The culture shift that has generated this is the same one that causes the other story on HN this morning about xAIs gas generators being a national security issue. Ie one towards corruption graft and the public ill.

I don’t want Europe to model itself on the US, whatever the economic gain. Hopefully we are large enough to find a third way between China and the US.

You're right, it's not good to idolize this success because it does come with strings attached. You can't have everything. It makes sense to define European success in its own frame of reference.

We do still have to be strategic at the world stage though, or we'll be humiliated and pay dearly.
