Chinese culture values altruism to people who aren’t family members or otherwise in the ingroup less than the West. The Western intellectual tradition has concepts like every one being equal and having human rights that don’t exist the same way in Confucianism.
In practice, USG policy frequently isn’t that altruistic either and takes actions based on non-altruistic reasons and later rationalizes them as being altruistic, but at least there’s some ideal of altruism. Given the intellectual tradition, USG AGI might adhere to the values of the intellectual tradition, especially if you have people at the AI company care about altruism. This is less likely with CCP AGI in the backdrop of Confucianism values that don’t even care about signaling altruism.
As a non-citizen who’s not in the Chinese ingroup, I would expect that USG AGI to be more likely to care about your needs than CCP AGI.
