  1. The #Trump-Xisummit & #possiblefuture of #US-China #economicrelations

    As Presidents Donald #Trump & #XiJinping prepare for their September 24 summit, what can new economic analyses tell us about the direction of US-China economic relations, as well as the likely #impact of the #leaders'meeting?👇

  2. EVEN IF THE WEST QUITS,
    CHINA WON’T 💎

    There is something slightly surreal about people demanding that we simply stop AI. Stop developing it. Stop using it. Stop feeding it. Shut the whole bloody thing down.

    Okay.

    BUT THERE IS ONE SMALL PROBLEM.

    CHINA.

    Even if the entire Western world woke up tomorrow morning, deleted ChatGPT, unplugged every data centre and solemnly promised never to train another AI model, China would not say:

    “WELL, FAIR PLAY. WE’LL STOP TOO.”

    Nor would India, South Korea, Japan, the Gulf states or anybody else with serious technological ambitions. AI is no longer merely a clever consumer product. It is becoming infrastructure, scientific capability, economic power and military capability. And once that happens, countries do not voluntarily leave the field while their competitors keep playing.

    ESPECIALLY AMERICA.

    Can anyone seriously imagine the United States government announcing: “China may become the world’s dominant AI power. We have decided we’re comfortable with that.”

    I NEARLY HURT MYSELF TYPING THAT LAST BIT LOL.

    America is not going to sit quietly and watch China become dominant in strategically important technology. And China is already extremely good at things the West once assumed it would always dominate: manufacturing, batteries, solar, electric vehicles, infrastructure, robotics, transport and increasingly sophisticated technology.

    AND SO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ISN’T GOING TO GO AWAY.

    That does not mean every use of AI is good. It does not mean corporations should be trusted. It does not mean there should not be regulation, boundaries, transparency or serious arguments about environmental costs, copyright, employment, surveillance and power.

    THOSE ARE THE CONVERSATIONS WORTH HAVING.

    But “STOPPING AI” is not a realistic plan. That horse has not merely bolted. China is building a faster horse.

  9. “Structured ambiguity” on Taiwan deterrence: “We’re still ambiguous in high‑end scenarios, but that’s not an invitation to push us into crisis… If you change the status quo through small steps, we will change it through small steps as well—showing resolve AND restraint.” —Eyck Freymann, author of Defending Taiwan, on our latest episode.

  13. Китай розглядає запровадження дзеркальних експортних обмежень на AI-технології у відповідь на кроки США. Це черговий етап технологічної війни двох найбільших економік, де контроль над напівпровідниками та AI стає головним полем битви.

    Тим часом TSMC підвищує ціни на виробництво чіпів на 10% з 2027 року. Для компаній, що залежать від передових чипів — від Nvidia до Apple — це означатиме зростання собівартості. Але важливіше інше: якщо Китай обмежить експорт рідкісноземельних матеріалів або критичних компонентів для виробництва чіпів, то 10% TSMC може здатися дрібницею.

    Для українських інвесторів це сигнал: технологічний сектор залишається високоволатильним через геополітику. Диверсифікація між американськими чипмейкерами та компаніями, що виграють від reshoring (наприклад, у сфері обладнання для виробництва), може знизити ризики.
