I understand that it’s easy to believe someone could make this up to undermine anti-AI arguments. I don’t understand why it’s less easy to believe China would use social media to further their own goals - like everybody does. I mean, sometimes reality aligns with what somebody on the wrong team says.
Kevin O’Leary (Shark Tank) makes the same claim. He isn’t connected with OpenAI but is behind building a Utah datacenter, so he has no credibility either. The problem is, even if China really is doing this, nobody in the anti-AI community will believe it unless somebody points it out who is part of the community - just like with most other major issues. The Information Age has turned out to be a cluster of impenetrable echo chambers.

Oh, the reason for that is the claimant here is OpenAI. That’s why there’s this credibility hurdle in people’s reactions.

It’s crazy that the idea that you should actually present evidence to support the accusation against China doesn’t even occur to you.
