I believe in open and fair competition between the United States and China when it comes to AI. I think it's amazing that DeepSeek and Alibaba both were able to create language learning models that were as good, if not better, than OpenAI's ChatGPT. What I'm kind of sad about in the United States you've seen a lot of tech bros, the view DeepSeek's release as a Sputnik moment. But instead of saying, "Let's outcompete the Chinese fairly, let's invest more in R&D, let's have more good minds on it," they're pushing Trump to try to put even more sanctions and even more expert controls on China. You see Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, is saying, "We need to add even more export controls." Alexander Wong, who's also the founder of a big AI company, has also said, "We need to slap more sanctions on China."
I think the reality is the Trump era, the Biden era, sanctions and tariffs have shot America in the foot. If they hadn't launched such sanctions, China probably wouldn't have focused so much on indigenous innovation.
