back to article China launches new ‘AI+’ policy to ‘deepen information technology revolution’

China’s State Council last week announced a new IT policy called “AI +”, the successor to 2015’s “Internet +”. The Council said Internet+ focused on connectivity to improve production processes. AI+ aims to achieve “a leap from ‘information connection and diffusion’ to ‘knowledge application and creation’,” in pursuit of …

    Deny it if you like, but the curse it is cast and the result unavoidable.

    AI+ aims to achieve “a leap from ‘information connection and diffusion’ to ‘knowledge application and creation’,” in pursuit of further economic efficiencies and “more comprehensive, systematic, and profound changes to economic and social development.”

    Such an achievement, and there surely is no doubt that the West will be trailing and trialing following what are certain to be clearly evident Chinese leads in what is steadily proving itself to be a rapidly changing and very surprising and never ever before realised possible emerging field, will naturally result in an unprecedented but inevitable collapse of all current administrative systems reliant on wantonly overpriced, oversold and overhyped Western markets and services ...... which, if the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth were told, are catastrophic fundamentals with fantasy valuations supporting nothing more realistic than a Gigantic Titanic Future Ponzi.

      If you didn’t/don’t like what is shared above, the following suggests you be completely out of touch with situations worthy of publishing for the public to accept are being virtually realised by remote relatively anonymous autonomous entities way beyond any human means/memes of practical command and physical control ....... and therefore, if you can’t beat them, do yourself a favour and save yourself a whole lot of totally avoidable grief and join them is sounder than forever battling against controversial future joint venture advice and simple pure uncommon sense.

      This brings us to a troubling development: President Trump, Congressional Republicans, and members of the so-called New Right have recently floated the idea that we should tax the rich more. Even more alarmingly, these same people hold that the federal government should take equity stakes in private companies. This is a fundamental departure from the principles that allowed for the creation of the wealth policymakers now wish to strip away, and a complete rejection of lower-tax, small-government Republicanism.

      President Trump is “taking a 10 percent stake in Intel,” making the federal government the single largest stakeholder of the company. Earlier this year, the sale of US Steel to Nippon was approved, contingent on the US government receiving a “golden share.” While Trump is in office, this golden share is held by the President (i.e. Donald Trump), and after he leaves office, it will revert to being held by the Treasury and Commerce Departments. Importantly, while he is in office, the President will have veto power over some production and wage decisions. Not wishing to be left behind, the Pentagon is taking a 15 percent stake in MP Materials, a producer of rare-earth magnets, among other things.

      All of this shifts the nation away from the capitalism that created an economy (and indeed, society) the likes of which has never been seen in human history and toward the type of capitalism found in, say, China. Trying to “out-China” China is a fool’s errand.

      The reality is that economies, societies, and the nation itself are best served when individual people are given the freedom and tools to succeed, not when government bureaucrats pick winners and losers.

      In a free-market, capitalist system like the one the US for the most part enjoys, the best way to serve oneself is by serving others. ...... https://www.zerohedge.com/personal-finance/why-eating-rich-undermines-everyones-prosperity

      However, the following is the stumbling block hurdle to smash to smithereens in order not to stagnate and wither in such as be petrified presents captured and paying tribute and danegeld to perverse and corrupted pasts ........

    Time will tell

    I must say that the Chinese approach to AI sounds like it might be the first sign I've seen of anyone applying actual intelligence to deployment of the technology. However, it remains to be seen what they'll actually implement.

    If you consider the prime aim of careful adoption to include suppressing talk about Tienanmen Square and not generating pictures of Whinne-the-Pooh.

      It is spelled "Tiananmen Square", and all of China knows what happened, we crushed a petty CIA-funded color revolution, also, Winnie the Pooh generates roughly 800 billion in revenue in China each year.

      But please focus on these petty issues instead of preparing for your petty Western countries' eventual collapse.
