Recent commencement speakers including Google's Eric Schmidt have been booed for praising AI and encouraging students to use it as they embark on their careers.
The anti-ai wave is mostly a north american issue. people in china just see a new tool they have to learn. like most issues with americans, it has become binary. either ai will bring utopia or it will destroy us all.
everything goes back to republicans destroying education and americans defining their lives by social media
The problem with your argument is that the companies that people rely on are going to have to deal with a market where AI is taking up a lot of resources they rely on, which will cause problems for their customers outside of the US.
European and African and Asian companies don’t need chips? They don’t need Harddrives? They don’t need computer components? How are car manufacturers going to build and sell new cars or fix older cars without chips? How do engineers trained to use CAD and modeling software do that without computers? (Please note that I’m not talking about some 60 year old engineer who will do it with a draft board and a pencil and a slide rule, I’m talking about new engineers who learned these electronic tools expecting to have them always available and who now are facing an uncertain future for the tech their business relies on).
The point is, there are far reaching consequences for AI in tech that effect the entire world.
This is a different topic though. Sure its related but the students aren’t booing because of chip shortage. The hype will die down. Ai wont go anywhere but the crazy ramp up and "everyone need sot be in AI’ will die down.

It’s the west, not Americans.
To be honest every American I know id either neutral or all in.
I have some Australian friends who are constantly pissed about it.

First question. Why do you think these students are booing?
Second question. You mention China. How much unemployment is there in China and, what is the main cause for the rate of unemployment?
