“If anything, investors don’t understand what AI is and how profoundly it’s going to change things.”

And the government will find a way to tax, regulate and control it. Profoundly.
Harumph Harumph! We’ll just have to put a stop to that!
How long before some Chinese company buys it???
As soon as they can get a front company to buy it like they are doing for U.S.Steel company.
I used to live right next to one of those mines. Their quartz was used to make the top telescopes lenses.
They will probably be sold to the CCP.
Toledo, the ‘Glass City’ was situated near the Sylvania Sandstone, a very high quality quartz formation that is actually in the form of loose sand for glass mfg. It runs throughout NW Ohio into SE MI. Part of it was excavated during construction of the Livingstone Channel at the entrance to Lake Erie, so we had a few beaches with brilliant white sand on the Detroit River where the material was dredged up.
As soon as the government has passed legislation to control and regulate it, AI will have evolved into something else.
“legislation moves like a snail”
**************
Not when they want to pass something in the dead of night.
A lot of legislation today is rushed through without members having read a word of it.
The government can move quite fast when it really wants to control something.
Those are my favorite beaches. I love having that sugar white sand between my toes.
In fact, some of the "scientists" developing AI admit that they no longer understand it. It's called the "black-box problem or effect."
In other words, humans write the initial code--just enough to get the deep learning process started. And then the AI begins to program itself as it starts consuming data and starts to "learn."
Biden will sell them to China before January 2025.
“Legislators don’t know what AI is.”
***********
They don’t pass legislation on the basis of knowledge. They pass it on the basis of politics.
Few actually bother to read it.
My point is that it is difficult to regulate something that can't be understood or identified. They can't hit a moving target.
“sugar white sand between my toes.”
Squeak Squeak Squeak
You beat me to it.
Have Gates or China bought up the land around it?
It’s the best!
Microsoft (MSFT): $3.176 trillionThey influence politicians directly and indirectly.Apple (AAPL): $2.652 trillion
NVIDIA (NVDA): $2.241 trillion
“My point is that it is difficult to regulate something that can’t be understood or identified. They can’t hit a moving target.”

I get your point. But look what they did with Obamacare. I wouldn’t underestimate their ability to screw up anything.
Things like knowledge, practicality and workability are not their strong suit. Self-interest, political advantage and lust for power are what drives them.
Also what concerns me is the government’s increasing control over every aspect of our lives. When it comes to doing that, and spending money, they are second to none.
Let me guess - woke leftists want to shut them down....
