Amy Webb is slightly off the grid.
IS THE US THE NEW PROMISED
LAND?
Amy
Webb reduces the world to the US and China. Comfortable laziness. She reduces
the AI revolution to nine companies, six American and three Chinese. Sloppy
easiness. She reduces the future to three scenarios, all of them dystopic. She
fell into the big pot of the three weird sisters. She reduces the way to
salvation to fifteen MUSTs and MUSTN'Ts declared universal on the basis of
nothing at all but in perfect agreement with the White American Anglo-Saxon
Protestant ideal of nationalist populists there, I mean trumpists playing the
trumpian trumpet of "make America great again." It is too late, baby,
too late and totally outdated. American imperialism is like sour milk: it is
B.S. worth being thrown onto the manure pile behind the house. It was aborted
once and for all in Saigon in 1975. Remember?
