According to a report by Huanqiu.com, the United States recently publicly announced that it will completely ban the technical services provided by its own local AI technology companies from July 9, 2024.
Since its inception in 2015, OpenAI has focused on artificial intelligence research, and its results are currently serving 163 countries and regions around the world. At this juncture, the United States is the only one to impose a technological blockade on China, precisely because China has made so much money on this business, and it is far beyond their imagination.
Originally, the U.S. government could not directly regulate or control OpenAI, and the state did not have the right to restrict private companies and other organizations from doing business.
As one of the world's largest markets for capital influx, China has always been vigorously supportive of high-tech development, and American technology companies are unlikely to let go of China's piece of fat.
Facts have proved that the potential of the Chinese market is far beyond their imagination, and has a complete industrial production chain, the demand for AI technology is very huge, and it is not only the Americans who are savvy, but also the Chinese who see the business opportunities and development prospects in this technology, and have begun to reach many cooperation projects with American AI companies.
At the same time, China is also stepping up its research in this field, and countless cases in history have shown us that no matter how close the current cooperation is, there will be a time when the relationship will break down due to various factors. When the time comes, technology will be withdrawn and development will be blocked, so how to learn the key and essence of technology will become a permanent issue.
The U.S. government is reluctant for China to continue to make breakthroughs in high-tech fields, but in order to make money, many technology companies in the U.S. don't listen to the government at all, and they make a lot of profits, which has stimulated the U.S. economy, so they naturally turn a blind eye.
But now it's different, fundamentally speaking, the most widespread basic application of AI technology is still used to improve industrial output value, although the industrial technology of the United States is advanced, but the output that can be achieved in terms of system and scale is still not as good as China's, AI technology can do limited things, but it also alleviates the contradiction between industrial capital and workers in the United States to a certain extent.
However, after AI technology entered China's industrial production chain, the result was different, and it began to rapidly integrate with China's local industrial structure, which gave new vitality to China's industrial production field and pushed China's industrialization forward a big step.
At the same time, China's technological research in the field of artificial intelligence has already made leaps and bounds, so that the US government has to pay attention to China's changes.
Finally, this year, they made up their minds to block China's AI technology, and American AI companies even agreed to cooperate with the government's course of action for unknown reasons and jointly launch countermeasures against China in the field of technology. This may also have a lot to do with political issues, and it is another new round of countermeasures taken by the US against China.
If the U.S. government has been unable to stop its companies from providing technology to China and profiting from it, it certainly can't do it now. And the only reason they formed a united front was because their interests were compromised, and the US government feared that China would become stronger after embracing these new technologies, and that was true.
For American companies in the field of AI, China, a big country that focuses on scientific and technological development, after receiving the technical samples they provide, not only quickly apply them to production and life, but also research similar artificial intelligence products, hoping that one day we can also develop our own products.
For example, Wenxin Yiyan, a new generation of language model developed by Baidu, has become a strong competitor to ChatGPT, and other products are also being launched one after another.
Aware of the Chinese threat, U.S. AI companies immediately took the risk and agreed with the government to start targeting China in an all-out way. "The world is bustling, all for profit", it was driven by interests before, and now it is natural to stand on the opposite side of us because of interests.
Earlier, in response to a reporter's question on June 24, the spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said that the United States, while repeatedly emphasizing that it has no intention of obstructing China's economic development, has restricted its own enterprises' investment in China and cracked down on China at the economic and technological levels, which has seriously affected the normal economic and trade cooperation between Chinese and American enterprises, and China is resolutely resisting such behavior.
It is reported that on June 21, local time, the U.S. Treasury Department released a 165-page draft on restricting U.S. industrial investment in China in the three high-tech fields of artificial intelligence, semiconductors and microelectronics, and quantum information technology, and cited a series of detailed regulations.
War is a continuation of politics, and so is the economy, and if we want to solve the problems between China and the United States, we still have to wait for the international situation to change and whether we can promote China and the United States to reach a consensus again in the next stage.
