Beyond the Cloud: China’s Edge in Stand-Alone Personal AI

The age of cloud-hosted, subscription-based AI is already showing cracks, with most enterprise pilots failing to deliver profit and users growing hostile to rent-seeking intermediaries. The next decisive shift will be toward stand-alone, device-local Personal AI—agents that live on laptops, tablets, and phones, under the direct control of their users. With mid-tier chip capacity, mass hardware distribution, and fewer ideological hang-ups about intermediation, China is structurally positioned to seize the lead in this transition, potentially leapfrogging Western incumbents still trapped in the cloud model.
