    By the End of The Year of the Snake…
    StarGate will be rebranded as SwampCellar…
    NVIDIA Will be smuggling cut price, High End GPUs to China like The East India Company smuggled Opium… China will gift them to Iran, Cuba & Venezuela as their home grown GPUs will be better, faster, cooler.
    METAs “Manhattan Sized AI Data Centre” will downsize to a derelict Pizza Hut in Detroit…
    Hats Off to DeepSeek!!
    Happy New Year China!

    This open-source Al will empower small tech companies to innovate without relying on costly API access to big tech’s closed-source Al. This politician is more worried about the controlling on the people than their security

    ???? I was waiting for this narrative from the US… everytime China or any other country does something better than the US, it immediately becomes a national security threat… rather than an inspiration to do better ????

    Give me a break, any bit of competition or inconvenience for American is a national security threat

    Oh and what a coincidence that deepseek is suffering from cyberattack… doesn’t take a genius to figure out who conducted these cyberattacks ????

    China AI Startup DeepSeek Raises National Security Concerns

    Don’t forget that just a few months ago imported garlics grown in China raised national security concerns.

  12. @robertseaborne5758

    China’s very existence raises national security concerns for obsessively insecure U.S. administrations, China’s massive industrial and economic capacity is what will enable it to defend against any and all attempts to curtail it’s progress. NB: with or without BRICS.

    24 October 1860 The Count of Monte-Cristo..This my son is NOT a bed time????story written by Dumas?? This is a real-life event that explains why your father travels from Mumbai to Shanghai 3 times per month..when India???????? and China???????? don’t have diplomatic business relations. On this day 24 October 1860 the Americans (USA) using the British Government as their agents forced the Chinese Emperor to sign the Treaty of Tianjin. The American Congress passed a telegram to the British ???????? to start the confrontation…Americans looked clean while the British Empire took the fall out of the Opium Wars. Like your bed time story “The Count of Monte-Cristo” Chinese people faced ruins and en-slaved by their Western-debts for the next 100 years…while American Citizens prospered (1860-1960). They got 50x richer while we suffered. It took Edmond Dantès only 20years to seek his revenge!! In real life it took the Chinese People’s Government 165years….to finally catch up to the American Economy. This my son is not about 33Trillion US.Debt or China holding 7Trillion US.Government Debts. It’s about the Children of Danglars and Fernand SUFFERING!! Our companies have already taken 10,000plus low-paying jobs!! We are now competing in Space Technology, High-tech Semiconductors and AI …. My dear son the book the Count of Monte-Cristo was never about the 650million Franc fortune it was about making the CULPRIT SUFFER!! FOR THEIR CRIMES!! and the golden-day will come “near-future” when the CHINESE???????? economy overtakes the US???????? ECONOMY!! and on that day your Indian father will prosper $$$ handsomely..India is the king of software and China wants to be the king of hardware. Just to be safe your business????‍????father has kept back door open with the Americans????…….??

    Someone should have explained “open source” to the lady during the interview because she obviously did not know what it is.

  15. @MS-wz9jm

    January 27, 2025 at 7:51 pm

    US is now widely recognised as the country that bans anything that is successful that it didn’t create. Sore loser mentality.

    Also, one has to wonder who – or what country – is attacking and hacking DeepSeek right now.

    we all know they will play national security card sooner or later.

    USA today is more similar to 1980s USSR than anything it claims to be.

    These folks are keeping the world poor while they get rich and they are mad that China is breaking the gatekeeping they’re trying to do.

    And all those wars going on are sparked by the US. Anyone who spends time researching geopolitics will know how vested the US is in destabilizing the world to appear as the ONE only nation that can be relied upon.

    E vil..

    Whatever fields that China does well automatically become US security threats. How low can you go, come on show the world how low can you go. Limbo rock in the 60s suits you best.

Former senior US national security official Miles Taylor shares a personal account that raises a broader civic concern: the growing cost of dissent in American public life. Drawing on his experience inside government and living the consequences of speaking openly, he says that the real threat to US democracy isn’t the politicians or hard-liners — it’s the two-thirds of Americans who don’t speak up. (This talk contains mature language.) (Recorded at TEDxMidAtlantic on November 1, 2025)
