.@EverMind's Yellow meets @AWSstartups's Yellow Thanks to AWS startup for the invite. @louiselu007 and I had a great time at the AWS Startup Builder event at the AWS Builder Loft in San Francisco. The room was full of people talking about agentic AI and agents, and of course a lot of debate about Chinese frontier models versus US frontier models. It made me realize how lucky I am to speak both Mandarin and English. I met native English speakers there who are really eager to learn Chinese. I spent ten years in the US and loved it. I got my bachelor's there, built my skill set, met a lot of interesting people, and worked there for six years. I loved the diversity, and burgers, fries, and pizza are still my favorites. Then I moved back to China, where I grew up, where my parents and friends are, and where I met my beautiful wife. I love living there too. I was lucky enough to keep working as a developer, then moved into AI, and now I'm doing DevRel at EverMind. So to me, the AI race isn't only a competition between two countries. It's also a chance to bridge the cultures and languages between them. For years I've wanted my American friends to come visit China. The cities are beautiful and the people are friendly, and honestly, it looks a lot different from what you see in the news. Come visit. I promise you won't regret it.
