AI is akin to the arms race. It doesn't matter what it looks like on the over the rainbow. Every major government will invest in it so the 'other sides' do not gain technologic or weaponized superiority.

Only government would fund to create software that requires nuclear plants to run. AI is stupid waste of resources and destructive to our planet.

Actually, they were very much into a-bomb development. There is a well-known story about how the Norwegians sank a ship through sabotage that was carrying heavy water from Norway to Germany, despite the Germans having Norwegian hostages aboard that ship.
The Germans didn't give a shit about the atom bomb

German bomb development was doomed in part because they had severe oil shortages. The ultra-pure graphite used as a moderator in most reactor designs is made by burning petroleum and collecting the carbon ash. The Nazis didn't have oil to waste on producing high quality graphite, so they tried heavy water reactor designs instead. Initial reactor designs used natural uranium (0.7% U235) and had to be very large. Smaller designs use higher enriched uranium (2-3% U235), but all methods for separating U235 from natural uranium use massive amounts of energy, the excess of which was in short supply.

AI is dumb as a rock it really is. I feel like Mark Dice asking a college freshman about geography and politics when I ask AI anything.

Yeah, women aren't that considerate to their beasts of burden. Phallus waving obstacle course avoidance and shit testing requirements and extortion ploys make it difficult to be considerate.
