TikTok (ByteDance) is now building an AGI team to train and advance LLMs (towards AGI), probably after realizing they are in a similar scenario.

I don't know how they think they are going to get the required number of GPU's through export controls.
Are the export controls to China geographically or any Chinese majority-owned entity? Either way, ByteDance has tons of offices everywhere in the world including Singapore, US, etc. Given the money, I don't think GPU access wouldn't be their biggest problem.
