I follow many Reddit aubs about various international topics (architecture, travel...) and you always see some many criticism about everything Russian or Chinese (same for middle-eastern ocuntries...).
It's actually kind of ridiculous how much of agenda there is against some countries from the average redditor.
China is a long term threat due to the fact that they are building out renewable energy and AI is energy intensive. Politics has limited the USA from doing the same.
The more urgent concern in my opinion should be the inherent design limitations of LLMs which manifest as unreliability. Even Google is being hit with liability issues from this.
Reduce staff and hire AI and more lawyers doesn't sound like that great of a plan to me.
