The US blocked high power graphics cards to specific countries, and then got all shaken up when their money moat was pole-vaulted by an embargo’d country wielding jank cards.
Why is this a big deal, exactly?
Who benefits if the US has the best AI, and who benefits if it’s China?
Is this like the Space Race, where it’s just an effort to spit on each other, but ultimately no one really loses, and cool shit gets made?
What does AI “supremacy” mean?
The issue I have is there is no surpassing to happen here. We’ve platued on possible AI milestones, so the only new move will be the next big thing… which is impossible to predict when it’ll happen.
