I agree that China is seriously challenging the West in tech. I have multiple tech consumer products from China (original design) which absolutely mop the floor with the western counterparts in simplicity, usability and reliability while also being very competitive on price.<p>I disagree hard that the solution is throwing more money at the problem. I think the problem is cultural and educational. Focus must shift from delivering the next unicorn related to social media, chat bots, advertising, etc to getting real Tech advancements.
