    No way companies are eating this cost AND tariffs. Especially tech companies. Its all getting passed to the customer. It could be semi functional if jobs and wages both increase but its more likely that AI would eat into any jobs or wage gains, making it a net loss for ordinary folk. I wouldn’t be too quick believe GOP policy is in the interest of the greater good. Just based on historical precedent.

      Oh it’s never in the interest of the greater good, with them. I’m just holding out hope they accidentally do something for the greater good.
