Lewis is a true patriot If you look at it like this, it's clear that the smug pro-immigration rhetoric of "America the global talent magnet" bros is implicitly racist against Americans. Soviet teachers, Chinese students… how about you learn some other trick?
one of the most important things we can do. if you are chinese in AI, here is a greencard. and just like that, we win AI. instead we say: come here get your phd, we will educate you, then send you back to china to do AI. brain dead. https://twitter.com/agupta/status/2077975865296933034
One of the load-bearing ideological assumptions of the American policy is that the Chinese are indeed "Indians". But it's not about China or India. The whole world outside the US (except Israel, the land of startups!) is written off as a shithole with no opportunities to build.
One of my larger problems with their attitude is that they don’t respect the Chinese. Not even a little bit. You don’t have to like them but you need to respect them. China’s best researchers aren’t necessarily our little lapdogs for a green card. https://twitter.com/francoischauba1/status/2078142014865252435
The saddest part of the cope is the assumption that some individual researchers are Jenga blocks, to be poached out of the fragile CCP machine. In reality we see desperate poaching wars in America. hint: it's not because these guys are *that good* they're that *scarce*
The China-specific part is that for them this isn't true, in every domain at once and at very large scale.
