ChinAI

While traditional media and experts on China offer valuable perspectives through in-depth reporting and vast experience, ChinAI offers a fresh viewpoint. It believes that the best insights on many issues come from Chinese individuals sharing their thoughts in their own language. By translating articles and documents from government agencies, think tanks, established media, and newer "self-media" sources, ChinAI delivers a distinctive perspective on the connection between a rapidly evolving China and the transformative technology shaping our world.
