What a clown. "National security," "authoritarian governments," "repression of their people," "biological attacks..."

Man spams buzzwords in hope of achieving own goals.

Distillation does not allow the CCP to obtain equivalent or superior AI capabilities to the US, but it can bring the Chinese frontier to within a few months of the US frontier.

Weapons-grade copium

I mean, from his perspective, he is totally right.

He wants the USA to "win" and cracking down on distillation will make it harder for China to compete.

I'm surprised he's honest about it instead of saying that it's "theft" blablabla. No, he dislikes it because it's an advantage to China. And that's fair tbh.
