While Western analysts obsess over high-end GPUs, Shenzhen's Huaqiangbei market is quietly staging a grassroots AI revolution. Driven by domestic chipmakers like Huawei Ascend and Horizon Robotics, local manufacturers are flooding the mass market with ultra-budget edge AI and surveillance tech. This is how China is achieving pervasive, bottom-up AI adoption.

& now there's YA reason: last week, #GitHub urged the FOSS community to *oppose* important #California legislation that places transparency and consumer rights requirements on deployment of LLM-gen-AI!
GitHub's tactic? Disinformation claiming #FOSS licenses are incompatible with Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code §22757 and California #SB1000 (which seeks to amend §22757).

Schneier: AI and Liability
Bruce's take on these issues obviously very closely syncs with mine. -L
A key quote from his essay:
- - -
More generally, liability concerns could mean that many current use
cases for agents won't be commercially viable. Companies may not be able to profitably operate AI lawyers, doctors and media influencers if they are held responsible for what they say and do.
We're OK with this outcome. There's nothing in the law that requires
us to accommodate AI systems if they are fundamentally untrustworthy, just as we don't need to accommodate untrustworthy human systems. Any company that won't stand by the statements its agents make-whether human or AI-doesn't deserve users' time or money.

“Google’s power consumption rose by 7 TWh between 2023 and 2024. That was bad. But it rose by a whopping 12 TWh between 2024 and 2025, almost double last year’s increase. Google’s power consumption isn’t just growing – the rate at which it is growing is growing. We have a word for this: exponential growth.
Every time I look at this chart I have to go and double check every single Google number, because it just looks so ridiculous
The power grids that Google’s data centres are plugged into have to increase generation to match this new demand – and that includes rising use of coal and gas, and as a consequence, worse climate disasters like deadly heatwaves. Google’s consumption is rising way faster than the grids are being cleaned up with renewables, and that means their emissions number is going up fast, too. It’s the steepest rise on record:”

About GDPR:
"The problem is that it was designed for a world where data types had stable boundaries, where collecting your
shoe size was clearly different from collecting your HIV status, and where one could draw a sensible line around
things called ‘special categories’. With the arrival of modern AI, that world no longer exists" #GDPR #EU #privacy #AI #Data
