People often talk about the profound first-mover advantages that might come to a nation that first develops AGI, but what about the one who develops workable fusion power first?
We are already seeing the decay of the fossil fuel age, and all the economic and political structures that go with it. The creation of fusion power would speed that up. China seems to be in a [positive-feedback loop, where being the world’s biggest industrial and manufacturing power is making it the technological leader](https://www.high-capacity.com/p/chinas-overlapping-tech-industrial) too. A fusion power breakthrough might be a shot in the arm for that process.
This is paywalled…. Can OP provide some TLDR?
I would love to see this completed, I bet they’ll have an insane amount of surplus energy.
I wonder if they could power most of SEA with that thing running full throttle.
A chinese led world order sounds nice
No war/ clean energy/ high education
Photos of the location are posted on Reddit
„secret site“
You can achieve a lot when you’re not overly concerned about safety
/S
Secret site, either the Chinese don’t know what secret means or they can’t keep a secret. I guess either way they don’t know what secret means.
Its like watching a game of command a conquer generals play out in real life. The main difference is that you have the Chinese building up their tech tree with fusion and the US building the Russian tech tree of polluting power generators. Then you have the GLA taking pot shots that forces you to change strategy.
Further proof of how the USA is fucked. We are gonna get lapped by China for energy production while we fight for stupid bullshit.
America: the answer to this potential threat is to destroy the Department of Education so they don’t accidentally teach anybody physics.
China: building new fusion reactor prototypes, flying new 6th gen jet demonstrators, iterating naval ships at staggering rates, switching away from fossil fuels faster than anyone else
USA: dismantling our clean energy industry, pumping our money into a south african racist’s pockets, putting all our fighter projects on indefinite hold
Lol America’s such a shadow of its former self. It’s like China’s playing chess with us and we’ve just decided to masturbate under the table instead of moving our pieces
China is going to stomp the US in the coming years if things continue this way. Drill baby drill is going to leave us in the dark ages, while China rules the new economy.
Someome needs to take over with the US turning into an Idiocracy.
And then what is America doing? Oh…going back to fossil fuels? O-okay… 😒
It’s like someone said: Who cares what nation discovers the cure for cancer, because cure for cancer. Ditto for fusion.
