1
As we drove to this oil facility three hours south of Beijing,
2
it was soon clear we weren't welcome.
3
These guys are just trying to block the camera, basically.
4
A black van pulled up,
5
blocking our view of one of the many refineries dotting China's coast.
6
Security here is really tight.
7
This is a facility which is sanctioned by the US government for allegedly importing Iranian oil.
8
Iran sends most of its oil to China.
9
That trade is in the spotlight ahead of President Trump's arrival in Beijing this week,
10
with the U.S.-Iran ceasefire under strain.
11
The day before Trump departed for China,
12
Washington blacklisted a dozen people and entities it says are linked to the trade of oil from Iran to China.
13
Five Chinese oil refineries and multiple port terminals have been sanctioned by the U.S since last year for allegedly importing Iranian oil.
14
The company we visited, Hebei Xinhai, was sanctioned last May.
15
It declined CNN's request to be interviewed.
16
It was hard to tell what kind of oil the plant was processing,
17
but sanctions clearly hadn't shut it down.
18
The U.S has been increasingly imposing sanctions on Chinese entities it believes are involved in the trade of oil from Iran.
19
They are the largest state sponsor of terrorism,
20
and China has been financing them with their energy purchases.
21
For its part, China doesn't acknowledge importing Iranian oil.
22
It also rejects U.S sanctions and has been pushing back.
23
Earlier this month, Beijing ordered companies not to comply with sanctions on refineries.
24
Multiple ports south of me here,
25
as well as across the ocean in this direction,
26
are believed to have continued to import Iranian oil throughout the course of the war.
27
This oil is carried by a network of vessels,
28
including those known as the Shadow Fleet.
29
The oil is loaded in Iran and shipped out,
30
often to a floating gas station off the coast of Malaysia,
31
where dozens of boats loiter with their tracking devices turned off,
32
trading sanctioned oil and ferrying it to buyers, like those in China.
33
CNN pinpointed one such transfer,
34
where the Iranian flag vessel Herbie transferred oil to a China-bound tanker just last month.
35
Weeks later, the Herbie was intercepted by the US Navy on its way back to Iran.
36
Once those ship-to-ship transfers are complete,
37
ships heading for China blend in with thousands of other vessels regularly transiting through these waters.
38
For the US, that's a major problem.
39
But for China, this oil flow is powering its economy and keeping a close partner afloat.

41
The AI rivalry between the U.S and China is entering a new phase.
42
As the two superpowers race for dominance in artificial intelligence,
43
a new report finds that the gap between them has now nearly vanished, despite U.S chip restrictions.
44
Hades Gold has our details.
45
And we're leading China in AI.
46
And I'm going to go see President Xi in two weeks.
47
I look forward to that.
48
But I'll say I'm leading.
49
We have very friendly competition.
50
That was President Trump recently commenting on the AI race between the US and China.
51
But according to Stanford's 2026 AI Index,
52
produced by the university's Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence,
53
the gap in AI performance between the two nations has now effectively closed.
54
The gap is very small and then the US model will release
55
and it'll perform a bit better and then the Chinese models will catch up.
56
And that's the trend that we have been seeing over the past year.
57
Take a look at this chart.
58
American and Chinese AI models are now effectively neck and neck on key performance benchmarks.
59
The report finds the U.S still leads in top tier model releases.
60
But China leads in research publications and robotics deployment.
61
Many experts are closely monitoring the trend.
62
Robotics is an area where I think Chinese innovators have been doing phenomenally impressive work.
63
There are some areas in which I think China has also arguably been leading the way.
64
So in advanced video generation,
65
for example, several Chinese models have been absolutely state-of-the-art.
66
The Stanford report also says the U.S still invests far more money in the field than any other country.
67
Private investment in the U.S totaled more than $280 billion last year,
68
about 23 times more than China's $12 billion.
69
In between 2024 and 2025,
70
we saw almost double the corporate investment global or the private investment globally around the world.
71
That is largely driven in the U.S.,
72
though other countries such as China do have more public investment.
73
China's DeepSeek recently unveiled its new model, V4.
74
The startup took the global AI industry by storm last year with its groundbreaking release of the R1 model.
75
It delivered near-industry leading performance at what DeepSeq said was a fraction of the cost.
76
Unlike R1, which used NVIDIA chips,
77
V4 is running on domestically produced chips,
78
following restrictions on China's access to cutting-edge American chips,
79
such as NVIDIA's Blackwell, under Washington's export controls.
80
And they've developed efficiency innovations to try to squeeze more performance out of less cutting-edge chips.
81
So in some ways, the export control constraints have forced Chinese companies to innovate in a unique way.
82
And unlike most American AI labs,
83
many Chinese firms have also embraced an open source strategy,
84
making their internal model weights available for anyone around the world.
85
Their strategy is build up a community ecosystem
86
and try to take advantage of the network effects
87
that come from building that open source ecosystem as a way to catch up.
88
Meanwhile, the White House is accusing Chinese AI firms of copying American models through what it calls industrial scale campaigns.
89
At the center of the allegations is a process known as distillation,
90
a technique used to transfer knowledge from one model to another.
91
But Beijing firmly rejecting the claims,
92
saying such allegations are groundless and are deliberate attacks on China's development and progress in the AI industry.
93
As the world's two largest economies push to dominate AI,
94
the competition is only intensifying.

96
China held its annual humanoid robot half marathon.
97
That thing is flying.
98
You see that there yesterday in Beijing.
99
Yes, this is the thing where machines race alongside hundreds of humans on a 13-mile Of course,
100
they've all got their phones out while doing it.
101
A Chinese Android, aptly named Lightning,
102
outran the entire field with a time of 50 minutes and 26 seconds,
103
which happens to be more than six minutes faster than any human has ever run a half marathon.
104
I want to bring in CNN contributor and tech journalist Jacob Ward.
105
He's the host of the Rip Current podcast.
106
Thanks for being here.
107
Can you just help us understand what was actually achieved here and why it's so significant?
108
well i think one of the thing that is
109
so significant about this i mean you know like 10 years
110
ago i took a camera crew to a raceway in florida to try
111
and watch something like this and in
112
that case robots were trying to open doors and drive jeeps
113
and so forth i thought it was going to make great tv
114
and it was a disaster i got in huge amounts of trouble for it
115
because they just failed and failed
116
and failed the most simple tasks used to elude robots now you have as you're seeing in this footage,
117
a robot able to run faster than a human,
118
yes, but also more than an hour faster than it did just a year ago at the inaugural race.
119
And so why this is such an important thing,
120
I mean, this company Honor that makes this robot,
121
it's a phone company, is talking about converting this into something like an industrial scenario, right?
122
So there go huge numbers of factory jobs.
123
If you have a bipedal robot that can fit into human spaces and work with human tools,
124
And then, you know, don't forget here,
125
Omar, right, the pipeline between this and the military use of something like this is a very short one.
126
That's where the funding tends to come from.
127
And China dominates the market in bipedal and quadrupedal robots.
128
And so this is not just a fun thing to watch, although it is.
129
It's also got enormous geopolitical implications here, Omar.
130
And so that's the thing.
131
Like, yeah, if you're just watching this video,
132
you know, hate to put down people's progress.
133
But a part of me is like, all right, so what?
134
But many machines can run faster or move faster than humans.
135
Plus, it's not like these robots will be competing with humans in terms of racing.
136
Now you point out that industry,
137
there could be a whole different set of competition here.
138
But just more broadly speaking,
139
what does this sort of set up?
140
Now that you've seen these results,
141
robots running faster, moving more efficiently,
142
what is sort of the next step here?
143
Well, it raises two questions for me.
144
The first is, right,
145
how quickly do you then have an entire industrial base in China where humanoid robotics steps in for human work
146
and puts out products at an incredibly faster pace than we've ever seen?
147
I mean, I've already been to demonstrations in which you're seeing the combination of robotics and the large language models,
148
the chat GPT style interfaces where suddenly you can just say to a robot,
149
hey, go over there and pick up the blue box and bring it to me.
150
You don't need technical skills to do it.
151
So we're at this paradigm suddenly where this thing is truly a coworker in a whole new way.
152
That could be transformative for jobs.
153
And I'm not sure necessarily in a good way,
154
at least in the short term.
155
And then there's the larger philosophical question, right? just
156
because this thing can run a marathon faster than a human does, should it?
157
I mean, there's going to be so many things,
158
I think,
159
coming up where we are basically entering a period of history
160
where the limits on what robots can do is no longer going to be the issue.
161
It's going to be a question of what we want to reserve for ourselves.
162
Just because robots can make art better than we can or run a marathon faster than we can,
163
does that mean we stop making art?
164
Do we stop running for fun?
165
All of this stuff, I think,
166
is going to sort of pose a fundamental question to the human species
167
in a way that we are not prepared for here, Omar.
168
Yeah, I am not prepared for it, for one.
169
But look, progress moves faster than comprehension sometimes.
170
Before we let you go,
171
I want to stay in the world of robotics and ask about one of our colleagues,
172
CNN's Will Ripley, did a report on China training robot dogs and attack drones.
173
And I just wonder, when you look at sort of where the world of robotics is used next,
174
is that as much as where things are going in terms of military as it is industry like working at a warehouse?
175
Yeah, it is absolutely the place that so much of this winds up,
176
not least because that's where the funding comes from.
177
The Office of Naval Research here in the United States is one of the major funders of robotics,
178
and certainly in China that is true.
179
There is a continuum between the industrial base of China and the military use of this stuff.
180
And we've seen, I mean,
181
as recently as last year,
182
we saw the PLA scientists talking about in China,
183
talking about putting enormous munitions onto robotics.
184
And so I think we're entering a world,
185
yeah, where we with that question,
186
we were asking each other right about should robots make art?
187
Should robots run marathons?
188
Suddenly we're in a place where should robots make war?
189
And if we cheapen the cost,
190
the human cost of making war on the one thing,
191
on the one hand, that's a good thing.
192
On the other hand, the political tolerance for sending robots into war,
193
waging war, is a lot higher than it is for sending humans in.
194
And suddenly we're in a whole other question where do we want robots making war
195
if it's going to cause us to make it more often, Omar?
196
President Trump says he doubts tensions between Taiwan and Beijing will erupt on his watch.
197
One of the island's most outspoken lawmakers wants more discussion with the mainland.
198
Taiwan's opposition leader tells CNN dialogue with Beijing is the only way to avoid war.
199
She spoke to our senior international correspondent, Will Ripley.
200
As President Donald Trump heads to Beijing for a high-stakes meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping,
201
with Taiwan expected to be high on the agenda,
202
the island democracy that China claims as its own seems to be sending a divided message on defense.
203
After months of political fighting,
204
and with Chinese fighter jets and warships routinely circling around Taiwan,
205
the opposition-controlled legislature approved a dramatically smaller military package.
206
Many blamed the gridlock on the leader of Taiwan's largest opposition party,
207
KMT, Zhengliwen, who has called for less military spending.
208
What's your response to calls from U.S lawmakers that Taiwan needs to spend this money on its defense
209
to send the message to the global community that Taiwan is serious about its defense?
210
Actually, we are very serious.
211
We have been serious all the time.
212
And that's why we keep explaining.
213
We are trying our best.
214
Some fear her best may not be enough to deter China's mounting military pressure campaign.
215
The opposition plan funds U.S weapons but trims domestic programs like drones.
216
Taiwan's ruling party, the DPP,
217
has accused Zheng's KMT of taking orders from China.
218
Just weeks ago, she went to Beijing for a rare meeting with Xi Jinping,
219
who refuses to engage with Taiwan's elected leader,
220
seen by China as a die-hard separatist.
221
You obviously have your critics that accused you of being a pawn while you were in Beijing,
222
saying that you and Xi Jinping had almost the same language.
223
Although I have a common language in this part,
224
but it is because the two sides have a huge war.
225
So we must find a common foundation to open a peace conversation.
226
Otherwise, the war is not possible.
227
Next month, Zheng heads to the U.S.,
228
hoping to convince lawmakers and Trump allies Taiwan does not have to choose between Washington and Beijing.
229
You've said publicly you're worried about Taiwan being treated like a pawn.
230
Are you talking about the United States treating Taiwan like a pawn?
231
I think it's a political government's wrong.
232
It's the only way to make Taiwan a choice.
233
We don't have to be with the United States.
234
Zheng dodges questions about her presidential ambitions,
235
but does make a bold promise if her party wins in the 2028 elections.
236
The government's administration will prevent any fight.
237
How can you guarantee it won't happen
238
if Taiwan doesn't have what your military leaders say are enough weapons to deter military action by China?
239
But China's military pressure around Taiwan continues,
240
even during Zheng's recent trip to Beijing.
241
And now, as Trump prepares to meet Xi Jinping face-to-face,
242
Taiwan confronts two radically different visions for avoiding war.
243
And this really underscores, Alex,
244
the debate that's happening here in Taiwan right now.
245
You have the KMT side,
246
which says you need to have dialogue with Beijing.
247
They are stalling the passage of the remaining $15 billion of this defense bill
248
that the DPP says needs to be urgently passed so that Taiwan can bolster its military deterrence.
249
The State Department, in a statement to CNN, said it's unhelpful stalling.
250
And they're saying it's essentially handing a concession to the Chinese Communist Party right before the Trump-Xi summit.
251
In fact, there are some Taiwanese security officials accusing Beijing of using Cheng Li-wen to shape the narrative ahead of the summit.
252
But she claims that Xi Jinping told her behind closed doors
253
that China respects Taiwan's democratic system and that the two sides can coexist peacefully without having to arm up to the teeth.
254
But of course, even while she was in Beijing having that meeting,
255
Alex, Chinese military drills around Taiwan were continuing.
256
China's censors not stopping new AI videos like these,
257
mocking President Donald Trump and the Iran war.
258
On Chinese social media, the message is clear.
259
So far, he says the biggest winner is neither the U.S nor Iran.
260
It's China.
261
President Trump is set to meet Chinese leader Xi Jinping in Beijing next month.
262
Online reaction?
263
Blunt.
264
Trump is not welcome to visit,
265
and even if he comes, it's meaningless.
266
No need to come.
267
Without credibility, what are you coming for?
268
That word keeps coming up.
269
Credibility.
270
Especially when it comes to ceasefire messaging.
271
The entire White House's credit score combined wouldn't be enough to even unlock a single shared bike.
272
Every day, Trump wakes up and reformats himself into a new Trump.
273
Whatever version he is that day is the one that counts.
274
This whole thing is really about no nuclear.
275
They cannot have a nuclear weapon.
276
In China, political speech is tightly controlled,
277
but criticism of Trump seems to be spreading freely.
278
How does that change the dynamic of this meeting with President Xi?
279
I don't think it does.
280
I mean, he's somebody that needs oil.
281
We don't.
282
China is Iran's biggest oil customer.
283
Beijing also dominates green energy and claims to be cutting oil demand by more than a million barrels a day.
284
While others are still bashing their heads in over oil,
285
we've already gotten ahead in the next era, he says.
286
Solar, wind, batteries and electric vehicles.
287
Chinese carmaker BYD now overtaking Tesla in global sales.
288
At the same time, pressure on the U.S dollar,
289
the backbone of global oil trading.
290
This Iranian embassy post says it's time to add petroyuan to the market.
291
At one point, Iran considered allowing tankers through the Strait of Hormuz only if oil is sold in Chinese yuan,
292
a senior Iranian official said.
293
Some Chinese influencers say petrodollar is ending.
294
Ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, ring.
295
Beijing's not fighting this war,
296
but on China's social media,
297
many are already declaring victory.
298
And right when we started talking about censorship inside China,
299
Aaron, the signal inside China went to bars and tone.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법
쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
