Xi Jinping launches WAICO: China takes control of global AI

Xi Jinping personally appeared at the World AI Conference in Shanghai to announce WAICO: a new global artificial intelligence organization with 29 founding countries. Geopolitics or technology?

China is playing on a different board from chips and models: it is building institutions, standards, and technological dependencies using the language of global equity. In this episode, we analyze what is genuine, what is strategic, and what is a trap in Xi’s rhetoric; why DeepSeek went from 9% to 18% of global usage in six months; how Huawei is closing the hardware gap without Nvidia; and what you should watch over the coming months to determine whether WAICO has real teeth or is merely diplomatic stagecraft.
