A former Pentagon official has warned that the Chinese Communist Party is sending people to infiltrate American businesses. In addition, the Department of Defense needs to do a better job of working with the tech industry to prevent China from achieving dominance in the field of artificial intelligence, the former official said.
“The fact is, the Chinese Communist Party is really sending a lot of people to our universities and to our most innovative companies,” said Nicolas Chaillan, the former chief software officer for the U.S. Air Force and Space Force. “And there is a very big risk of exfiltration of data from within.”
