1,3 trilioane de dolari este exportul Chinei în 2024, a devenit manufactura lumii această țară. Și a devenit principalul adversar al Statelor Unite, o forță greu de ignorat.

Elon Musk is to 2024 what Howard Roark was to 1943. In Ayn Rand's book Fountainhead, her hero Roark was brilliant, single-minded and flawed. Musk is a modern day Roark and yet despite his remarkable entrepreneurial success, from SpaceX to Neuralink, he may not have the Midas touch after all. Tesla's share price has dropped 30% since January, and its market share is dwindling in China. Musk's investments in China have also led to intellectual property theft and challenges in navigating the Chinese market. But standing back, Tesla's tribulations could be a microcosm of broader geopolitical tensions of trade disputes and intellectual property wars.

The authors claimed that it performed second-best on the Chinese language benchmark C-Eval, right after GPT4. In addition, it performed at the level of GPT3.5 in one-shot MMLU. A version fine-tuned for programming also performed similarly to GPT3.5 in coding benchmarks like HumanEval. Notable takeaways: Significant effort was put into parallelization to help evade the US chip ban. I don't know how impressive this actually is. It achieved GPT3.5-level performance with similar-ish levels of compute and data. The China-America algorithmic gap is shrinking. My gut feeling is that the model was very specifically fine-tuned for performing well on standardized tests, especially those in Chinese (GK/Gao Kao is the Chinese College entrance exam). It was also consistently bad with math. Thanks for listening. To help us out with The Nonlinear Library or to learn more, please visit nonlinear.org.

How Africa can avoid getting Scrambled | China America, Russia etc are all pulling Africa for a share African leaders must be more imaginative and proactive in pooling their efforts and setting the agenda. At the conclusion of the Berlin Conference of 1884-85, which notoriously carved up the African continent and apportioned its territories to Europe's imperial powers of the day, signatories to the act that formalized the new borders and zones of influence highlighted education and the “material well-being of the native populations” as justification for their historic power grabs. Over the half-century or so that followed what came to be known as the “Scramble for Africa,” Europe did virtually nothing to further education on the continent and inflicted some of the worst atrocities of the modern era on Africans, as colonists raced to extract natural resources using land seizures and forced labor, and implemented military conscription to fight and provide pack horse-like logistical support in Europe's wars. Most of what is recalled today about this terrible scramble are the arbitrary borders that created numerous economically crippled, landlocked territories and by turns divided members of coherent ethnic groupings and thrust together people with vast cultural differences or histories of enmity. Forgotten almost completely are the moral rationales that Western powers mobilized to justify their takeover and stewardship of an entire continent. Much has been written lately about a new scramble for Africa that is supposedly underway, involving a growing list of outside powers. The list is led by China, the United States, France, and Russia, but also present are other parties that have less history of involvement with Africa but are now being drawn in, including Brazil, Japan, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states, South Korea, Turkey, Vietnam, and others. All are seeking business opportunities on the continent positioned to drive most human population growth over the rest of this century—or more insidiously, are aiming to counter the influence of a global or regional rival. Talk of a new scramble for Africa was strongly revived by last week's U.S.-Africa Summit in Washington, the first since the Obama administration held one in 2014. U.S. press coverage has been peppered with allusions to a subtext for the event that was all but proscribed in the proceedings themselves but nonetheless seemed ever present in the minds of U.S. officials: how the United States can compete with China for influence in Africa. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jb-muwonge/message

Is China still a great place to study? Despite the geopolitical differences, some institutions are keeping the spirit of positive collaboration between China and America alive, and one of them is NYU. We spoke to NYU Shanghai's Vice Chancellor, Jeffrey Lehman, about the globalization of education. Why, despite Covid restrictions, should students consider China a place to study?

On Saving America 94, former U.S. Ambassador Herman Cohen speaks on China's growing influence in African affairs, as well as the USA's relationship with the countries of Africa. As always, the opinions expressed in this podcast are mine and my guests' and not the opinions of my university, my company, or the businesses with which I am connected. I am an attorney and speaker as well as the founder and CEO of Claremont Management Group, a consulting firm in Houston, Texas. I'm also a tenured professor, the Cameron Endowed Chair of Management and Marketing, and the Director of Graduate Programs at the University of St. Thomas. You can connect with me on LinkedIn [@DavidSchein], Twitter [@DSchein1], Facebook [@AuthorDavidSchein], and YouTube [user/ClaremontManagement]! My upcoming book, Bad Deal for America, explores the high-stakes game U.S. politicians are playing with the taxpayers' money. The major players, themselves like a deck of cards, have shown us in their own words that the political system is broken. Readers can follow the money to see how some have lived high on the hog while masquerading as public servants. Told in an entertaining and unique way, this book is a call to arms to fulfill the ideals of the founding fathers by holding the political class responsible. My 2018 book, The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures, is a thought-provoking, non-partisan book that reviews the last 100 years of American Presidents (from Wilson through Obama), offering not just criticism, but common-sense solutions to help fix America before it's too late. I also host the podcast Business Law 101, where I discuss the legal concepts all business owners need to know.

For much of recorded history, China was a leading science and technology power. But just as the West rose, China turned in on itself, and missed the Industrial Revolution. The result was the 'Hundred Years of Humiliation', and a long struggle for a modern, yet distinctly Chinese, civilisational identity. Today, technological innovation has returned to the core of national pride and ambition. Since the 1980s, reforms have transformed China into the world's second largest economy and a major global power. Cyber space and other advanced technologies have become a battleground for international dominance; but today's world relies on global supply chains and interstate collaboration--at least, for now. Growing tension between the USA and China could result in the two superpowers decoupling their technology--with significant consequences for humanity's future. The Great Decoupling shows that this technology contest, and how it plays out, will shape the geopolitics of the twenty-first century. The SETA Foundation at Washington DC is pleased to host a book talk with Author Nigel Inskter on “The Great Decoupling: China, America and the Struggle for Technological Supremacy.” Speaker Nigel Inkster, Senior Advisor for Cyber Security and China at The International Institute for Strategic Studies, Director of Geopolitical and Intelligence Analysis at Enodo Economics, Author Discussant Kilic Bugra Kanat, Research Director, The SETA Foundation at Washington, DC --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/seta-dc/support

The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed US-China relations to their lowest point in decades. Deep differences over trade, foreign policy and values have been sharpened amid increasingly hostile rhetoric. What is driving these developments and do they signal the dawn of a new Cold War? How is the pandemic and China’s “wolf warrior” diplomacy shaping the geopolitical contest in Asia? What impact are US and Chinese actions and rivalry having on other countries in the Indo-Pacific? And how should Australia best advance its interests amid deteriorating US-China ties, growing strategic competition and a polarising response to the call for an independent inquiry into COVID-19? To discuss these issues, USSC hosted a special webinar featuring Ashley Townshend, Director of Foreign Policy and Defence with the United States Studies Centre, Dr Lynn Kuok, Shangri-La Dialogue Senior Fellow for Asia-Pacific Security, IISS, and Richard Maude, Executive Director of Policy with the Asia Society Australia, in conversation with Dr Lavina Lee, Macquarie University.

The sharp decline of US-China ties during the coronavirus pandemic could steer the two countries into conflict. Taiwan and the South China Sea could be flashpoints. 

Under President Donald Trump, the United States is holding China accountable more than ever before. How will this budding rivalry end?

Flags of the future to watch In our most recent Topco Business Unusual Podcast guest Clem Sunter, Topco CEO Ralf Fletcher discusses: What the future might hold. Clem Sunter Joined Anglo America in 1966 in London, through its gold division, then moved to its Zambia division and later moved with them to South Africa in 1973. Later he was tasked with devising different scenarios for future proofing the organisation. The latest pandemic has made the world incredibly vulnerable, we all have to be like a fox, In order to survive we need to be agile, adaptive & ready for new situations and change. We need to watch 4 main flags 1. The real driver of global economy - China & America relationship over the next 2 years. 2. level of inequality. If only the poor are affected, and the rich is unaffected then this will drive further inequality in South Africa. This is why SME's and entrepreneurs are so important. 3. Climate Change and reduction of certain animal species. The world is very fragile at the moment and our carbon emissions are going to play a huge role in our recovery. 4. The chance of a war. this may be less likely. Further to this, if you are a Fox you need to keep diversified, in terms of assets and investments. We also have not seen any real data yet, so we need to be cautious.

America is a pretty good friend, we'll back you up no matter what. In fact we'll back you up well past the point of sanity or decency. And there's no place where that's clearer than America's relationship with the Republic of China/Taiwan/Chinese Taipei/Formosa. The average American doesn't think about Taiwan too much, but its a perfect symbol of how weird geopolitics can get, how massive issues are created by small flaws, and how domestic politics creates foreign policy. Also there's a lot of ceramic swans, pirates, bad handwriting, and a cactus involved.

As any traveler knows, some of the best and most honest conversations take place during car rides. So, when a long-time NPR correspondent wanted to learn more about the real China, he started driving a cab and discovered a country amid seismic political and economic change. China—America's most important competitor—is at a turning point. With economic growth slowing, Chinese people face inequality and uncertainty as their leaders tighten control at home and project power abroad. In his adventurous book The Shanghai Free Taxi, Frank Langfitt provides details about his free taxi service and how he got to know a wide range of colorful, compelling characters representative of the new China. They include folks such as Beer, a slippery salesman who tries to sell Langfitt a used car; Rocky, a farm boy turned Shanghai lawyer; and Chen, who runs an underground Christian church and moves his family to America in search of a better, freer life. Langfitt is currently NPR's London correspondent, covering the UK, Ireland and Europe. He previously spent five years covering China for NPR. In China, he reported on the government's infamous black jails—secret detention centers—as well as his own travails taking China's driver's test, which he failed three times. Before coming to NPR, Langfitt spent five years as a correspondent in Beijing for The Baltimore Sun, covering a swath of Asia, from East Timor to the Khyber Pass. He is a graduate of Princeton and was a Nieman Fellow at Harvard. Come for a fascinating conversation that will help make sense of the world's other superpower at this extraordinary moment in history.

Negotiations to end the trade war have been ruffled as the Trump administration again ramped up tariffs. But even if a deal is struck, that won’t address serious systemic troubles in the countries’ relationship.

As Congress marks its 100th day in session and we make our way through Q2 of 2019, we’re taking a closer look at several of the important issues that Congress will be addressing, from the Paris Accord to the review of judicial nominees and natural disaster relief for Puerto Rico. My guest, Elizabeth Frazee, is joining me for the second time on this podcast to share her insight and updates on the 116th U.S. Congress.  Elizabeth was named a “Top Lobbyist” by The Hill newspaper and has a 30-year career in Washington that encompasses over a decade working in high-level jobs on Capitol Hill, executive experience at leading tech and entertainment companies and years of successful representation of companies, trade associations and non-profits as a policy advocate and political strategist. What We Discuss in This Episode: How will Congress handle H.R. 1644 – Save the Internet Act of 2019? Given the disagreement between the House of Representatives and the Executive Branch, how will the House handle executive privilege, especially as it relates to the Mueller Report and security clearances? How does Congress feel about the redacted Mueller Report? What affect will Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s nuclear option have on presidential nominations? Will bipartisanship only increase with the Senate’s current approach to presidential nominees? Are party politics or qualifications influencing the Senate’s approach to the nominees? Will there be relief for the people of Puerto Rico? What are the prospects for the House’s bill, H.R.9, directing the U.S. to return to the Paris Agreement? How will privacy legislation be dealt with given federal preemption? What will happen with the trilateral treaty with Canada and Mexico, the USMCA? Is progress being made in the China-America trade negotiations?

We assess the damage already done by looking at the global soyabean market. Countries around the world are struggling with the ethics and security concerns around re-admitting their citizens who have fought with Islamic State.

Google's quantum computing researchers have been planning a party—but new results from a competing team at China's Alibaba may have postponed it.
