Among all Chinese leaders from the past and likely to the near future, Xi Jinping is the warmest towards US. He cherished his short stay in Iowa and his daughter graduated from Harvard. I dont think future leaders will share that feeling.

My theory is that because SOTA LLM latency between Chinese and US models isn't that high, like not years give-or-take.

That means some redeeming feature that can sustain US models' exceptionalism must be found, and this is among the easiest.

Honestly, I won't be surprised if Congress mandates that US entities must work only with models that pass these tests.

You could say the same when higher level languages getting popular. Previously programming was the domain of Math, Physics, EE doctorates. These days we even have a few months coding bootcamp

eunos··on Failing grades soar with AI usage, dwindling math skills in Berkeley CS classes
Remind me during my early college days in which they even discourage you from using Eclipse or NetBeans during intro to programming class.

Have you seen how bank work with Anti Money Laundering?
eunos··on GrapheneOS user reported to authorities for using GrapheneOS

eunos··on Citing 'severe' math deficits, UC faculty demand a return to SAT tests for STEM
And SAT as high school math exam itself I think is way too easy. They should design another test which can clearly distinguish top 1% or even 0.1%.from others
eunos··on Citing 'severe' math deficits, UC faculty demand a return to SAT tests for STEM
It's very astonishing that sometime I heard folks with very high SAT including math /science/programming accolades failed to get admission in UCs but you have severe math deficit like this.

eunos··on Ti-84 Evo
I have no idea how on earth a scientific calculator costs almost as much as a cheap android phone. Do they use oled and snapdragon soc these days? Back in my school days a 20$ Casio seems more than enough.
