"Artificial intelligence (AI) is at a very Chinese time in its life. Recent
moves from Chinese AI labs are throwing the dominance of American “frontier
labs” such as Google and OpenAI into question.
Last week ByteDance, the company behind TikTok, released an AI video-generating
tool called Seedance 2.0 which produces high-quality film-like clips from text
prompts, with a casual disregard for copyright concerns. This week Anthropic,
the US company behind the chatbot Claude, said three Chinese AI labs created
thousands of fake accounts to harvest Claude’s answers in a practice called
“distillation” which can be used to improve AI models.
These events have led to suggestions that China may be gaining the upper hand
in the battle to dominate AI. So, is China winning the “AI race”?"
