    Has China Already Won the Tech Race? | Silk and Steel

    The technological competition between China and the United States is entering a new phase—and many of the assumptions that dominated the past decade are being challenged. In this episode of the Silk & Steel Podcast, Carl Zha welcomes back technology analyst TP Huang for a sweeping discussion on artificial intelligence, semiconductors, Huawei's latest breakthroughs, robotics, space technology, energy systems, and the future of global innovation. They examine whether China's technology ecosystem has reached "escape velocity" despite years of export controls and sanctions, why Huawei's semiconductor strategy may be more important than many observers realize, and how China's AI sector has evolved into one of the most competitive innovation environments in the world. The conversation also explores DeepSeek, Alibaba's Qwen models, ByteDance's AI ambitions, humanoid robotics, satellite constellations, quantum computing, energy technologies, and the industries most likely to shape the next decade. If you want to understand where the global technology race is heading, this is a conversation you don't want to miss. Topics Covered ✅ Huawei's latest semiconductor breakthroughs ✅ Tail-scaling vs traditional Moore's Law ✅ China's AI ecosystem and startup competition ✅ DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, Doubao, and China's AI models ✅ Can America maintain its compute advantage? ✅ The impact of US export controls ✅ China's semiconductor supply chain ✅ Embodied AI and humanoid robotics ✅ Manufacturing and industrial automation ✅ Satellite constellations and the future of space ✅ SpaceX vs China's commercial space sector ✅ Quantum computing developments ✅ Rare earths and strategic resources ✅ Energy innovation and next-generation infrastructure ✅ The future of the US-China technology competition Key Takeaways • China's technology sector is no longer dependent on copying foreign innovations and is increasingly driving original breakthroughs. • Huawei's strategy focuses on system-level innovation rather than simply chasing the smallest process nodes. • China's AI ecosystem combines powerful technology giants with intensely competitive startups. • Export controls have accelerated domestic investment across key technology sectors. • Robotics, AI infrastructure, semiconductors, and space technology may become China's strongest competitive advantages over the next decade. • The future technology race will be determined by entire industrial ecosystems—not just individual companies. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

    Be Creative!

    This week’s banter between Mike, Charles, and Jerm makes the case that creativity is fundamentally an act of resistance — a way to refuse to let societal control and conformity flatten you into a passive consumer. Distraction culture and consumerism are designed to keep people scrolling instead of making things. That is no accident. When you look at movements like punk and blues, you see the same pattern: they started as raw, rebellious forms of self-expression, but commercialisation watered them down and sold them back to people stripped of their edge. Community is crucial here — creativity thrives when people share ideas and support each other, not in isolation. And it is not just about inspiration; you need practical skills and education to actually express yourself. Without the tools, the urge to create does not go anywhere. Algorithms can mimic style, but they cannot replicate the human drive to make something — that drive is essential to what it means to be a person. Creativity isn't just a nice hobby either; it is necessary for personal growth and for society to actually move forward rather than to become useless eaters. ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

    Charles Malet | A Thousand Words (Part 1 of 3)

    Charles Malet | A Thousand Words (Part 1 of 3) In Part One of this conversation, Charles Malet and Jake Fern discuss truth, control, fear, and what it means to truly think for yourself. From media narratives and public opinion to personal responsibility and sovereignty of mind, they explore why so many people feel trapped between wanting freedom and wanting to be told what to do. The discussion moves through childhood trauma, power structures, honesty, independent thinking, and the psychological pressure of living in a society that increasingly treats disagreement as dangerous. Charles reflects on his experiences in the military, policing, and journalism, while Jake brings a personal and philosophical perspective to the conversation. Despite the heavy subjects, this is ultimately a hopeful discussion — about staying grounded, remaining curious, and refusing to lose your humanity. A conversation about courage, authenticity, and the importance of carrying on with clarity and optimism, even in difficult times.

    Rockefellers Were Behind the Change in Music Frequency | Jerm Warfare

    Jerm interviews Alex Michael, aka the Conspiracy Music Guru. He traces his musical journey, the impact of events like 9/11 on his work, and the controversial debate around music tuning standards — specifically 440 Hz versus 432 Hz. Alex explains how these frequencies affect well-being and the healing power of music, as backed by various studies. The conversation highlights how Alex's music has evolved, driven by a desire to weave critical messages into his art. Alex goes on to discuss the significance of tuning in music, particularly the differences between 432 Hz and the standard 440 Hz. He explores how mainstream artists are often boxed in by industry standards, which limits their creative freedom. The discussion digs into the emotional impact of music frequencies on listeners, the challenges artists face within the industry, and the conspiracy theories that surround iconic musicians. Alex also shares his insights on music production, the importance to create music with a message, and practical ways for both musicians and listeners to explore alternative tunings. https://www.conspiracymusicguru.com ► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live ► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/ ► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/ ► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficial Follow #UKColumn on: ► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn ► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news
