There is a reason states don’t have military 😉

I really don’t think their goal is consumers.

Sure they want consumers to use generative AI so that they get quality feedback so they can improve the product. But that is not the goal.

The goal is enterprises, the goal is replacing workers with AI.

There are estimations that around 300B$ have spent so far for generative AI. This is not for a gadget that close to no-one likes and burns money rather than make money

This is for removing humans from the productive cycle. It is such an ambitious goal that the various CEOs/shareholders are ok taking such an high risk gamble.

Trump will ditch any red tape to AI because Trump openly wants this world, a world where there isn’t any more the need for immigrants or workers or unions.

My ingenuity suggests me that this plan will fail on technical grounds but if it will not, it will be worse. There will be poverty and civil unrest, there will be instability and wars (it’s always easier to look for the enemy outside rather than inside) and, in the end, economy will not do great either (who will buy the crap people will produce?)

Again, I think that this plan will fail on technological grounds but removing red tapes will not accelerate this failure

In the game of nukes you don’t really need many.

You can destroy the world just so many times.

The rest is just for showing who has it bigger (the arsenal)

For a bit of context: the house of Bourbon - Two sicilies has no land for 150 years. They used to rule the south of Italy but after the Italian “unification” (or conquest) they got kicked out and have no real power.

While this may still be a conflict of interest since I am pretty sure they are still filthy rich and they may have economic interests in the US. But there is no foreign power interference here since there is no foreign power 🙂

Required: only in EU Available: EU close countries (UK, Switzerland, etc)

In the US banking is a bit different than over here. People still pay rent with checks (that in EU are de facto obsolete) possibly sent in an envelope via mail.

You may wonder why…. Because a money transfer (that in EU is generally for free) in US is often a double digit operation.

It’s a mechanism that is compulsory in EU (and nearby countries like Switzerland).

When you try to spend money online (without the plastic card), you need a second factor. In practice in, let’s say, Amazon there is an iframe with a page of your bank that asks to confirm the operation on the banking app or insert the code they sent you by SMS or things like that

This was at page 1 of Google search last year.

Now at page 1 there is “the best lidar laser of 2025 (updated) (tested) (for real) (DivX)

For this reason there is the “it’s antisemitic to criticise this war”

Heck even Jews have been accused to be antisemitic for criticising Israel.

We live in a post-facts era

Sadly it’s not like that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statelessness

Canada, for example, withdraw the citizenship to children of Canadians that haven’t lived at least 1 year in Canada before 18yo

If you lived in the medieval, would you have rooted for the apocalypse?

Dude, have you read the article? this is from an article on Nature.

Nature! Not the flat earth society scientific newsletter.

For publishing on Nature it is necessary that a number of the most well reputed experts in the field have peer reviewed the article.

By modern standard of “science”, publishing on Nature or Science is the closest to get to “consensus”.

I see your point in some newspapers articles but this is not one of that cases
