I have to say, while I can't seem to escape constant articles about the drama of OpenAI and Anthropic, about Altman and Amodei and at various times other figures in these companies, I had to look up Liang Wenfang and frankly what I do find seems to suggest that there may be some upsides to China's lower relative deference to CEOs than the US

You can't escape constant articles about the drama of OpenAI and Anthropic because you live in a country with a free press. Chinese journalists generally do not perform critical investigations of things unless they're sure the Party wants those things investigated and criticized.
I can't currently completely describe the US as a country with a free press, but I do speak english and not (yet) mandarin, and a lot of the information I was able to find about the guy was in fact from the english-speaking press. I was more looking for "does anyone have any better info on this guy or was he just mentioned because he's another foundation model CEO?"
