Tank fuselage, personal armors, locks...
There's plenty markets for people that know how to make indestructible gears.

I was not even thinking on localization. Having to find good voice actors for like 60+ languages and having em fit the characters and such must be an herculean if not impossible task.

The best use for AI voice generation is to tailor the voices to sound exactly like you want, instead of picking from a handful of voice actors and asking em to try to fit the character somehow.
Add challenges like having to voice over hundreds of different characters, and i can see where AI voices would really help.

It's not marginally, it's literally twice the number of simultaneous instructions per cycle, with better branch prediction and all that.
I recommend you check the digitalfoundry video on the switch 2 version of cyberpunk, it is quite drastic the difference of CPU performance and storage performance from the PS4, at a point the switch 2 can (barely) run the phantom liberty DLC while it's impossible to do it on the PS4.
The only part where the PS4 wins is on shadow quality because the PS4 has more GPU power.
Also we're comparing the PS4 storage versus the switch 2, a mechanical hard drive that barely can hit 100MB/s on a good day and has seektimes, while the switch 2 has a "paltry" 1GB/s storage with no seek time.

It is a bit better than the PS4 because it has more memory, SSD, and a CPU that is twice as fast.
But those will in most cases just reduce the productions cost as you don't have to screw around with data streaming or a really slow CPU.

Unless some external force want you to use more money because it increase some value, even if you don't even have how to use the extra budget in a realistic way.

They're probably not very keen on killing people with air pollution

It probably will lower the quality of the animes in attempts of "global reach", but for now it's still pretty good.

If they can do it in places like north korea, they surely can pull off on a less extreme condition.

The cases where they get kicked out of the system are probably the best ones.

When it gets to this point, the choice of the population is to starve to death or create a new, parallel system that serves em.
It's normally what happens in communist dictatorships etc..., so you can bet the elites are trying to not get to this point, or the system will just get away from em.

And will fuck it up in a way it will LOOK correct, as the LLM failure mode is "as visually closest as possible from the right answer"

You're basically saying "this product may not work sometimes" when you slap the AI to it.
Even without the stigmas and the excess of usage of the word and all that, it is widely known that llms etc just fail from time to time.
It's like adding a second pilot to your car that is a trained hamster.

Neither of the candidates would fix it, It's the whole point of the two party scheme.
"The last chance" will happen when the system inevitably collapses due the shortsightness of the small handful of leaders, and people have to build a new system that don't let em starve to death.

It makes the investors happy, and the opinion of the investors is more important than the existence of the company itself.
It's like that fungus that infects slugs to make em have horrible pulsing antennae.
