You are mistaken.
AI is coming and you can't stop progress , so get onboard and embrace your inevitable future.
Just think of all of the things you will be able to do with all of the free time the AI future will provide for you !
We must do whatever it takes to prevent the Chinese from winning the AI arms race, do you want America to be left behind while China owns the future?
If AI fails, all of the highly leveraged data center projects will fail, taking the Stock market and our financial system down with it, do you want to lose your 401k ?
I completely agree we need to keep our edge. But historically, their system is really good at copying what we invent and building it cheaper. To actually ‘own the future,’ you have to invent the next big thing, not just copy the last one. As long as we keep inventing, they'll always be playing catch-up.
America is already outspending China on AI by over 20 to 1. But throwing money at a problem isn't everything. Because we cut off their supply to top-tier chips, they've learned to build things incredibly cheap and efficient. To stay ahead, we can't just rely on our massive bank accounts—we have to keep out-innovating them.
I am an engineer by trade and not embracing AI. It is a glorified search engine. We put men on the moon with a slide rule. All AI will help with is stealing your data and targeting you for ads.
