The bad news for American people is that "others" are pretty good at these technologies. When I read an important AI paper chances are all the names on it are non-American, even for papers from American labs. In a real war, this becomes problematic.

Every nation has some bias but I think Americans have power poisoning for being the dominant power for so long. They think they are entitled to do anything and believe they are the good guys in the history. Well...

When you look at the world as a action movie with good/bad guys, then you're going to have a pretty bad time.

There are only good/bad people for moments in time. Some are good for longer than others.

But I get it, anti-American sentiment is very popular right now.

How else do you suggest common folks are supposed to view world, or well anything?

Americans do the same, hence whole world got ttump. 95% of the world aint US, so such logic is even easier for almost whole mankind - is US force of good or evil? Different places would give you different answers, and most americans would not like the actual spread these days.

Their "power poisoning" is warranted. The USA's military capabilities dwarf those of the rest of the world. There is not a single country on earth that can stand up to America militarily.

We are lucky that they never went full Roman Empire on us. That's only due to their own restraint. We may see them falter increasingly often as their economic power gets eroded by other nations. Just look at Venezuela.

What’s an American name?

I thought the US was a country of immigrants (or was before it started hunting them)?
