>You didn't hurt my feelings. You came on here and boasted about how weak your country was.

This is a very bizarre response. Don't mind if I screenshot this and write an email. Very strange behaviour.

The comparisons between the two nations are always superficial. When you peel the layers of nonsense off, it is just white supremacy with a mediocre attempt at masking it.

I obviously hurt your feelings but thank you for the facts that clearly changes everything.

Japan never colonised India, Japan never colonised an African nation, Japan never colonised a Caribbean nation.

Britain overnight cannot have a fresh start from its past, even the royals have ties to other nations. The England that was always English never existed and its history will always be rooted in the British empire (where the sun never set).

Because of the World Cup with the article fails to mention.

The belief (for some) is that it will create new jobs like previous revolutions. No one has said what those will look like yet though.

I'm only giving a neutral perspective. The moment the world stops relying on oil, Iran will lose its biggest leverage in this situation. Other sources of energy are going to be pushed even more.

There has been a lot of posturing from both sides, this is probably going to continue for a couple of months more before they reach equilibrium.

There isn't US boots on the ground because that would be absolute suicide, have you followed anything that's been going on? It is an asymmetric war they cannot win.

And yes "decentralised" meaning we have personal echo-chambers or a swarm of Elon sycophant accounts with inflated number of views and bots mass liking each extremist post. LLMs are going to put astroturfing campaigns on steroids.

Unfortunately we are/have been run by sociopaths like Boris Johnson who indeed do think this is a good thing.

"Former British PM Boris Johnson says falling birthrates ‘best news in long time’"

"Mr Johnson said the promised productivity gains from AI should mean less need for population growth"

"They can’t simultaneously complain that machines are making human workers unnecessary while also demanding that we import or create more human beings to do the work.”"

Those with high agency may have even greater agency, but I can also see the inverse effect.

Whether it "needs to" is its own debate.

I'm just pointing out that even with mobile phones becoming dramatically better over the past decade, that hasn't really led to the transformation of mobile apps (outside of games) that take advantage of those resources. If anything, developers have arguably become more lazy and we are seeing lower quality software being deployed because people now have enough RAM even for your 500mb static webpage. Do we really believe people will start becoming more ambitious with AI or will most suffer from skill atrophy and less agency?

Does every business scale that way? Sure video games for example have only required more people and resources to develop games as the ability to create larger scale games have increased. But does that really apply to accounting? Not a rhetorical question.

Actually you can for entry level jobs. You also shouldn't just look at unemployment but underemployment.

>Overall, 42% of recent college graduates were classified as underemployed, the highest level since 2020.

Social experiment: What would happen if you gave the local homeless billions of dollars and adderall?

>doesn’t make them any less dangerous in the wrong hands.

what do you think my comment said you halfwit.

Funny, it seems Asian countries are more optimistic than Western countries [1]. Maybe this says more about the people running these countries than the technology itself. Technology is just a tool after all.

It wasn't LSTMs, it was RNNs.

Actually, layoffs are still happening tomorrow.

The numbers speak for itself. What has had the same level of user growth?

I wouldn't be surprised if AI is also influencing how people talk/write. I felt like I used it is not x it is y a couple of times recently and not sure whether I am just being more aware of it or if it is becoming a part of my own writing pattern because of LLMs.

Your average person is never going to do this. Sure, some people can do their own plumbing but the average person will just pay to get it done.

So far the responses are more about anecdotes than general trends.

The tech industry is just eating itself. Other fields seem nowhere near as impacted.

Too big to fail. If big tech fails, America goes down with it so it will never happen. Other people will pay the price.

You can't look at the evidence and just dismiss it as "irrelevant' because you feel like it or because "the west does it as well" when your whole argument is the lack of foreign interference from China due to "wisdom". We can extrapolate from their hostile actions (even the non-physical ones) and how they treat their own citizens how they would further treat other nations if they could get away with more.

China does behave in a very methodical way, but that does not mean it is not a hostile nation.

Your whole argument is that low IQ leads to an undeveloped country rather than impoverishment leads to lower IQ. I don't think it is entirely one way.

IQ is also only one (mediocre) signal you are putting a lot of emphasis on. India does not score well, yet it is clearly emerging and has very successful individuals from mathematics to chess.

As crazy as this might sound to some people these days, I actually like driving.

>Wasn't another car on the market that checked those boxes.

Outside of "drives itself", I fail to see how much of what you described is unique. Seems very ordinary.

"cutting deals" lol this was just yesterday: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0m2wjlkzplo

Going by your history, you clearly have a strong bias for China but adding spyware or putting countries into debt isn't virtuous.
