Ah, yes. They abuse AI. Good thing nobody else uses their AI to advance their way of thinking.

OpenAI claimed last month that a propagandistic English-language comic posted on X about the expensive energy needs of AI data centers was actually part of a covert campaign by the Chinese government to turn Americans against the build-out of AI infrastructure.

So open AI is doing what every regime does when facing backlash over there unpopular decisions, blame it on foreigners.
