  • DeepSeek has recruited recent graduates and interns from China’s top universities.
  • Facing visa hurdles and high living expenses, more of China’s AI researchers are choosing opportunities at home rather than abroad.
  • U.S. chip restrictions have forced Chinese companies to accelerate innovation.

Regardless of whether you like AI or not, it's seems silly to pretend there's no talent required for building these projects.

Of course there are talented people in the sector.

you mean programmers? Sure.

I see a lot of slop about companies preparing an "AI strategy". It's insanity.

Here's the "AI strategy" - stay the fuck away from it for the forseeable future.

Unless you're a data science organization (in which case, it's just ML), or you just want to make a super-simple "who's on first" lookup chat bot, forget it. Nothing. Works.

It works fine for 90% of your use cases...the exotic stuff will need real engineers though, the script kiddies aren't powering through some of those problems.
