The Looming Closure of China’s AI Frontier (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Mounting evidence presages a change in China’s AI strategy. Ever since Premier Li Qiang proposed China’s “AI Plus” initiative in 2024, Beijing has generally treated AI as a normal technology and sought to diffuse its access. Chinese AI labs’ success with consumer applications, personal agents, and business automation all serve the political leadership’s ambition to unlock “high-quality” economic growth. But at the same time China’s AI systems are growing more popular, they are also growing more
AI Is Learning to Think Between the Words (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New architectural improvements could change how frontier AI models think, with lasting consequences for the security of digital infrastructure. Last night, The Information reported that OpenAI’s forthcoming Astra model uses a technique called “recurrent depth.” The story immediately generated some overheated claims that OpenAI had invented an AI that secretly thinks in an inscrutable machine language. Representatives from the company have since clarified that is not quite what is happening. But

When Will the Middle Kingdom Make Enough of Its Own Compute? For the past several months, Satvik Pendyala and I have been buried in wafer allocation tables, yield rate estimates, and thermal design specifications, trying to answer one of the most important questions now facing the United States: When will China be able to make its own AI chips at scale? Our answer, published this week in a new report for the American Enterprise Institute, is sooner than many analysts had thought. By our estimate
Voltcraft: Industrial Competition in the Age of AI (opens the original)
Read excerpt
AI is evolving as a technology, as an industry, and as an instrument of national power. The early years of large language models were defined by a race to train ever-larger systems in centralized data centers. That paradigm is now giving way to the “Inference Era,” a contest to deploy AI services at global scale, continuously and with minimal latency. Resource availability has long shaped the ability of states to project power, from seabird guano in the 19th century to coal deposits in the 20th.
