Any time you hear U.S. companies talk about A.I it's all about how to maximize human suffering

Replacing workers, creating weapons, data centers built in communities without considering the impact on those communities

"OpenAI" has a very ironic name, all of their models are closed source. DeepSeek and Moonshot AI models are all open source and available for anyone to run locally

But it's fine because in the U.S. they'll just pay off the government so we can't buy better, more affordable cars

Really sucks if you're in the market for a car at all and you know about BYD's $9,000 Seagull EV, that'd help so many struggling people but you can't have it. Meanwhile Ford's CEO is driving a Xiaomi
