The next big step for an authoritarian government...create a country of robots. #China
Milk Road AI@MilkRoadAI

China flipped a switch last Sunday and nothing will be the same. A factory in Foshan, China opened its doors and inside, robots are building robots. One completed humanoid every 30 minutes and ten thousand humanoid robots per year from a single production line. The line runs through 24 precision assembly stages and passes every unit through 77 separate inspection procedures before it ships. China already accounted for over 80% of global humanoid robot installations in 2025 and it holds five times more humanoid robot patents than the United States. The country now has more than 150 humanoid robot companies, growing at over 50% annually and analysts project 50,000 to 100,000 humanoid robots shipped this year alone. One company has already announced plans for a super factory with annual capacity of 500,000 humanoid robots. While Tesla's Optimus is still largely in prototype phases, Chinese firms are delivering units to EV factories where humanoid robots are completing 90% of a human worker's tasks in a three hour shift. Morgan Stanley projects the global humanoid robot market hits $5 trillion by 2050 and China intends to own more than half of it. The geopolitical dimension is even more significant than the economic one. Chinese companies already supply 63% of global humanoid robot components, the actuators, sensors, and joints that every robot maker on earth depends on. The Hudson Institute is now calling for emergency export controls on ball screws and sensors before China eliminates its remaining dependencies on Western parts. That window may already be closing.

@WeAreCanProud Canada used to be one of the happiest countries on earth, however that might have been determined. At one time, I lived in that happy country. The PM, Stephen Harper, was smart, logical, numerate, sane, and expertly represented Canadians. What happened?

Milk Road AI@MilkRoadAI·
The second richest man on Earth is openly pitching an AI-powered surveillance state. Larry Ellison, the billionaire behind Oracle told investors he sees a future where “citizens will be on their best behavior because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on.” He is talking about your phone calls, your texts, your emails, your web history, everyday life turned into a live feed for an AI. Bernie Sanders is now blasting that quote in public because he wants people to understand who is saying this and why it matters. This is a man who builds the databases governments already use, who is pouring billions into AI infrastructure, and whose family is rapidly buying up chunks of the media ecosystem. The core idea is chillingly simple, if everything you do can be monitored and scored in real time, you don’t need bars or guards. You live inside a soft cage made of data. And the implications are huge. – For democracy, concentrated control over data, distribution and narrative makes it easier to punish whistleblowers and protests while rewarding compliant speech. – For civil liberties, warrantless mass monitoring turns innocent until proven guilty into always under investigation. – For power, whoever owns the pipes and the platforms doesn’t just know what you say, they can shape what you see and fear. Sanders’ warning is basically this, when the people building the surveillance machine are the same people buying the media and wiring the AI, the line between public safety and total control can disappear overnight.

Beware the opinions of "cat on shoulder" profile picture X'ers.

@HonTonyAbbott You absolute moron. The only wake up call is that Trump is a dangerous idiot and the world should give the US consequences for these continued actions to destabilise the world. If MORE people had made the transition away from fossil fuels, LESS people would be feeling the pinch.

Australia might still be the world's best place to live but we're letting ourselves down big time. Four weeks into the Iran war: 10% of our servos wholly or partially out of fuel. 30% of farmers worried they lack the diesel to sow or harvest their crops. Flights being cancelled. No Australian-flagged fleet of tankers that could be tasked with a fuel rescue mission; with no naval ships capable of helping to break any Iranian blockade; and with no Australian air power yet despatched to the Middle East to help the US-Israel campaign against an apocalyptic theocracy, even though the Straits will never be secure while it lasts. Successive governments convinced themselves that an 'unstoppable green energy transition' meant access to fossil fuels was neither necessary nor desirable. That was always a fantasy, and now we're paying the price. Fossil fuels are still responsible for 90% of our energy needs. The Bondi massacre was a wake up call on social cohesion. The Iran war is a wake up call on national resilience. Dealing with both means recovering the self-belief needed for Australia to stay Australian. Time to face facts on energy.

Most European countries have closed their oil and natural gas production, despite still having economically viable reserves. Germany blew up all of their nuclear power plants also, which used to provide 31% of their electricity 25 years ago. Europeans sanctioned Russian oil and natural gas, dramatically reducing that supply source. Germany allowed Ukraine/Britain/USA to blow up the Nord Stream pipeline and did nothing about it. Now oil and natural gas from the Persian Guld has been reduced by Iran threatening ships trying to pass thru the Strait of Hormuz. European energy policy is a disaster and at this point it almost seems intentional.

@EricLDaugh Boomer hippies that never changed. There are lots of them and that's why DEMs still have a "legal" voting base. They'll be gone before too much longer.

The UAE will show the world what strength is made of. The UAE will show the EU and NATO how to be brave. The UAE will make sure the Islamic regime in Iran never, ever targets us again. Never again. We lead. We protect. We win. And the Middle East moves forward without Islamist terrorists.
