The US blocked high power graphics cards to specific countries, and then got all shaken up when their money moat was pole-vaulted by an embargo'd country wielding jank cards.
Why is this a big deal, exactly?
Who benefits if the US has the best AI, and who benefits if it's China?
Is this like the Space Race, where it's just an effort to spit on each other, but ultimately no one really loses, and cool shit gets made?
What does AI "supremacy" mean?
No. We are not.
With typical capitalist efficiency, the titans of industry are going to boil off half an ocean in an ignorant attempt to simulate a human brain that requires what, about 2 kilowatt-hours of relatively clean chemical energy a day?
Never mind there being no shortage of said brains.
