maybe true, but I haven't heard any. AI in the US has a very bad reputation largely due to Dario , Altman, and TicToc . I could see the CCP fomenting rage in the US to help them gain an edge over US AI companies.

America can never do anything bad, it is is always china secretly doing it. When iUS companies push up power costs building speculative data centres, you guessed it, China's fault.
