It isn’t just surveillance. It’s about innovating. What created a strong tech sector in the west was innovation. China wants us to put down the new thing so they can build the patents and develop the sector. It isn’t great that AI exists. But rejecting it is going to hurt more than if we use it.

That’s how innovation happens. It’s like saying you don’t think it’s useful to read all the books on a subject. You can’t just open a page to exactly what you need.
I see a lot of you phrasing things like “whatever it is we getting” but are we all really ignorant to the reality of the way these tools increase productivity? Like that’s just putting your head into the ground. When I was younger the left was where I thought wise people were.
