The argument of "the west" vs "china" is a bad one.
"US company sued for underpaying employees" -> "It would be bad if labor laws are enforced here, china has lower minimum wage and exploits workers more, we have to be competitive"
I know those situations aren't exactly the same, but you're trying to use that same justification, that we should think about our laws in terms of a competition with china, in terms of AI progress, not in terms of the arts or workers or happiness.
