They are selling this profit-only dystopia through the false promise of “jobs” and “re-industrialization;”

They are particularly keen in “winning” against China to prevent an alternative global order from permanently dissolving Western monopolies and the unwarranted power it has given them for decades/generations;

    I couldn’t get through that video. I just can’t tolerate listening to videos trying to sell me statements like “not to say that that the technology isn’t useful and isn’t improving the lives of people around the globe” and “artificial intelligence is a real technology; it has tremendous potential to make life better for every single human being living on earth”.
