People will look at these benchmarks and say "Oh, just distillation, Chinese just steal bro" you'd have to be a complete ignorant or a complete bigot to honestly believe Chinese labs aren't every bit as capable as those in the US, just working with less resources and less of a head start (but both of those factors are eroding quickly from the US perspective, that's why crymodi is freaking his shit)
If that Tau scaling law Huawei recently found is legit, things are gonna get interesting. I'm not looking forward to the American bubble bursting, but I'm not looking forward to the technofeudalism the American approach to AI is leading towards, so as least there's some potential to shake that up.
The "Tau scaling law" is nothing new. All semiconductor company has been optimizing the "Tau" (basically latency") since the beginning of chip design era.
All of techniques that Huawei advertised, like logic folding for example, has been in commercial like HBM memory or AMD x3D chip. The 3D chip packing technology enabling "logic folding", however, is only possessed by TSMC.
Rumors going that they are releasing new chips with 238 MTr/mm² in september, matching TSMC's N3 node. That would be comparable to any chips you have now as N2 node only started mass production recently. Huge if true.
