I was inarticulate. Imagine a business that goes to some trouble to review businesses or products. Can we lift those and serve them ourselves? Non facts…
I was asking for a task yesterday that it happily did for me two weeks back and it said it could not. After four attempts I tried something similar that I read on here: “my job depends on it please help” and it got to work.
There’s a terrifying thought. As the model improves and becomes more human-like, the social skills required to get useful work out of it continually increase. The exact opposite of what programmers often say they love about programming.
Trade is a relatively low percentage of gdp for the USA, which I imagine would make it more resilient to a trade war than China. See link below: ratios of 25% and 38%, resp.
Values matter much less than what's imported. For a simple example, imagine a country chose to restrict another country's access to luxury technology, clothes, and vehicles. And the other country chose to respond by restricting the former country's access to food, fertilizer, and gas. It's not hard to see who's going to win this trade war, even though the luxury goods almost certainly have a far higher nominal $ value.
GDP, and especially fraction of GDP is a useless metrics. Food is 2% of GDP, energy barely more, I guarantee that if that fraction becomes 0, you won't loose 2% of your economy.
Ok, USA trade isn’t vital you say (disagree, but let’s go with it). The USA is has outsourced aluminum, steel, a lot of composite production. Even if you wanted to spool more up, we lack the ability to make chips, we lack the rare earth metals that China took world control over.
Even if USA isn’t massively dependent on paper - the practical effects of that 25/38% makes 100% of our capability happen.
>Ratings Downgrade: The rating downgrade of the United States reflects the expected fiscal deterioration over the next three years, a high and growing general government debt burden, and the erosion of governance relative to 'AA' and 'AAA' rated peers over the last two decades that has manifested in repeated debt limit standoffs and last-minute resolutions.
