It is even worse than that. el Bunko and his witless slaves are slathering the bullshit around that they are bring manufacturing back to America for American jobs. Pushing robots just mean peopleless factories, no jobs, just another con job. And the robots or their parts will be made in China.
TDS? I do not think we need to bring the ability to believe la Presidenta into this.
la Presidenta First Rule: Nothing is done by him until he receives payment.
la Presidenta Second Rule: He destroys everything he touches.
la Presidenta Third Rule: You cannot set the morals and ethics bar so low that he cannot find a way to limbo under it.
It'll be about 3-5 years but more or less. That's how long analysts think the AI build out will last.
Which analysts?
... is that it's a protocol designed and built by someone who knew what he was doing (Linus Torwalds) resulting, among other things, in the fact that migrating your upstream Git repo away from a commercial service like Github takes something like 20 seconds, if you're having a slow day.
The difficulty of migrating away from Github is when you've built your entire deploy pipeline and QA process around it, which is what a lot of companies are doing lately.
More cylinders does make for a smoother engine without complex harmonic dampening, which the Japanese have decades of experience in doing exceptional at.
There was a big scandal about smooth submarine motion during the cold war. Toshiba makes the quietest refrigerator I've ever heard (42 db iirc). Can't hear it in the next room.
BYD is heavily subsidized
No, it's not. The exported BYD cars do not get any unusual subsidies. Their initial R&D was subsidized, but not the production.

"This article explores the issue of a "Jobless Recovery" mainly from a heterodox economic perspective. It emphasizes the implications of ideas by Marshall Brain and others that improvements in robotics, automation, design, and voluntary social networks are fundamentally changing the structure of the economic landscape. It outlines towards the end four major alternatives to mainstream economic practice (a basic income, a gift economy, stronger local subsistence economies, and resource-based planning). These alternatives could be used in combination to address what, even as far back as 1964, has been described as a breaking "income-through-jobs link". This link between jobs and income is breaking because of the declining value of most paid human labor relative to capital investments in automation and better design. Or, as is now the case, the value of paid human labor like at some newspapers or universities is also declining relative to the output of voluntary social networks such as for digital content production (like represented by this document). It is suggested that we will need to fundamentally reevaluate our economic theories and practices to adjust to these new realities emerging from exponential trends in technology and society."
This is bizarre, not to mention terribly Boomerish.
They could say no. No-one is stopping them.
They won't because they care more about money than their long-term customers.
This is why such people shouldn't be in positions of power. And won't be in the society that arises from the collapse of this one because we'll be damn sure to drum into the survivors that the merchant caste can never, ever be put in control again.
You Can Just Say No.
The only people who believe they have no choice are the ones who chase money at any cost. This is why such people should never be in positions of power.
I'm just glad we upgraded all our PCs over the last few years before the "AI" scam wrecked the computer business.
Well, this is it.
You can just see MS blubbering like Roger Rabbit: Ppllllbbbbsssseeeeeeesssse use our AI, it has health benefits and is fun to be with!!!
It appears that PL/I (and its dialects) is, or will be, the most widely used higher level language for systems programming. -- J. Sammet
