      Unless Google & Facebook can get the Chinese government to set up a special information zone, I don’t see how their China plans would work. 1)If they’re subject to the same content standards, they’ll need to hire huge armies of censors -a small video startup can easily hire 500

      2)Internet regulators can summon Google and Facebook executives for criticism sessions all the time. Their CEOs will need to write self-criticism letters and post them on their websites. Ask the CEOs of Bytedance and Kwai how they did it.

      3)Using AI won’t be enough. There will be many unexpected memes that need to be “taken care of” immediately. Think of Winnie the Pooh. It’s an abyss that sucks in a lot of resources and energy.

          4) An exec at an internet giant once told me that their AI speaker could be much better if they didn’t have to spend so much time on censoring sensitive stuff. Try to ask any Chinese AI speaker, “Who is Xi Jinping.” All of a sudden, they won’t be so smart.

          I hope Sundar Pichai gets bogged down in endless meetings about Winnie the Pooh memes & decides it's not worth it after all

          Because of the AI, Winny the Pooh was censored. Humans only revert it when AI made a false positive.
