Ignoramus question: does the 100s of trillions of parameters world still exist with a constrained domestic data center build out? Democrats are signaling they are about to go psycho mode on data center contracts.

Like the sister comment, if not in US then in other countries.
US rightfully placed a bunch of labor/environmental regulations around manufacturing which moved to China but stupidly didn't place restrictions on goods manufactured with severe labor and environmental violations.
We are repeating the mistake again.

The 'US' isn't a monolithic thing. US market leaders convinced US politicians to open US markets to China, and the lack of labor and environmental regulations was a feature, not a bug in the plan.

Yeah, we all know that. What next? You are going to tell me "US politicians" aren't a monolithic thing? Or that we are made up of atoms?
Who voted for the politicians? Who clamored for cheaper goods and fell for the lies?
