    Pure Propaganda. Not a single source in the original article. Nonsense…

      It’s propaganda that China tends to overbuild and bubble anything? Entire empty cities would like to have a word with you

      There are quite literally references through the entire document.

      Here is a notable one:

      Fang, Li, and multiple on-the-ground sources, who asked to speak anonymously for fear of political repercussions.

          It’s an investigative report that has investigative information. Believe it, or don’t. Whatever.

          I am more inclined to believe it because of the rabid tankie response declaring it propaganda. And cummon… the standards for fact verification on ml are super low.

    The state will just turn them into surveillance hubs.

      Large Language Models are perfect to generate propaganda and surveil social media activities globally.

    If that’s true, is there any cheap compute provider leveraging the low cost and providing service to customers abroad?

      If you can hack these data centers you can even get the compute for free. How good are these Chinese centers at cyber-security?

        Probably not entirely secure. We had things like this happening: https://techcrunch.com/2025/03/26/leaked-data-exposes-a-chinese-ai-censorship-machine/
