>Who controls the AI controls the world.
Is this any different than the previous tech booms (or any industrial revolution for that matter). The US developed and exported almost all of the consumer (Google, Microsoft, Facebook) and infrastructural software (IP, Verisign, Linux).
The US domination through software is so normalized that the limit of these imports by highly sovereign countries are seen as dangerous or in violation of human rights in the 'western' internet.(China,Russia)
Hard to see how AI will be massively different than the history of Software in general in terms of geopolitical power.

- Novosell 2y agoThe US exported Linux? Linus Torvalds is Finnish and made it in Finland though?
- TZubiri 2y agoSame fallacy as with python and guido van Linus Moved to the US in 2004 and became a citizen with his family later. The linux foundation is a california nfp.
