China is becoming the new world technology development leader.
Shouldn't be surprising given that China has a huge and well educated population. China outnumber USA STEM Grads 8 to 1 and project to be 15 to 1 by 2030. China has also overtaken the US both in quantity and quality of research. And of course, China has a huge advantage with the state playing a major role in guiding the type of technology China focuses on instead of leaving it to the markets. So, it should be no surprise that China is already surpassing the west technologically now, and the gap will only keep growing going forward.
I am certainly not surprised.
I don't think anybody who's been paying attention is, but seems to be a shock for a lot of people in the west who've internalized the narrative that China just steals western tech and makes cheap stuff.
So the cyberpunk future of the 80's of foreign mega corporations are coming true.
With a healthy mix of state owned enterprise. :)
Sure, the chinese are just copying everything, they don’t research and develop new technologies. Mhm. Your 1980s racism needs an update.

Or they read the same thing from Japan a few months ago.
Really, different countries are doing research on solid-state batteries, who’da thunk.
What does that have to do with China allegedly being an „appropriation committee“?
Those two reports have literally nothing in common except the words „breakthrough“ and „solid-state batteries“, lol.
You absolutely don’t understand anything at all, so please just stop talking. Thank you.
Yeah beyond being about breakthroughs specifically about solid electrolytes, nothing in common. lol
good grief… 🤦♀️
I mean you really do not have to know anything about this technology or even physics at all to understand that they’re working on completely different parts of that technology. How can anyone have reading comprehension skills that bad and still need to die on their little hill?
So is my potato battery a solid electrolyte
