Research, investments and talents are all avoiding the US. AI won't save the US economy either as there is no moat as we can all see.

We have a ban on telemarketing calls regarding insurance in Switzerland. But we still get them.
So what happens is that insurance agents (which are required to be licensed) don't call them selves. Instead they use 3rd party call centers outside the country which make the calls. They "warmup" the clients to get a meeting in which the agent then in a visit can make the sale.
For law enforcement to punish these people and revoke their licenses they would need to do costly sting operation which they can only do so much.
Most would have blamed the card holder as was seen in the initial few posts that showed up on reddit.
You can't tell me that these social media companies don't already know exactly how old someone is just based on the enormous data that is collected.
There should however be no force age verification. Social media companies already know how old you are or very close to it using the data they collect everyday. Using this data they should be required to use "best effort" to determine which algorithm you fall in. Nothing is 100% and we should stop pretending it is, sure some kids will find a way around but they would also if there is a age verification system.
Even not being able to significantly update a model that is burned on a chip the performance gains are immense. You also don't need the latest chip fabs to make them drastically reducing the cost.
That is the last thing that will happen. We don't seem to ever learn a lesson.
