THE "American Idiot" is not as dumb or divided, as we would love to assume. Rather, regardless of their domestic politics, their world view is frighteningly very cohesive.
TAKE for instance the rise of China's Deepseek, which initial reports, READ ; hail as a game changer in the Artificial intelligence field.
OTHERS point to Deepseek's READ : Sputnik moment which trashed US$1 trillion from the American stock market, as proof of Deepseek's threath.
THOSE who actively trade on stocks though , will tell you that every time the market climbs it's way up to the highest floor, it's always on the look out for a window to jump off the cliff.
DONALD Trump, the newly elected president of the United States though READ : may have let the cat out of the back by hailing and praising Deepseek
DARK humour at its best, saw China READ; unleashing Deepseek to the West on Christmas Day
THE Americans have returned favour in the coldest way possible, a day before Chinese New Year, with a one trillion dollar bashing of its own stock market, idiotically laughing at the fact READ ; Deepseek says it is Chat GPT.
THAT, in itself says a lot, for an AI Chatbox dominating the world right now , that is READ : telling the world it has nothing to say of the Tianammen Square killings, the Ugyhur people's plight but acts as a communist mouth piece demanding for Taiwan`s unification with China.
DEEPSEEK`s cost, of US$6 million, if it ends up being a deepfake cost, could well be the icing on the cake for Washington, because that's what the world will remember Xi Jinping for.
