    FILE 16. Headline: The AI Bubble: China’s Strategic Intellectual Property Theft Guest: Brandon Ward and Gordon Chang Summary: China is allegedly using stolen American intellectual property to train its artificial intelligence models, such as Moonshot’s Kimmy K3. Brandon Ward suggests this is a strategic move to collapse the inflated market value of the American AI sector. Gordon Chang warns that despite export bans, Chinese firms continue to acquire high-end Nvidia chips, complicating US strategic plans and economic dominance while threatening a potential future shooting war.
