> 3) International relationships really are a competition. I am sure Chinese AI companies are working hand in glove with the government to make sure their government is able to deploy the latest AI tech. If AI is the gamechanger people say it is, you have given an incredible leg up to China vs the West. I think this is a really important point, here. I think the paranoid line of thinking is helpful in this instance: Who benefits from the US government not having access to AI technologies? - The argument on the face of it seems to be that we, the people of this world and in the US, benefit thanks to keeping these tools out of our government's hands - The unmentioned argument is benefits go to China, Russia, and other countries whose tech sectors cooperate with the government I am not suggesting that the article was written by China or Russia to hurt our government - that certainly sounds like "conspiracy theory"; however, I am suggesting that it is a valid concern that the US as a country may want to "keep up".
