The Chinese government is bad, sure. But notice that recently the US government has been co-opted by people who want to bring back feudalism and reduce most of us to the status of "serf".

And the big US tech companies largely seem to be run by, and occupied by, people who at least tacitly support this whole "techno-feudalism" thing.

So for my money, I'm not particularly a fan of either camp. I'm just hoping that when the cyberpunk dystopia fully develops, I'll have as much open source AI on my side as I can muster to help me survive.
