The issue is you can’t have a “Twitter-like” platform in one day. So the next platform could very well be chinese and you will have just as many problems with them.

I’d rather have no equivalent, and people flocking to federated systems (Fediverse, ATproto being the 2 big names right now). If you have enough instances of sufficient size, not one instance, thus not one person and/or company can dictate everything.

Or, we could just ban it and let the user-base migrate to decentralized alternatives. If govs want to fund instances run by non-profit, good for them and their citizens.

If you want cheaper cars, that’s easy: drop the tariffs on Chinese cars and let them flood the market. Now you have cheap cars and your car makers are dead.

Or you can just announce that if the car average price has not dropped by N % by 202x, you will drop the tariff, and see that your local carmaker are perfectly capable of proposing cheaper vehicles.

And in parallel, given you figure people can no longer afford cars due to salary crunch by inflation, you can develop public transportation.

Oh well… except if the whole thing is just an excuse to deregulate for the benefits of your rich and powerful CEO pals and their shareholders…

China wins what? Except if they already won by far, they have similar AI, with similarly high costs and similarly low value, similarly not worth it. Either they also invest big and will crash just as hard, or they don’t and they’re just enjoying the show of US suiciding its economy through AI.

I’m ready to bet the men worried that women would fuck robots are also jerking off on Tilly Norwood and hope they can create porn videos.

Is that a surprise? Don’t we know enough that when they talk about freedom of speech, they mean they should be allowed to insult and incite violence against minorities, but critics against them should not be allowed?

If these tracks are in the US, so I am. So I shoot the other guy with the gun(s) I usually carry around when I go out and then pull the lever.
