Chinese open-source foundation models are already enabling small countries and companies to build their own large language models.

Not everywhere can wean itself off, but the "big three" cloud compute companies arent the only shows in town. And of course there is a multitude of free and open source replacements for commercial software with companies willing to provide support.
imagine if this collapses their Economy
to be honest, it might have a significant impact. the US tech today serves a global market, but if that market gets reduced to just the US, that is probably a significant cut.
It would only help us here. Everyone buying it or allowing their data to be traced is basically funding pedos and murderers.

They had already gone off the deep end. They've been enshittifying everything they can get their hands on and monetizing the slightest edge they can to everything as well. Tech bros are just the pharma bro multiplied. People that bring no value to the world make things that they have no knowledge about or input on behind pay walls because they can. It's for the shareholders brah! Rid the world of nepo CEOs and we'll all be in a better place. Also "economics" belongs with the other junk science like chiropractors. Some of them are great and some of the science is needed. Most of it is just junk that only makes sense to them and their schemes.
Oh Blockbuster, who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy memory
Thy storefront come
Thy movies return
On Earth as it is in Heaven
Give us this day our daily movie rentals
And forgive us our shortsightedness
As we forgive those who exploit us for money
And lead us not into micro-transactions
But deliver us from enshittification
For thine is the Weekend
The Power and the Vibes
Forever and ever
Amen
Trump is determined to turn the US into the world's biggest island.
South America is going to need a real defense pact unless they want to be the victims of the Monroe Doctrine forever.
Haven't you heard? It's the Donroe doctrine now.

I'm not going to google that because I don't want that fact in my brain.
.... I did and theres a whole Wikipedia page about it already
