As someone who works in this field, measuring chip superiority purely by looking at transistor counts and flop/s is a naive approach that will lead to wildly inaccurate conclusions. Scaling memory bandwidth to keep your compute fed with data is a far trickier problem these days than simply stamping out more compute logic and declaring you have a higher theoretical flop/s than your competition. Also, one of the most important factors not mentioned is the compiler/software support for your DSA. It is easy to hand craft code that will boast impressive benchmark performance numbers. However, the real secret sauce is having a robust compiler that can efficiently map general workloads to your DSA. It is for this reason most AI chip start ups will fail, not because of inadequacies in their hardware's architecture.

Whoever made this video doesn’t understand the chip industry at all. As a number of commenters have pointed out, there is a lot of software needed to get value out of these chips. Just because the chip is designed with TSMC’s PDK and has higher transistor count, it doesn’t mean it is faster or more capable. This is like buying a car based on the number of wheels and expect a comparison to be meaningful. The chip industry is more than TSMC and ASML. There are tons of chip design and verification software needed to just design the chip-all of these software packages are subject to export control. Once the wafers are ready, there is a LOT of packaging and testing needed to turn it into a chip-and these are not in China either. Finally, chips that big have 10s of thousands of very skilled asic engineers spending years of their life dedicated to the craft. The bottom line is, it’s not like cloning a DVD player.

Processor chips can be describe like this: "A truck cannot outrun the speed of a Lamborghini." Larger size does not equate stronger processing power.

For decades, the dominating policy approach to chips in China was to import them rather than to make them in China. The late-comer status of Chinese chip knowhow & the immense cost of catching up we're the primary reasons. This approach dominated Chinese policy making until Trump initiating attack on Huawei. At which time, and rather belatedly, the Chinese policy makers realized there was no running away from ploughing immense sums into tech self sufficiency. Biden is one anecdotal success story but it remains to be seen how fast can the Chinese achieve genuine self sufficiency in chip technology. So the Chinese have Trump & Biden to thank for forcing a change in the policy direction from integrating in the global chip supply chains to carving out their own chip supply chains. I say good luck today them. Knowing full well the immense difficulty & still yet determined to overcome it in the midst of a whole-of-country effort by the US to suppress them certainly earns my respect for them.

Yes, it does, because of the speed of light. The speed of light limits how much information can travel between transistors inside a single chip. The chip size is physically limited by how clean the silicon crystal can get. Interconnects between chips are very expensive and much slower than on-chip routing. Hence, smaller transistors = more transistors in a chip, and a more capable chip. It makes a huge difference, this is why everyone is talking about it.

The answer is "No" for any question in a title. A headline with a question mark at the end means that the story is tendentious or over-sold. It is often a scare story, or an attempt to elevate some run-of-the-mill piece of reporting into a national controversy and, preferably, a national panic.

As for the space station being a prestige project there are many prideful country in the world. Yet none can really say they could do it on their own right now. And one final note generally the reason something is prestigious is because it is difficult to achievement. it is not prestigious if it is easy to achieve, right. The Chinese clearly have a track record of achieving difficult things.
