U.S. AI tech giants focus on greed, monopolistic practices, secrecy, AI surveillance and autonomous weapons deployments of AI tech.

In contrast, China tech giants focus on democratization of AI technology, open source models, global distribution, making machine intelligence available to the Global South, and sharing breakthrough science by publishing their latest AI science papers.

"OpenAI" is a closed book, for example. It's more like a black box of techno-fascist cultism and a creepy mad rush to synthetic immortality and ruling the world like silicon gods.

Whereas China's models are truly open source. You can download the open weights, run them locally (if you have enough hardware), re-train them on your use case, run them offline, abliterate the models (de-censorship algos), etc.

If the U.S. wins the race to superintelligence, we will find ourselves trying to survive under the most horrific dystopian sci-fi "Terminator" future imaginable, where humans are assigned zero value while powerful AI corporations are handed the money and power to rule the world.

Ponder the evil of Google, but multiplied by orders of magnitude, and deployed AGAINST humanity. That's what U.S. AI technology will deliver.

China's President Xi recently announced the AI cooperative framework involving 29 countries, pledging 5,000 AI training packages for developing nations, and reiterating China's desire to, "encourage open source, openness, collaboration and sharing."

While Trump and Hegseth just want to build AI-powered autonomous killing systems that murder more humans. And while censoring high-end AI and restricting access to block the public from being able to use it.

Something to ponder, isn't it?

Hoping you all realize that if Trump uses a tactical nuclear weapon to bomb Pickaxe mountain in Iran (which seems to be one possible plan), then the whole world erupts into nuclear war, and all the food grown and harvested from that point will be contaminated, "post-fallout" food.

One more reason to stock up on food right now is simply because it's PRE-FALLOUT food.

It will command a very high premium if nuclear war is initiated by Trump. Pray that doesn't happen. But plan for it, because that's where Trump is headed, it seems.

Things I'm doing today, FYI:

1) Improving the code for auto-translation of book cover images in Chinese, as part of our BrightLearn Chinese rollout (French and Spanish are already done). This uses local AI image generators and local OCR quality checks.

2) Testing Kimi K3 on bug fixing for an in-house research project that pours through millions of science papers looking for hidden discoveries (basically automating meta-analysis science paper research).

3) Replace broken Windows on my studio laptop with Linux Mint, flashing the ISO image via thumb drive boot. Since Windows sucks and doesn't work.

4) Solving solar charging configuration issues with a new solar inverter, in preparation for how-to videos on off-grid power storage.

5) Taking radiation and ionization measurements at different locations in preparation for installation of an experimental device that claims to help clear the air of EMF pollution (among other things).

Loving Saturdays!
