It's very hard to take his position seriously when he repeatedly refers to the Chinese Communist Party and specific Chinese ministries specifically, like some two bit China-watching cold warrior, instead of addressing China as a sovereign state actor. Imagine if any Chinese AI founder talked about the Democrats, the Republicans, about Trump or ICE etc. It's gauche.

As someone who isn't American, I'm amused when someone from the US talks about the terrors of China or some other nation having more power than them as being bad for the world. The way the US is currently threatening to invade and damage all its allies, well, the world is already bad.

China hasn't threatened to annex my country yet, at least.

So.. you don't live in Taiwan?
No, I don't, I live in Canada. I don't support any country annexing any other country, but in terms of direct threat to my quality of life and freedom, currently the US is the biggest threat and is actively making life worse for Canadians.
So you don't live in Greenland, Mexico, Canada, Cuba, Venezuela or Panama? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_expansionism_under_Do... Judging by the metric of which countries to invade, China only wants Taiwan and not 6 countries like the US does.
