--- Quote ---The Chinese government is using companies with expertise in artificial intelligence to monitor and manipulate public opinion, giving it a new weapon in information warfare, according to current and former U.S. officials and documents unearthed by researchers.
One company’s internal documents show how it has undertaken influence campaigns in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and collected data on members of Congress and other influential Americans.
While the firm has not mounted a campaign in the United States, American spy agencies have monitored its activity for signs that it might try to influence American elections or political debates, former U.S. officials said.
Artificial intelligence is increasingly the new frontier of espionage and malign influence operations, allowing intelligence services to conduct campaigns far faster, more efficiently and on a larger scale than ever before.

The company’s work, according to current and former American officials, is aligned with China’s national security strategy, an assessment that the documents buttress.
Evoking a phrase used by Mao Zedong, the company suggests that its technology will be essential to help China prevail over the West.
The GoPro system, the company says, will become a “technological platform that can truly tell China’s story, amplify China’s voice and expand China’s influence, as well as providing comprehensive technological support to quickly make ‘the easterly wind overpowering the westerly wind’ a reality.”

China has just unveiled a mosquito-sized spy drone, an ultra-quiet, radar-evading UAV engineered for indoor surveillance. Designed to mimic an insect, it can be controlled directly from a smartphone.

BobfromWB:
And led by 47, the US is selling NVIDIA's most advanced AI chip to be used in China's mega-AI server farms.
47 wants Xi Jinping, like Putin, to love him. And they do; he's such a push over when it comes to dealing with dictators and authoritarian regimes.

Who the F thought it was a good idea to sign a free trade deal with Communists? Idiots.
Free Vulcan:
I think China has a tiger by the tail that's eventually going to turn on them and wreak havoc on their world.
