“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.
Man, I would, too, if I could.
If you don’t like USA under Trump, you’re not going to like China.
They are creating an amazing national park system over there.
“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.

Absolutely laughable statement to anybody who has actually been to China. Have you?
No, I haven’t. Have you? To live or to work? Can you share your experiences that make you feel it’s laughable?
Yes, I have, although my experience is mostly limited to Beijing with a bit of time spent elsewhere. Housing is at least as expensive (relative to wages) as it is in a typical western city, despite there being graveyards of unfinished apartment blocks everywhere just outside the 5th ring road. This isn’t getting into the brutal working hours and mediocre wages, lack of free healthcare, etc etc. It isn’t really any better than the US (not that the US are good, they’re just bad in somewhat different ways)
Thanks for sharing, it’s great to hear different perspectives on these things as it feels like they aren’t so often discussed by normal people.
Sure, if you’re ethnically Han Chinese and toe the party line.
This comment reads like straight Chinese propaganda lol
Stating facts = propaganda 🧠🧠🧠
Housing bubble. China screwed up so bad speculating investments in housing that they literally created ghost towns. Not a ghost town, multiple ones - domestic and foreign.
They had no choice but to say that because their attempt at it failed horribly.
Yeah and I get paid per reply, so keep it up
Lmao China? Out of the frying pan and into the wok.
