PRC workforce % of service/knowledge industry not huge, there's a fuckload of undereducated blue collar aunties and uncles where AI legitimately improves their QoL and allows country bumpkins to participate in society/economy. There's still areas of huge disruption (creative), but last1 200 years of Chinese history basically learned lesson in cost of tech stagnation. Also high home ownership rate, high savings rate... low debt/student loans... i.e. there isn't entire paycheck to paycheck tertiary class who goes into collection once they realize their entire lifetime contribution to the workforce is worth about a few $1000 in compute credits. Displacement fears is going to hit them... just not yet.
