And to further back up what Ben Norton is slinging. A follow up to show how our billionaire oligarchy is influencing our policy making under the new administration. We are a financialized capitalist economy nowadays. No doubt about it. And our means to influence our national interests around the world now is with threats. Do our bidding or this will happen to you.
We're deindustrialized, our cost of living is too high to reinvigorate industry. And now even our advantage with technology is countered making it uncompetitive. Our oligarchy want's a monopolized system of monetary return that is in jeopardy. This AI conundrum shows how we roll. And its got square wheels.

As this technology gets more assimilated into commerce the more government and investment whether private or state controlled gets involved.

Blogger Kevin Walmsley of Inside China/Business puts out detailed analysis of what the trends are between the US and China, that now are so adversarial as a result of US hegemony policy from an empire losing its grip to control world affairs.

Two blog posts here explain the dilemma the US faces with one of its last ace cards of export dominance. Computer chip design and implementation of the emerging AI "revolution" as is touted.

One is the infrastructure needed coming from the electrical grid to power this technology that our government has let stagnate for decades and the other is the cost outlay in using the chip hardware for running the AI architecture. Both of these aspects have China with the advantage. As they seem to with everything nowadays.

Because they, as their government, invested and planned out their economy for the future. While ours flails about helter-skelter with whatever the market dictates and the planning of Wall Street will invest in.
