The objectively best part about them is scaling them small enough to run privately. The problem with AI as a “National Security” strategy is that it is a Skynet datacenter strategy. The reason to remove government content that it is ok for you to use AI for your purposes is that Skynet won’t be able to control you.

You obviously did not follow the woman’s work. She was hitting monopolies hard when no one else had the guts to. She was our lest best hope to break the oligarchy.
Your not wrong that corporations win regardless of the party but how does a Trump appointee removing posts turn into an example of democrats being guilty of this?

I think that discounts the agency that Lina Khan had and still has post appointment.
She speaks quite passionately about pro consumer economic policies and actually started cracking down on some of monopolies that hurt consumers. Hell of a lot more than I’ve seen from many US politicians recently.
Either way I don’t think I’m changing your mind so I’ll stop here.
