It's an aggregate - the devaluation of the US as a trade partner increases China's, even if they do nothing other than maintain the status quo (they won't).
A valuation internationally of "the least worst option," viewed from the perspective of decade long trade relations.
Yeah, every activity they've taken so far has driven the ship towards American isolation and incentivized Chinese trade (and trade between everyone else) with every other nation.
As you say, even with Internet connection, LLMs only infer. The software you run it on (or online) is a different story, and it's literally already the case with everything else for decades (although it is getting worse).
We weren't upset enough when Google started scraping everyone's emails, or how Meta/Amazon/Google/Microsoft/ByteDance track all your Internet activity right now via browser fingerprinting.
It is in their interest, they're unfortunately ruled now by a self-interested Russian puppet.

But...
This is literally the plot to Trillion Game.
Can barely comment on this stuff anymore because of the literal horror being inflicted
The article is a Trump hallucination.
He’s not wrong that leaders flatter him; but it’s not respect, it’s geopolitical strategy. They’re managing chaos, hedging with China and others, and responding to a weaker US position largely created by Trump himself. This isn’t strength; it’s a soft power collapse that’s opening dangerous doors, mainly for Americans most of all, but likely for everyone else too.
What Trump sees as deference is actually diplomatic triage. World leaders aren’t engaging him because they admire him; leaders are trying to keep the global order from unraveling faster than it already is. The cost of alienating the U.S. is high, but increasingly, so is relying on it. That shift is the real story, and it’s one that leaves America more isolated with each bluster.
And make it everyone else's fault somehow.
Essentially want to be the only option - buy a Tesla and fill both the trunk and frunk with gasoline or get wrecked.
Nevermind they're pumping and dumping the entire stock market now, turning all the safeguards off, and extracting wealth at a rate that makes Congress look like child's play.
