    “Left the US” could also have been written as “Returned to his country of birth”, but that doesn’t play to the fake arms race vibes.

    Good article. Will finish it later but it seems pretty neutral and relevant painting both the US and China’s history and recent actions. Many interesting parts, guy knows LLMs are not the way to AGI, wonder how much more the American LLM bubble can hold. From what I read, he seems like a real, brilliant scientist, driven by wanting to understand consciousness, but also an Oppenheimer type.

        “Housing is for living, not speculative investment” is a policy the CCP adopted in 2016. They are leading the globe in renewable and clean energy production. It really seems like they’re building a society for the people and creating the infrastructure to make that happen.

        I’m sure it’s not some perfect utopia, but where is? And it does seem like they’re headed to better places than we are here in the West.
