If AI is the chief innovation in the US, then the US is massively fucked.
I’d much rather have a fancy shinkansen.
That’s a high speed train for the non-weebs

You seem to be implying an argument based on Modus tollens:
- If AI is the chief US innovation, then the US is massively fucked.
- The US is not massively fucked.
- Ergo, AI is not the chief US innovation.
Well I disagree with the premise 2:
The US is massively fucked.
With that, no conclusion can be gained from premise 1.
No, AI is one of the chief innovations which is a huge money maker. Don’t forget the US still dominates the enterprise server market which is worth trillions. Processors and GPUs are still designed and some manufactured here. Innovation comes in all shapes and sizes, AI is just the latest buzz.
Japan has been living in the year 2000 since 1980.
The last good year. Truly they are the most intellectually advanced society.
Except no one can get laid apparently
They have 2d waifus, who needs women?
And they’re a bunch of xenophobic racists.
Thought you were talking about America’s elected government for a second there.
Such a good one dude!!! You should try stand up!!!
According to my research all of their genitals are pixelated. What did they expect?
What happened after 2000 that made everythimg bad?
9/11
I forgor 💀
Fuck you, actually making me laugh out loud at something
Economics Explained has an interesting video on the topic. After WWII, Japan became the first country in Asia to undergo an industrial revolution and soon became the second largest economy after the US and was by many accounts set to match or even overtake the US. They then suffered an economic collapse due to unchecked growth and speculative markets and decided to never again speculate on the future and just stick to tried and true methods.
Since the 1990s, Japan’s economy has barely changed while other nations have seen huge growth. You’d assume that would mean Japan is now far behind, but they aren’t. They seem to have mastered keeping everything the same for decades without the normal decline that comes with it.
The US isn’t innovating jack shit.
The US just created a massively polarized and unequal society so that when a country creates a new brilliant researcher or innovation, an American company can buy them out.
Basically, the insane poverty and lack of government services that the average American experiences gives them enough cash to buy up innovative people, companies, and competitors.

Their AI needs longer to develop cause it has to be folded a million times.
I don’t exactly keep up with the technological innovations of every country, but I get the feeling it isn’t so much that Japan hasn’t innovated in decades, so much as they haven’t done anything he (it’s 4chan, let’s be frank, it’s a he) personally finds interesting or that is publicized in the medium he gets his news from.
dude had already swallowed the tech bs, thinks ai is the furthest advancement of technology when it can’t compete with ancient tech. literally can’t do what a calculator can do reliably. or a timer. or a calendar.
A calculator, timer or calendar can’t help me write an essay. You are comparing tools meant for different tasks. At least build your argumentets on something reasonable.
Why argue with someone who isn’t intelligent enough to write their essays without mechanical assistance?
Weak argument, dude
Did you use your computers spell check, ever? Cuz you’d fall for your own smart-assery if you did
“Why argue with someone who needs something else to write the essay for them” might be better
Defines “ages”. Blue leds came out of Japan somewhat recently and that’s pretty huge
Veritasium has an awesome video about the Japanese scientist that discovered blue LEDs, guy basically did it single handedly despite pushback from his boss. Absolutely insane scientific achievement
Because AI software isn’t ground breaking and is actually useless
I use AI almost daily as a software engineer. I like it because I’m training to jump into infosec, and the job market is going to be amazing as all this exploitable AI code keeps hitting prod.
I had some use of it. It is really good at summing and organizing a bunch of text.
Yes AI has good uses, it made my job faster, I can now focus on more important things because I’m not wasting time with bullshit that AI can do in a seccond.
But you can’t say that on Lemmy, here it’s all useless, a scam and gave my dog AIDS.
A lot of people here on Lemmy keeps saying that AI is bad because it failed one task it wasn’t built for. Or because it can’t do everything. I don’t get it.
it’s wild seeing americans say japan is in decline… by whose standards? why must they want what you want?
Just because Japan is in decline doesn’t mean America isn’t.
We’re not talking about America, we’re talking about Japan. Or, gaijin are
The Japanese talk about it, too, homie
Also, gaikokujin if you don’t wanna sound racist. I get that it can be neutral (and have used it to refer to myself even), but I’m not gonna let the context you used it in slide
The idea that Japan was ever more technologically advanced than the US is a tough argument to make. Perhaps they had better consumer and transportation technologies, but the US led the world in nearly all other forms of technology (see silicon valley, NASA, US defense technology, etc). It’s cool the hate on the US but there’s a reason it was the world super power for decades. It’s too bad it’s turning into an anti-science christo-facist kelptocracy.
