    She is extremely intelligent. I like how cogent and direct her responses are. I don’t see what’s desirable about a Chinese collapse like the United States it’s integral to the global economy. The better it does the better we all do. There is definitely an economic restructuring and contraction going on in China but I argue it’s happening in the United States and other economies as well such a the UK and nations that are Euro Dependent.

    Judging by the comments, most Westerners just want to believe what they feel comfortable. Ms. Jin has already tuned her tone toward her Western audiance, yet many still accused her doing propaganda for China. Very laughable reaction from those viewers. BTW, she was labeled by Chinese as a pro-west scholar.
    China indeed is in an economical hard time. But mind you that China can still reach 5.4% GDP growth this year, according to IMF.

    insightful, but my question is if the future of the Chinese economy will be driven by AI and automation, isn't it better for foreign countries to have companies within their closer proximity by reducing supply chain issues and increasing self reliance? which means the Chinese unemployment rate will be increasing further isn't it?

    • @liang8255
      @liang8255 9 месяцев назад +3

      Yes, in principle everyone should be able to produce their own things by the application of AI and automation. However, the reality is quite the opposite, majority of the world does not have the ability to develop sufficient AI and automation in manufacturing, in many parts of the world such as Europe, there are labour unions, there are strict privacy laws those will prohibit application of AI and automation. China is indeed ahead in this field due to the system, for instance China could massively use AI cameras and mega data to manage the society where in Western world this is labelled police state, which cannot be realised. That's why if you look at AI camera system, China is pretty much the dominator.
      The list goes on ...
      The there's supply chain and consumption volume. Let's say if Europe wants to build EV batteries, it needs to import pretty much everything and only to assemble them, economically this is not viable. It will significantly cheaper to just purchase batteries, and that what Daimler, BMW, VW are doing.

      @@not_so_genius3642 That’s right. That’s the reason why China is fully focused internally and some regional market. There are still 600 million people earns under 140 Euro/month and that’s the catch where the growth, the market potential is. As authoritarian system, the state/government does have power to distribute/redistribute wealth (unlike private capitalist societies).
      Back to AI, it is very much a monitoring/spying large data network. This means a state should be self reliant otherwise you will let others to peep on you. Europe is a good example of how it has absolutely no control and fully nakedly observed by Washington, in bad times, this brings deadly consequences.

    Perhaps it is time that China has a second look at the '996' phenomenon ( which has now become the '966' phenomenon, I believe ) and seriously consider introducing 'job sharing' for the local labor market on a '994' basis for a full time employee and '992' for a part-time employee without changing the present remuneration structure. That way, the Chinese working life will be less brutal and more relax and gives the the unemployed a chance of participating in the workforce. The disadvantage is that present employees may experience a fall in their total income level as their working hours are now reduced but the total hours for leisure is now increase. Hence, working life is now more relax and gives rise to a large number of part-time openings to cater for the large number of unemployed currently existing in the economy.

      When many companies move their operations to other countries and creating an unemployment problem, no matter how smart you are or how hard working you used to be, you are not going to have a job anyway. Job sharing can help the hardworking and smart unemployed to be productively employed and not be wasted talents. In this way, job sharing can also help in easing social problems. If you are not hard working nor smart, no one wants to hire you anyway and so you can have all the holidays that you want.
