Google says they must double AI compute every 6 months ==> yes, another indication that Google and several other big tech companies fundamentally understand SOME aspects of the emerging Singularity that "normal" companies and people don't understand...

My take on the global superintelligence arms race, in Forbes:

Soo... Trump's first version of H1-B "reform" would have been bad for Big Tech and also the rest of the world... His revised version is "mysteriously" pretty good for Big Tech but bad for US startups and innovation ... $100K fee for an H1-B application is not a big deal to a
