AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over

China is “set up to hit grand slams,” longtime Chinese energy expert David Fishman told Fortune. “The U.S., at best, can get on base.”

TLDR: U.S. AI growth is hitting a wall because the power grid is weak and slow to expand. China has huge surplus power and uses data centers to soak it up. State-led, long-term planning gives China an edge, and the U.S. will fall behind unless it changes.

    According to more perfect union video I recently watched they will claim success at 100 billion in profit, or roughly 1% of the total annual wages of all U.S. workers. Only a fraction of wages are profits. The A.I. being developed here is anti human.

    The replacement of the work force is made worse by their destruction of homes. The capitalists are attempting to decimate the workplace literally. The sooner this ends the better.

      That is the legal definition of “AGI” used in a contract between OpenAI and Microsoft.

      The real definition of AGI is much worse, and refers to an AI basically equivalent in capability to a human across all domains, allowing it to be copied ad infinitum to replace any and all human labor.

      As much as AGI in the hands of socialists is the best way to reach fully automated luxury communism, in the hands of capitalists, it is also the way to resolve the class conflict forever by killing everyone else and replacing them with robots.

      The book Four Futures explores these 2 possibilities further.
