>changes your country to be more like Africa

All of the countries in Africa, every single one, have a vastly lower standard of living than the USA.

Replacing your entire culture and people doesn’t really fix the problem, it just permanently changes your country to be more like Africa, Mexico, India, etc.

Instead of just stating “it won’t work” why don’t you actually do the calculation yourself and show why it won’t work?

Yes they have an incentive to put things in space, but it actually is a decent idea if they can execute on it the same way they did with Starlink. There’s huge demand for compute, many data center projects on earth are being scuttled because of NIMBYs and lack of power, there are no NIMBYs in space and a sun synchronous orbit means you can power them without batteries.

>“We have a population that is not reproducing on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants – the Dreamers and all of them, because our ultimate goal is to help the Dreamers but [also] to get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here,”

Chuck Schumer, who is massively understating the number of illegals here, puts it at at least 11M. So yeah tens of millions is a realistic ballpark.

Go look at maps of "if only X demographic voted", there is a clear incentive for certain parties to import people just because changing the ethnic makeup of the country will give them political power (immigrants have kids who are citizens and will vote along their ethnic lines).

Additionally there are efforts to naturalize refugees and illegals:

Chuck Schumer:

"We have a population that is not reproducing on its own with the same level that it used to. The only way we’re going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants – the Dreamers and all of them, because our ultimate goal is to help the Dreamers but [also] to get a path to citizenship for all 11 million or however many undocumented there are here"

"Path to citizenship" here implies that he wants them to be able to vote.

You can find dozens of clips of politicians and billionaires also talking about the need to replace the low fertility population with immigration.

The stock price reflects the potential of the business in the future as well as its current concrete value.

If he actually tried to sell it and turn it into cash it would be less than $1T.

The next best thing is that the Chinese labs catch up and release open weight versions.

Was the 1965 Hart-Celler immigration act a good thing? Has the country improved the quality of life for its citizens since then?

The answer is obviously "no" for anyone who's not a billionaire.

Why is everyone so okay with these companies intentionally gimping their AI and choosing who is allowed to know certain types of information in the name of safety? Can you imagine if Microsoft shipped a feature in their OS that watched what you did and shut down the computer if it detected you were doing something it deemed "unsafe"?

We really need truly open source versions of models like this, otherwise we are allowing a few oligarchs to directly dictate which uses of our own computers are allowed and not allowed.

This is a reference to the 1990's dot com bubble where internet infrastructure companies overbuilt network capacity, leading to the term "dark fiber". That was an indicator of a bubble because it showed that capacity was larger than demand. OP is saying that this is specifically NOT happening in the case of GPUs yet, indicating that demand still outstrips supply of compute.

>GPUs go EOL fast

We are seeing the opposite of what was expected, GPUs are actually getting more valuable because demand is so great, something that basically never happens. Even older chips have become more valuable.

>paused datacenter builds

It doesn't seem that datacenters have been paused because of lack of demand for AI, it seems mostly that there is a lot of pushback by cities to build these things and also there is a shortage of power to run them.

IMO none of these things point to a AI being a bubble (over-hyped, demand does not match the stated value). It mostly points to the opposite, there is massive demand for AI and every layer of the supply chain is struggling to keep up with that demand.
