I feel like we should at least consider that DJI is a mainland Chinese company and nearly all drone innovation in the past decade has originated there. They are no strangers to extreme manufacturing or advanced automated drone technology.
Its funny but when I think of drones and innovation I don't think of china. China just mass produces but for the most part when the current class of true drones were being created I remember a lot of amateurs working on it and others, china being one of them stealing the base tech. Just like 3d printing.
When I think of China I think of serious medical innovations including the cure for fucking HIV and herpes. Idk that they are so great with robotics but I wouldn't really underestimate them.
Those are being tested, not proven treatments for those diseases.
A few people have been cured of HIV from bone marrow transplants but it has to be a super specific set of circumstances like their blood type has to be a certain type and things like that.
And you don't find that remarkable compared to before, when no one had been cured?
So completely not true... there have been multiple cases. First, apparently https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timothy_Ray_Brown

The argument isn't whether the west has innovation, it's whether China does, and they do including this cure for HIV which doesn't rely on donor cells unlike the London & Berlin patients
