Stargate was a 1994 science fiction film about travellers zooming through a wormhole to an alternative reality. That seems an appropriate name, too, for the massive artificial intelligence infrastructure project promising to invest as much as $500bn in the US over the next four years, announced by President Donald Trump on Tuesday evening. Backed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank, Stargate reflects the alternative reality created by the fusion of the AI superbubble and Trump’s re-election. Washington, it seems, is disappearing down its own wormhole.
《星際之門》是一部1994年的科幻電影,講述旅行者通過蟲洞進入另一個現實。這似乎也是一個合適的名字,用于一個承諾在未來四年內在美國投資高達5000億美元的大型人工智能基礎設施項目,該項目由美國總統唐納德?特朗普(Donald Trump)于周二晚宣布。由OpenAI、甲骨文(Oracle)和軟銀(SoftBank)支持,星際之門反映了由人工智能超級泡沫和特朗普連任創造的另類現實。華盛頓似乎正消失在自己的蟲洞中。
