Well, thanks to the Dump administration’s brilliant move to cut off U.S. tech to China, we’ve handed them a one‑way ticket to leveling up faster than ever. And hey, when you starve a powerhouse like China, they don’t just fold, they adapt, innovate, and over time become a legit threat to Nvidia and the West. Huang himself admitted that banning AI chips has backfired, powering Chinese companies like Huawei, Alibaba and Tencent to ramp up their game and grab market share, Nvidia’s slice in China shrank from 95 % to 50 % because of it .
Look, if you keep tabs by letting them use your tech, you’re still in the game , giving them no reason to want to self innovate or innovate at a snails pace. But shutting them out? That just gives them the motivation, funding and political excuse to build their own. And you can bet with enough time and resources they’ll be matching or even beating Western offerings across the board. China isn't North Korea, you cut them off, and they’ll suffer briefly. But then they eventually pivot, scale, and self‑sustain. At that point you're not dominating, you’re taking a back seat to watching your empire slip.
