China's AI Pains and Gains

AI is driving layoffs and discontent across the United States. China wants to avoid the same problems — or is it already too late? Reporter Rachel Cheung and editor Tom Mitchell discuss her recent article on how much pain Beijing may allow AI to inflict on Chinese society in exchange for productivity gains. From the unemployed Chinese youths ‘squatting’ in their parents’ homes to the optimistic hustlers using AI agents to get ahead, the technology is already transforming daily life. Plus, a clip from our forthcoming Q&A with Soumaya Keynes and Chad P. Bown on their new book, “How to Win a Trade War."

How the PLA Tried To Get Nvidia's Chips

SALE: We’re offering your first month of The Wire China for just one dollar. More details below! For years, the United States has tried to stop China from getting its most advanced chips out of concern the technology could bolster the People’s Liberation Army’s capabilities. But the web of export controls it has imposed has not stopped the Chinese military from trying to get Nvidia’s products.  John Costello, Director of Strategic Affairs for WireScreen and author of a new report on the acquisition attempts, joins us this episode. We discuss how and why China's military tried to obtain advanced computing technology over a six year period, and the supplier network that has emerged around it.

When the Chips Are Down, Turn to China?

SALE: We’re offering your first month of The Wire China for just one dollar. More details below! The world is facing a global memory chip shortage, with companies scrambling to buy what they can. The crunch puts desperate U.S. firms in a bind: will they need to start purchasing chips from China? In this episode, reporters Rachel Cheung and Noah Berman discuss the rise  and global allure of China’s homegrown chipmakers. Even though the U.S. government designated two of China’s biggest suppliers as military companies and subjected them to export controls, looming chip shortages mean purchases from China aren’t off the table just yet.  We also feature an extract from our Q&A with author and historian Jeffrey Wasserstrom on the importance of understanding Chinese history.  Start your subscription to The Wire China today!

Investors are flocking to a new set of AI winners: the Chinese manufacturers making circuit boards and other components that keep the world's AI models humming along.  In this episode, reporters Rachel Cheung and Savannah Billman discuss the growing importance of these so-called 'pick and shovel' makers and where the money is flowing within China's AI ecosystem. The AI industry is fraught with risk for developers and investors, but the manufacturers will win no matter which LLM comes out on top. Start your subscription to The Wire China today!

A Troubled Road for TP-Link

SALE: We’re offering your first month of The Wire China for just one dollar. More details below! TP-Link is having a tough year. The California-based, Shenzhen-founded internet router company can’t seem to shake skepticism that moving to the United States means it is no longer Chinese. This week, reporters Noah Berman and Savannah Billman return to the podcast to discuss the strange story of TP-Link. In a bid to shed its Chinese origins and sell in the U.S. market, the company’s owner Jeffrey Chao brought his entire family to the Golden State and restructured the firm. But, as Noah reports, the router company's American Dream is caught up in the U.S. government’s suspicion of Chinese tech companies. We’ll also have a Q&A with Jonathan Cheng, the Wall Street Journal's China bureau chief, on his new book exploring North Korea’s founder Kim Il Sung’s Christian background.
