They also discuss China’s position in the AI race, ASML’s role in advanced chip production, open-weight Chinese models, local AI for offensive security research, and how organizations should prepare for AI-accelerated vulnerabilities, supply-chain attacks, exposed AI infrastructure, and sensitive data captured in LLM logs.
