and why would you think it would take them a hundred years?

they've been heavily investing into the education of their population on all levels for 50 years, while the US has been doing the opposite. the only reason anyone could expect the chinese to remain inferior technologically is if you believe they are somehow inferior intellectually. which they aren't.
 
A very good wake up call for the US I believe.. if what is being reported/said is true and its not all just ripped off western technology.

Competition is good, folks. Changes should be made. Improvement should never stop.
 
If you zoom out at look at the course of history it's pretty obvious the West is in free fall while China steadily rises. By 2050 they will invade Taiwan. What are the odds America has her shit together at that time? More likely she will be twerking and doing Chinese made fent.
 
They've been running away with it lately

Today China's Alibaba announced their AI has surpassed DeepSeek on every metric

China is getting more powerful a lot more quickly than I anticipated

I thought we still had a good hundred years before they could catch up to the US


Our country is run by billionaires hell bent on selling us out so that they can increase their stacks, and half the country cheers them on.

Remember the last several years whenever we would talk about renewable energy on here all the idiots were saying "wElL wHy ShOuLd We Do It If ChInA iSn'T?"

And now China is way ahead of us on renewable energy while the dipshit we put in the White House just says drill baby drill like it's still the 1970s.

The US isn't interested in being a leader anymore. All we care about is enriching billionaires and hoarding guns like a bunch of fucking retards.
 
Yeah, the west could sure learn a thing or 2 from China about treating workers better.

i mean, yes. literally.

it's definitely not better now than it was under mao. the further china embraces capitalism, the less empowered their workers are. it used to be much better.

if you think getting paid $25 an hour makes your life better than a chinese laborer, just remember a meal costs a couple bucks there and they don't lose their health care when they get fired or resign.

The main reasoning I've heard is that the rigidity of their education system along with the high degree of government control over markets & industry would stifle innovation even with the high intellectual level of their people. This may have been true to some extent in the past, but I think rapid innovation & improvements are inevitable once a nation gets to a certain level of technology & freedom. I didn't think China would get there as fast as it did, but it has, and here we are.
