> In this report, we describe two clusters of ChatGPT accounts likely originating from China that we banned after they used our models in support of apparent covert influence operations that promoted narratives in an attempt to manipulate a legitimate debate about American AI and wider tech policies.
Why would people in China choose ChatGPT for this? Surely one of the multiple Chinese LLMs would be perfectly suitable for generating social media posts, no?
I don't doubt that the PRC is up to astroturfing shenanigans (they do have a vested interest in convincing the American public to kneecap America's tech sector), but using American LLMs via American services seems like an odd choice for that.
It's entirely possible that the vast majority of those involved do use Chinese LLMs. Some small portion may have used ChatGPT for higher quality posts.

Deepseek, Kimi, GLM have comparable quality to GPT for this purpose. More likely they are lying about it to discredit real opposition to data center expansion.
AI is able to recursively improve its code now, and Anthropic warns we should slow down development before it gets too advanced (reported 2019, and 2026)
PRC-linked influence operations are targeting AI debates
Anthropic and OpenAI holds all the power and will create world utopia
This shit's happening with every topic now. I really wish we'd just start cutting out massive blocks of internet and phones so our old people are not scammed, so our young are not radicalized and our leaders convinced something crazy is happening any more.
America already lost the battle. Multiple administrations on both sides of the aisle have reported China having access to America's lawful intercept wiretap system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_Typhoon
No amount of authoritarian backpedaling will put the genie back in the bottle. They've got blackmail on our politicians, backdoors in our telecoms, and Chinese apps at #1 on the App Store. America is paying for "freedom" through the nose right now, the will to quit using social media and smartphones has to come from within.

I found this article to be more balanced take on the subject:

By freedom you mean freedom to invade other countries? Then don't be surprised those other countries fight back.
Have we invaded China?
