Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>So, VCs and "enterpreneurs" are parasiting the public infrastructure payed by U.S. taxpayers to create their fantasy islands throughout the U.S. I guess it's cheaper than paying for that infrastructure in their own desert islands... </p><p>"Several groups representing “startup nations”—tech hubs exempt from the taxes and regulations that apply to the countries where they are located—are drafting Congressional legislation to create “freedom cities” in the US that would be similarly free from certain federal laws, WIRED has learned.</p><p>According to interviews and presentations viewed by WIRED, the goal of these cities would be to have places where anti-aging clinical trials, nuclear reactor startups, and building construction can proceed without having to get prior approval from agencies like the Food and Drug Administration, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and the Environmental Protection Agency.</p><p>Trey Goff, the chief of staff of the startup nation known as Próspera, tells WIRED that he and other Próspera representatives working under an advocacy group called the Freedom Cities Coalition have been meeting with the Trump administration about the idea in recent weeks. He claims the administration has been very receptive. In 2023, Trump floated the idea of creating 10 freedom cities. Now, Goff says that Próspera’s vision is to create “not just 10, but as many as the market can handle.” They hope to have drafted legislation ready by the end of the year."</p><p><a href="https://www.wired.com/story/startup-nations-donald-trump-legislation/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">wired.com/story/startup-nation</span><span class="invisible">s-donald-trump-legislation/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Libertarianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Libertarianism</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/StartUpNations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StartUpNations</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/VCs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>VCs</span></a></p>

And perhaps even more important in Silicon Valley than a messianic belief in AI is a terrible fear of missing out. “In the tech industry, what drives part of this is nobody wants to be left behind. Nobody wants to be seen as lagging,” Joshi said. Amazon, Google, Meta, and Microsoft are defending their empires. Go all in on AI, the thinking goes, or someone else will. Their actions evince “a sense of desperation,” Cahn writes. “If you do not move now, you will never get another chance.” Enormous sums of money are likely to continue flowing into AI for the foreseeable future, driven by a mix of unshakable confidence and all-consuming fear."</p><p><a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2024/07/ai-companies-unprofitable/679278/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theatlantic.com/technology/arc</span><span class="invisible">hive/2024/07/ai-companies-unprofitable/679278/</span></a></p>
