If anyone doubted Trump was sincere in his intention to clean the

 DT may turbocharge US technology, and the country, just when a lot of
other countries (like in Europe) are wallowing in bureaucracy and
energy shortages and brain drain. And war.

Nobody is "wallowing in energy shortages", and Europe isn't suffering from any kind of brain  drain - the US isn't the Mecca it used to be for clever people. The money is still nice, but the life-style isn't nearly as attractive as it used to be. Bureaucracy has it's uses.

Not by doing more, but by doing less.

King log. We can hope. He's sounding more like king stork at the moment, but he lacks the attention span to follow through.

Not by being brilliant, but by having common sense.

Or claiming to have it. Donald Trump isn't going to turbocharge US technology. He doesn't know enough to distinguish the genuine whizz-kids from the confidence tricksters.

Interesting times.

As in the Chinese curse - may you live in interestng times.

(Of course, AI is a silly bubble and likely to crash.)

AI has it's applications, but give venture capitalists a buzz word and they will invest, and develop an acute fear of missing out.
