No.

Well, yes, because the US government has staked the future of the country's GDP on AI. They're even divesting from science as a whole and putting it into data centers.

  • Saying that AI will drive the future GDP is a very different thing from saying an economy relies on the stock price of a few AI companies.

    • Okay but political leadership of the US are literally are staking the future of GDP on exactly those few AI companies... $1.4trillion so far while universal childcare would only cost $40 billion a year.

      It's a sick joke.
