how are these two sentences connected?
I have learnt English for over 10 years, and so have most Chinese students in the past 20 years. This is a part of the Chinese education system. For every Chinese student in top universities, there's a 99.99% chance that he/she is very good at English.
how is this connected to "Online propaganda is insanely powerful too"
what's the context?
- colordrops 2y agoI've lived in china for nearly a decade. My family is Chinese. Just because some Chinese have great English, does not mean that all Chinese have great English, and you'd often see releases with fragmented or otherwise poor English. Now with LLMs, everyone can correct the English in their posts no matter their proficiency level. How does this relate to propaganda? Propaganda is often posted to look like organic and natural conversations online rather than government bulletins. It's a lot easier to do that if you are perfectly proficient in the language. LLM tech enables this. This is not particular to the Chinese by the way, all the major players are doing this. Like I said, my family is Chinese, and my intent is not to convey a negative meaning.
