The out-of-control U.S. Universities who HATE America with a passion have trained the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to be so good at AI, they are wiping up the AI market with US-Made NVidia GPUs! This happened because of Biden’s intentionally-leaky AI chip export restrictions. Now with Biden gone, the GPU leaks will be plugged, which will cause the inevitable CCP invasion of Taiwan, which has a good chance of spawning World War-III.
“DeepSeek’s optimization of limited resources has highlighted potential limits of United States sanctions on China’s AI development, which include export restrictions on advanced AI chips to China. The success of the company’s AI models consequently “sparked market turmoil” and caused shares in major global technology companies to plunge on 27 January 2025: Nvidia’s stock fell by as much as 17–18%, as did the stock of rival Broadcom. Other tech firms also sank, including Microsoft (down 2.5%), Google’s owner Alphabet (down over 4%), and Dutch chip equipment maker ASML (down over 7%). A global selloff of technology stocks on Nasdaq, prompted by the release of the (DeepSeek) R1 model, had led to record losses of about $593 billion in the market capitalizations of AI and computer hardware companies; by 28 January 2025, a total of $1 trillion of value was wiped off American stocks.”[1]

Nah. Nothing ever happens. US firms will redouble efforts and build a better model. The tug-of-war will go on for a while until the bubble bursts again. US-based Rosenberg-type traitors will probably continue to try to give away our stuff to the Chinese, but it won’t really matter in the long run
