That's "wow" as in - "Wow, they've spent all those billions and this dreck is the best they can come up as a sales pitch for their AI product?"

The Musical!

...and name it Starfleet Academy?

Cape Canaveral nee Kennedy renovated by President Donald J. Trump and paid for by the Trump Kennedy Fund.

You're obviously not an electrical engineer then. ;-)

That's not having more computer, that's having more computers. DCs are concentrations of power, it doesn't matter how many computers are in them really but we have to organize the logic into many computers because otherwise interconnection becomes unmanageably expensive. Drones inherently depend on many distributed computers, but none of them have to be very powerful. The more processing power you have the more fancy tricks they can do, but drones are inevitably energy-limited and therefore have limited loiter capability, so the types of tricks you will want them to play are also limited.

Yeah, it's called fast fashion.

If only the interface was the hard part.

How do you know he doesn't also say things about those, coward?

Joking aside, there's a much more subtle change too. Look at the quoted wording from the astronauts: "*our* nation", "inspire *this* nation". Even at the height of the US-Soviet cold war it was still "for *all* mankind".

I get Trump's order is very much aimed at the NASA and the US (and probably getting his name onto it somehow), so can give that a pass, but the astronauts had an opportunity to rise above all that partisanship and slip in a message of much needed global unity, yet failed to do so. There are precious few institutions left in the world that can at least try and claim to be at least somewhat above / outside the direct influence of politics, and it looks like we're about to lose another one. Quite possibly for good once the ISS is finally decommissioned.

I know, while I was writing it I realized the question was a bit like asking why the inhabitants of the asylum don't treat people for mental illness.

AI isn't a nuclear weapon. Companies don't even find it profitable.

I thought Trump wanted to pay down the deficit? Everything he does seems to cost money. Where are his ideas to save money without killing people or spreading illness?

I don't know what world you live in, but every time technology advances companies use it to gain more control and profit while people have less. Exactly the opposite of Star Trek is happening. In star trek everyone contributed and shared the benefits.

But in this case, they set fire to their own house and are calling it an arms race.

Global AI tech spending is said to surpass 2.5 trillion this year.

Sorry, Gates is a small fish in that pond.
