The Chinese labs distill the SOTA models to boost the performance of theirs. They are a trailer hooked up (with a 3-6 month long chain) to the trucks pushing the technology forwards. I've yet to see a trailer overtake it's truck.

China would need an architectural breakthrough to leap American labs given the huge compute disparity.

Care to explain how the volume of AI research papers authored by Chinese researchers[1] has exceeded US-published ones? Time-traveling plagiarism perhaps, since you believe the US is destined to lead always.

1. Chinese researcher in China, to be more specific.

I have seen indeed a trailer overtake its truck. Not a beautiful view.

No all they need is time. I am awaiting the dowfall of the ai hegemony and hype with popcorn at hand.
