What do you prefer? Selfish and intelligent? (libs) or Selfish and not intelligent? (Trumpists) Also keep in mind, both are arrogant when they're in power.

My cast below was before R1. It took Chinese only 20 days after I predicted that they'd surpass the West even in English LLMs. They'll win in chips too. If not this year, then the next. As @catabolismo's thread from yesterday says: Capitalism is not good at allocating resources. Just like US pivoted to a gov't planned Apollo Program after Sputnik, US will pivot to a planned approach for AI too. Invisible hand cannot compete with intelligent planning.

Americans can't believe their system can raise, embolden and elect a leader that takes evil actions. It has to be planned with a foreign adversary, surely it must be an evil mastermind who wants to destroy our otherwise perfectly functional system. It's a one off! Anything to avoid confronting a systematic failure!

As you know, normie leftists have been very skeptical of AI, and one thing they quoted often was how a day of 20 ChatGPT queries were equivalent to 30 mins of AC usage. I wonder if DeepSeek being 33x more efficient would change their mind.

As George Carlin said... It's a big club and you ain't in it! Your taxes are literally subsidizing oligarch compute but not home compute.

Supporting resistance movements should not be criminalized. Resistance movements form against occupying forces and are cornered into a place to take desparate measures. For example: Ukrainian forces attacked Russian refineries & their workers multiple times. That's because they're invaded by an occupying force.

> the economic arguments for why markets are so great for "regular" goods and services do not extend to "markets for political influence" or maybe markets have never been as efficient as they're promoted in the long run, they are only efficient in extremely limited constraints and timeframes Yet another obituary for the invisible hand

This seems pretty interesting. Mao Xiangdong, Vice President of Shanghai Institute of Technology said that Shanghai could open up to global internet, including access to FB, Instagram, X, etc. If this goes through & if TikTok ban remains in effect, soon we may have a situation where more media is censored in the USA than in China. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/UuuYMael-N2QWyQ5aDXheQ

Remarkable levels of ignorance unlocked. I wish they used AI but maybe too lazy. Here you go: `Why is syria owed money for starting a civil war in their own country?` US invasion of Iraq disbanded Saddam's army which formed the majority of ISIS. Additionally, most of the weapons Al Qaeda used to grow and expand into Syria are US weapons. Further, Israel (whcih US funds) occupies several parts of Syria. `Why is palestine owed money for a decades long conflict and reigniting a war with a massacre?` In total, US sent $340 billion to Israel in its lifetime for the Palestinian genocide Israel has been committing. This is the largest amount any country sent to any other country in world history. US also lent democratic support US in world stage for DECADES. `Why is South America owed money for failing to keep quality of life high enough so people don’t migrate?` CIA orchestrated 25+ coups in Latin America in 20th century. US also funded multiple paramilitaries during the redscare.
