🚨 Part 2 with David Shapiro is here – and it’s explosive.
In this episode of Mindblowers, we dive deep into the future of AI, automation, and global power, including:
🤖 Why the U.S. Will Crush China in the AI War
Many believe China is catching up or even leading in AI and robotics—but David Shapiro strongly disagrees. He explains why the U.S. still holds the advantage, and how advanced humanoid robots will tip the balance even further.
🧠 Why Elon Musk’s DOGE Program Is a Failure
We also explore why DOGE, the government savings program backed by Elon Musk, won’t deliver the long-term benefits people expect. David argues it’s based on outdated assumptions—and extreme automation will make it irrelevant.
📉 How Humanoid Robots Will Collapse Prices
As AI and robotics evolve, the cost of labor will drop dramatically, leading to a collapse in the prices of goods and services. This changes everything: work, wealth, government programs, and global economics.
