Appearances
This is one of many companies in China that are making humanoid robotics.
voice-verified
They're coming out there publicly.
voice-verified
They're selling quite a bit of them.
voice-verified
The Chinese manufacturers have something like 95% share in this robotics space.
voice-verified
That's another initiative that's a priority for Beijing right now.
voice-verified
They want to be able to establish themselves in some of these hardware areas and really build this foundation for the tech industry
voice-verified
going forward.
voice-verified
Well, in a lot of different ways.
voice-verified
Of course, the government, the economy is very, very different from what we would see in the United States, where there's much more government involvement.
voice-verified
But they've focused companies on these key areas that they see as strategically important to the country.
voice-verified
So manufacturing is very critical.
voice-verified
Semiconductors is an area where obviously they're behind what you can get.
voice-verified
uh in the west and from taiwan in particular uh at this point but they want to be able to build that foundation they see opportunities like robotics is another area and we haven't even talked about the ai models i mean many of those companies are now getting state backing too because beijing sees the strategic importance of ai and you've got not just deep seek and moonshot which are both going to go public by the way but you've got a whole host of other companies competing there like jeepoo and alibaba they're competing quite aggressively in this open source space
voice-verified
which is not just good for them.
voice-verified
I mean, it helps them offer products at very low prices, but it's also presenting quite a competitive challenge to the likes of Anthropic and OpenAI, despite the revenue figures that we saw earlier.
voice-verified
Yeah, well, just to back up one step, of course, Moonshot uh announced itself uh really to the Western world at least uh a couple weeks ago, where it came out with this Kimmy K3 model, which has very uh strong performance uh really near the leading edge of the Frontier Labs uh and the models at uh OpenAI and Anthropic.
voice-verified
And one of the questions since then has been how did they do it?
voice-verified
Uh we know that there's been breakthrough engineering at a number of the different China.
voice-verified
Chinese companies.
voice-verified
Of course, Deep Seek was really the phenomenon last year, but now the questions are around Moonshot and how did they actually pull this off?
