"Just as centuries ago, rulers listen to them. The Biden administration bet Americans’ national security on the proposition that AGI was right around the corner, while the Trump administration and its allies in the Gulf seem to believe that AI will help make a world where they will be in charge."

The Biden administration ignored AI and allowed China to catch up. The Trump administration realizes that if certain countries get ahead with AI, it will be worse for everyone.

The Liberals want to hobble the industry and control it for political gain, automatically giving China an advantage. It really does seem like they are working with China.

Most people here can't even take Flock cameras in their city. I can't imagine how they would feel with the level if surveillance China has right now in all of their major cities.

It seems like if Trump wants something, it's automatically opposed. Even if it's something correct/better. This kind of thinking will only lead to your own pain and suffering.
