Indeed, and perhaps not just China.

The US started off not acknowledging foreign copyrights for a long time-- until it had a large enough base of material it wanted reciprocally protected.

If not adopting these rules grants you the ability to produce SOTA AI's while most of the US can't we can expect it to be widespread.

This actually gives me a little hope-- the US cutting it's own throat this way vs other countries would be better than granting google and facebook a monopoly.
