I also don't think bleeding edge chips are nearly as important as people think they are. And it's worth noting how there are a lot of software optimizations that can be done to make better use of an older chip. This is a great example of that starting to happen already, DeepSeek is another. Eventually, China will catch up with chips, and it's probably not gonna take as long as most people think.
Meanwhile, bullshit production China could never hope to compete with. US does it on an industrial scale. :)
