Sometimes AI is like a child.

AI is more toddler than terminator. So, we can think that the AI is like a child who controls things like robots, vehicles, rockets, and even weapon systems. When we think about the latest advances in the world of AI and the self-advancing, and self-developing AIs that can create other AIs, we face one big problem. The problem is that if we want to be effective, we must use AI. And most of the AI companies must find their funding from private persons, or customers who are willing to pay licenses. This means that normal users or license owners are not humans. They are companies whose purpose is to maximize the profits of their owners. That means the AI offers a tool that can kick coders out of the workplace. 

And those AI companies must always make new things for their products that their customers are interested in. And buy those licenses. A significant issue in companies is that they are privately owned. They are not controlled by the governments. Private companies do what their stock-owners want them to do. They can outsource their production to countries where there are no laws that control data mining and personal data collection.  Or, they can outsource their production to countries where authorities don’t care about those laws. It is possible to buy “special permissions” to collect that data for products that benefit the defense of the state. 

People ask for some leader who controls AI development. The problem is that AI development happens under private companies. Those companies have no right to make contracts and discuss their work between companies. Those things are limited by cartel directives. That means cartels are things that can deny discussions between companies and set common goals for AI development. The big thing is that the Chinese authorities and intelligence can establish cover-up corporations in some countries and hire AI specialists to work for them. That is the new way to make intelligence work. Those actors can simply hire software specialists who are fired from their work. In China, it is impossible to establish companies without the authorities' support and cooperation. If authorities have no access to private company servers that means the company stops its work. 

And then they can use people who have EU passports and citizenships for actors who make that company for them. Those people who work in PLA (People’s Liberation Army) intelligence have methods to persuade people who left China to cooperate with them. They can say that family members who will enter military service will face problems in that army. And for cooperation, those people should establish companies in some countries. And then the entire work that those people will make will be copied to servers that are located in Hong Kong and Beijing. That is one way to do business that benefits those Eastern actors. When people use Chinese AI they also deliver information to that country. In those Eastern countries, the security laws don’t limit the authority's access to people's personal data. And that means those laws obligate only private actors.
