“…84% of Chinese people say they’re excited about AI. In America, it’s now just 38%.
This has all the telltale signs of not just a Chinese psyop, but a dedicated, multiyear plan to defeat America in the AI race.
Look at what’s happened in the past two years:
-
- AI and data centers have been thoroughly (and, possibly, permanently) demonized in America. Especially after the midterms, very few politicians will approve new large-scale data centers.
- The U.S. AI industry is currently being destabilized. “Someone” is spreading unsubstantiated rumors (and/or leaking classified information) about the private lives of top U.S. tech CEOs.
- The “vast Chinese spying machine” continues to Hoover up our tech secrets.
- The media keeps pushing anti-AI propaganda into the political discourse, even though it’s a 1% issue.
- The Democrats in Congress are prioritizing AI slowdowns, guardrails, moratoriums, hearings, and regulations. (Reuters calls it a “flood of AI bills.”)
Everything China wanted is coming true!
The Jensen Huang/sexy Chinese spy story was fun. Call it a honeypot, a honeytrap, or anything you want.
But I seriously doubt that story is the real story. Too many coincidences. Too many pro-Chinese, anti-American outcomes in a row. Including outcomes FAR better than what you’d get from a one-off honeypot operation and ChiCom shell companies.
Sorry, but this isn’t a story about honeypots or sexy spies. It’s way bigger than that…”
