The Chinese AI strategy is simple. That country wants to be the number one actor in AI development by 2030.

The new Chinese AI called “Manus” doesn't need humans for self-development. We can wonder how the Chinese can make that tool. The thing that guarantees success is the high-ranking official and political support for the AI framework. The Communist Party of China determines its official goal for AI development is that China will be the number one actor in AI development by 2030. That is the official goal. And we know that China wants to use AI as a tool to control people. And work as an ultimate intelligence tool. 

That means Manus is quite near the Artificial General Intelligence, AGI. The AGI is the tool that can control things across the technological field. The AI can connect the robot’s operating systems to itself. The other way is that the AI rewrites the operating system for machines. And that makes those AI systems more versatile than normal AIs. But the fact is this: the new normal will be the AI. And China wants to be number one in that development work. The AI strategy for Chinese R&D work is simple. China wants to be number one in AI development by 2030. And that work gets high-level political support. 

This means that people who work with the AI and R&D programs in that system will get privileges if they work with that work. In China, authorities and high-level political leaders understand the benefits that AI can bring to their work. The hacker spies who brought lots of highly classified data into the hands of the Chinese intelligence gave a demonstration of high-level political support and investments in data skills to Chinese authorities. Those hacking cases from 2011 to 2015 brought hypersonic missiles and other things into the Chinese hands. And still today we discuss how we can stop AI development. So, maybe the Chinese want to be number one in AI development.

Morgan Stanley's report says: 

- China is becoming a world leader in AI because of government support and its focus on computing efficiency.

-The country’s AI industry and related sectors could grow into a market valued at $1.4 trillion by 2030.

-China’s AI investments may break even by 2028 and deliver a 52% return on invested capital by 2030.

-U.S. export controls could create barriers for AI development in China but won’t stop its progress.

- AI is likely to boost China’s GDP growth by powering investment in the next two to three years and improving productivity over the longer run.

They can make things like AI-spying tools that operate in the net like ghosts and steal data from anywhere they want. And that data can be driven to another AI that makes models for the manufacturing platforms. Maybe we say to the Chinese that they should not steal our data from companies who spent years on that thing. But maybe the Chinese will understand us, and stop making those tools. AI is the new tool for the arms race. It can collect data from multiple sources and then use that data to make new solutions. One version of how the hostile actor gets access to data is to cheat people using that actor’s AI. That thing can happen simply by offering better tools for people. That tool can copy data to the databases, where intelligence officials can have access. But how to remove warnings and things like censorship? 

The Chinese AI refuses to discuss things like the Tiananmen incident, where Chinese authorities crushed the opposition. One version is simply to make their AI for foreigners and then that AI can dump data to the PLA’s intelligence section. That means the AI can operate like any other AI. But it dumps data to China by using backup backup. So, if some Western actor can make something using those AIs that means they make backup copies of that data straight to Chinese intelligence official's servers. 

This is one of the things that we must realize. When we put limits on AI development. The high-level political support means that those AIs and other things are more effective than we even realize. That support means that those systems and their developers have full access to the user's data. So there are no breaks for that work.
