I feel like all economies will soon be just trading with eachother, except with the US.

Thanks for the nuance, I was a bit generic, but you are right, their is more clean tech in other countries out there. But besides solar China is also big in EVs and batteries as well. We will see how it goes - really interested how some countries are leapfrogging in their development using more green energy technologies.

It’s indeed going to be different, because your selling some independence with renewable energy tech. Buy a solar panel from Chian now, and you have 25 years or more to figure out how to built your own replacement. but in the short to medium term at least (I expect) China will dominate these markets. I don’t expect the EU or India, or other countries to catch up soon on the level and price of green tech that China now has.

Great point, people can think of so many ways to manipulate these agents.

Is there even any government left after this?

I’ve noticed that a lot of people are just really bad in using the right searching terms, and then quickly shifting through all the info to find the right information. Googling well truly is a skill. Though be it a strange one.

Just putting it out there, you are not. Your deeds and intentions are what define you. And there is no race or nationality that makes you inherently bad or good.

I always imagine future historians having so much fun learning about this period.

I guess they don’t want allies.

I would say, a good conversation. Listen to him, ask question, don’t be too judgemental (and that can be hard). But also accept, that for a big part, you can’t form/force his way of thinking. In the end he has to find his own way in life.

You know this happened with cars also, until there is a new disruption by a new player or technology - companies are just coasting on their cash cows. Part of the market cycle I guess.

It really does feel like a trillion dollar investor game of chicken, where some investors or company has to admit defeat at some point.

Thanks for further elaborating. I think I get your point a bit better now.

So do you think a centralisation of AI “power” will lie in who has the most/best data? Was just reading Nexus, and Yuval Harari suggests that a centralisation of power is due to the most resources (data centers) and the data itself. Wondering what your take is, or if I’m not getting it.

For sure, especially these decentrale solutions work for places with limited to no access to a lot of resources now. Very interested where a lot technological leapfrogging will take place

Yeah, I agree we have to accept change. In the long run sure, life will be okay, and a new totally unique array of different species will exist. I think next to a healthy stable biosphere, which biodiversity is a fundament of, a lot of people feel the grief/sadness because of the loss of all this natural beauty. Be it ecosystems or species. And I think a problem is, that sure nature adapted and shifted due to natural cycles. Deserts and jungles moved north/south/east/west depending on changing circumstances. But next to geographical limits, there is also the limit that a lot of ground is claimed and protected by culture. Be it agricultural or cities.

I don’t totally agree to the COP progress, yes it is a slow process. And totally not moving at a speed we need or like. But at the moment it is the best we have. And as far as climate goes, a lot more has been done because of COPs then without them. Though I certainly hope we can develop better processes and cooperation between countries on these issues.

Thanks for the explanation

Thanks for enlightening me

I have no clue, because never reading the bible thoroughly because of being an atheist and all. I did a quick search and found something about being model nation under god and fully embracing the Messiah as a nation. But not sure what you refer to.

thanks for your great message, I see some hopeful developments well as, because of technological disruption. It is worth to read some of it here. But I am worried about even more complex issues like biodiversity loss. Though there is absolutely still hope and possibility there to limit damage, it is even more complicated to limit the damage. What do you think about that?
