think it’s a lot more important.
I would not take any Chinese numbers at face value. Especially when it comes to costs, training, running, etc.
Also (tangent warning), i feel like their AI project was a part of some propaganda by their part. Like, it’s fed Chinese facts like “nothing happened in 1989” or “China had never been in an armed conflict” or “China has never had famines”. Making it open source exports just their propaganda which I feel was the secondary goal in all this.
