The CCP needs technology the way a chimpanzee needs a machine gun.

For a moment, I thought you were going to say an American needs a machine gun.

Actually, Japan actually has this tech already. NEC is world leader

Yes, quite funny. Anyone interested can do that easily nowadays, neither the Chinese CCP nor a company like NEC needed. You only need the photo or video footage from your devices and then you read a bit about that AI technology in GitHub , adapt it to your personal project and let it run in Kaggle, Colab and such. Takes some hours or a few days for newbies, depending on how motivated and IT capable you already are.

what scares the hell out of me is how many governments, including Japan's, are salivating at acquiring this tech and using it. It won't stop in China- they'll sell it to the whole world.

China is the testing ground for all of this; next stop: your town.

Both sentences made me laugh. One better than the other.
