There are a lot of significant advantages to a single general-purpose platform versus designing custom robots for every task. You can use the same group of robots and assign them different jobs as needed. These robots can also adapt to new tasks and workflows as they emerge. Additionally, you can use the same set of replacement parts that work on any robot. Production costs are also much lower since you won't need lots of factories for different robot types.

Exactly, this is a huge game changer and using mothership platforms like this extends the range of these weapons by a huge margin. China is also actively applying AI to drone tech as well meaning that it won't be possible to jam them either.

It's interesting to see how quickly China is able to learn from the conflict in Ukraine and develop new weapons platforms based on that in under three years. Nothing comparable is possible in US.

it looks like the actual name in Chinese is Nine Heavens (九天) likely a reference to 九天玄女 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiutian_Xuann%C3%BC

The whole policy is deeply incoherent.

For sure, also disrupts BRICS and the BRI which clearly helps the US.

That's a great observation, a lot of resistance to transition away from fossil fuels comes from uncertainty around jobs. The only way to make it a smooth transition is to provide state support for people who are affected giving them a safety net and training for new fields of work that result from the transition.

I still remember the struggle session we had on here a little while back. Reactionary thought on AI turns out to be prevalent even in Marxist spaces in the west.

Wonder what it's like to go through life with the mental capacity of a goldfish.

It's incredible how libs falls for this every single time too.
