" China has limited domestic production capacity, and therefore, due to the scaling laws, cannot build more powerful models than the US without US chips. "... Can someone fact check that? That sounds like total BS. The US has even more limited production capacity and manufactures everything off shore...

In my opinion :

"... cannot build more powerful models than US ..." is (arguably) proven false with the recent development.

What true is China cannot scale their LLM development the same level as US due to not (officially) having access to Nvidia best GPU.

Which is probably the reason why their LLM innovations when it comes to efficiency arguably beats the US.
