I start to wonder if AI is China’s version of Reagan’s Star Wars—goading us into bankrupting ourselves by trying to compete with them on something that ultimately doesn’t work. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/03/hugging-face-china-ai-race-open-models.html

@maxleibman@beige.party You are going to be so SORRY you said this when China has all of the slop video, annoying meandering articles and dodgy software in a few years.

@maxleibman@beige.party not like the ai humpers here need goading, they've happily set trillions on fire to get their fat market payoffs

@maxleibman@beige.party that is absolutely what is happening. China playing the oligarchs and they’ve got them by the jewels.

@maxleibman@beige.party oooooooooooooooh that is an absolute gem of an analogy that also suits the interests of the OPEC mafia financing the madness in Silicon Valley. the KSA’s “techbro of the desert” would love nothing more than a completely bankrupt USA that he could nicely fit inside his pocket.
