So what we've learned from this thread is: * Chinese firms are hiring plenty of locals and not importing labor as commonly accused of from your own personal experience * Chinese investments are investing plenty, even in AI, and not just extracting commodities * By investing, Africans are building real skills and developing their own AI talent pool Really makes you wonder why we here in America just ignore Africa.

I didn’t say they weren’t hiring plenty of locals. But they seemed to import the guys running things. The ratio could be 20:1 Local:Chinese or even higher. Basically a Chinese guy saying where to dig, and tons of locals digging. They definitely aren’t bringing in Chinese labourers.
