China Is Stealing AI Secrets to Turbocharge Spying, U.S. Says::U.S. officials are worried about hacking and insider theft of AI secrets, which China has denied
State’s military uses tool to spy on other states!
…And in other news, water is wet!
China’s spying apparatus is on a whole other level. They’ve been using AI for years to “turbocharge” their domestic surveillance state; now they’re trying to take that capability global–with quite some initial success.
As a side note, I don’t understand why so many folks aren’t worried about another superpower replacing the US’s slowly waning stranglehold. Look at all the fucked up shit the US has done around the world, and that’s with a quasi-democratic government that at least has a modicum of domestic and international accountability. Now replace that with a totalitarian regime that virtually answers to no one. I mean, this is the same regime that has committed a genocide within just the last decade. Can you imagine what they’ll be capable of when they’re the main powerbroker that has no peers?
And no, this is not me wanting the US empire to remain in place. I’d prefer a transparent, egalitarian governing system across the globe.
It’s cynicism about the clear hypocrisy of the situation.
It’s the equivalent of your bully telling you to keep your lunch money safe while pointing at an other bully. It’s a bit hard not to roll your eyes.
Hey, to be fair the bully who is warning you to keep your lunch money safe from the other bully is the currently the USA. Immediate wrongdoing will always have a place, even in the face of likely worse wrongdoing that is set to be in the future.
And one thing also, for the upper comment: Drone striking a whole people, changing the strike type every decade, and carrying out genocide over a prolonged time does not make mass killings any better than a hands-on approach. One produces more reaction, fucks up generations completely, assimilates or annihilates whole cultures, the other is a swift solution in service of a fucked-up ethos. Neither is favorable in comparison.
Def reasons for concern, especially considering the CCP is expanding their genocide of Uyghurs in Xinjiang in the face of tepid international response
Comments like this are insufferable.
Lol right?
“Modern technology is advancing use of technology to more modern methods of technology use.”
Now with Thom at the Warf to hear what they fish are saying about this splashing new development.

licensing your comments has the same energy as throwing salt over your shoulder.
I think it’s closer to those Facebook posts from grandma saying “faebook does not have the right to MAH PHOTOS”

Lol imagine the state of reddit, Facebook etc if everyone started licesing their comment.
Why are you licensing the comments?
Some sovereign citizen bullshit.
It’s legally unenforceable.
Good for a laugh, though!
Operative word here is “could”. Of course US officials say that, because it’s what they’re trying to do. Really they’re just whining about the “stealing” part.
Doesnt matter what AI things they steal. Theyre stuck at, like, 7nm chips, and even thats probably not gonna be around if/when the whole jenga tower topples.

America is being a little bitch as usual. China’s rise is too much for the white racists to handle.
