It looks like grey goo and skynet are competing to see who will be the next apocalypse.

Hello fellow Californians

They think the problem is AI, when it's actually capitalism and securities fraud.
It's much simpler to fixate on the technology than to have to understand complex things like economics and history.

The Western model was doomed to failure from the start. The only barrier to entry was being able to download thousands of TBs of internet archives/books and to have a lot of compute.
The math for these models isn't proprietary and most CS students are exposed to machine learning and neural networks while in school.
The only advantage western companies had was the ability to buy up the entire hardware market, pricing out domestic competition, and to use their politicians to manipulate trade policy in order to restrict sales of critical hardware to China.
Every US tech company has dumped billions investing in an unsustainable business model with the hope of buying a global monopoly by strangling competition.
China can destroy all of that by making their models open weight. The real money is in finding and implementing custom AI solutions... not in charging for access to the models. By having freely available models, they're making the barrier of entry as low as possible.
Not to mention that the insane amount of money being poured into hardware by US tech companies has created an environment where building fabs has a much shorter ROI, which also helps China's development in that sector.
US companies are playing Monopoly while China is playing Civilization.
That being said, what the law says and what some random asshole does during a stop are not always the same thing.

Most phones can be accessed by forensic software. The more secure phones are protected as long as they've just been restarted but before they're unlocked for the first time.
Some phones, like an up-to-date GrapheneOS on a supported Pixel, may resist forensic imaging after first unlocking but the information is in memory so there could potentially be zero days or other exotic methods of obtaining the data.
A duress wipe lets you know 100% that the data is not accessible.
It probably won't work, at least (US)domestically. The requirement for obtaining a warrant before searching a phone is part of training because there is a clear Supreme Court ruling to that effect.
