I don’t think China is interested in developing AI. They are not the most innovative culture in the world. They are really good at copying. They appropriate intellectual property and make counterfeit copies of software. Pretty much everything they manufacture was designed somewhere else. They will wait until the west develops the technology then when we set it up in their factories they will make as many copies as they want slash need.
They are vacuuming up data for the same reason that google and the NSA do. To use it against us.
