Alex Karp says the US-China AI race is proving both countries' stereotypes wrong "If people look at China, it turns out, I'm obviously on our side completely. But I have a 13-14 year history of becoming a very high level practitioner of one of the great treasures of Chinese culture, Chen Tai Chi, with a master who worked with the Grandmaster." "The caricature of America and China is Americans are swashbuckling creative cowboys, execution is not maybe the best, but they invent things no one else could invent." "The caricature of China would be it's the highest IQ scale population in the world, but it's not creative." "The interesting thing about the AI revolution is these caricatures are not actually playing out. The Chinese reaction to us is much more creative." "It's not like we're the only creative people here. If you see what they've done with their models, that's creative. That's actually one of the things I've been most impressed by."
