Bottom line: China wins. Self isolation by the USA won't change the overall results. Isolation is weakness, not strength. It is a prescription for economic stagnation, decline and exploitation by home grown corporate interests that won

Cheap, renewable energy offers a competitive advantage to manufacturing and AI. This undoubtedly explains why the current US administration is openly hostile to it.

AI is a messy new legal frontier. AI can and will provide inaccurate facts, bad advice and invalid conclusions. In a lot of these cases, there is plenty of legal ramifications and liability to spread around between those you sell the models

Personally, I think local is the only way AI will thrive or even survive. We've been here before. At one point, standard computing was centralized among a handful of large service providers. Then the PC came along and made it local an

Bottom line: LLMs are just flawed. The results are flawed. The billing is even more flawed. LLMs turn traditional computing upside down. Instead of highly accurate results at low cost, you get questionable results at high cost --- and if y
