Agentic Chunking and Bayesian De-chunking of AI Generated Fuzzy Cognitive Maps: A Model of the Thucydides Trap
A new paper from Anthropic and research from arXiv explore the complex relationship between US and Chinese AI development, challenging the notion of a simple race. While the US currently leads in frontier AI, the research highlights deep interconnections in talent, research, and shared inspiration between the two nations' AI ecosystems. Despite geopolitical tensions and calls for export controls, collaboration remains significant, with both countries adopting algorithms and inspiration from each other. Public perception also differs, with China showing greater optimism towards AI compared to the US, a sentiment potentially rooted in historical economic transformations. AI
