more broadly than ram, from what i’ve been reading, they are already gearing up to do just that. semiconductors are one of the few industries they are behind in and it wouldn’t even be wise to depend on their rivals for their computing. whether or not they will be able to pull it off before the couple of years it would take for western manufacturers to meet demand, or the ai bubble to burst is anyone’s guess, but i don’t think so. a bit of speculation but i don’t think they would hate to be the gatekeepers of rented cloud computing either so who knows, maybe we do need china to come sooner rather than later and flood the market with cheap chips.
