Two Loops: How China’s Open AI Strategy Reinforces Its Industrial Dominance

This report analyzes the U.S.-China contest over artificial intelligence (AI) and China's “all in” open-source approach, reflecting fundamentally different theories of how AI leadership is won. China’s approach operates in two reinforcing loops: a digital loop of open-model innovation and rapid, community-driven iteration, and a physical loop of large-scale deployment across manufacturing, logistics, and robotics that continuously generates real-world data to improve AI capabilities.
