There is only one way forward: America needs to manufacture tech that is high quality, modular, and designed to last decades. No more consumerist nonsense and built-in backdoor BS, everything needs to be repairable at as low a level as possible and there is no room for bloat.
China is doing us a favour if we're wise enough to see it.
Just recall a story with DeLorean stainless steel car. And it wasn't even full stainless steel, only panels.
Who will buy a new car if old one is fine? Replace wearables and that's all. That's not what current version of corporate capitalism could allow for itself.
"the smartest and best minds of the world do NOT want to go to CHINA"
Looks like soon, they definitely would not want to live in USA/EU. And may be China would not be the worst choice for them.
And forget about that bullshit about "intellectual property". It is a scam. Days, when inventor could get reasonable award for his intellectual work ended long ago. Today, most IP belong to fucking corporations who buy out it for cheap from inventors who have no money to implement their ideas or milk the slave employees forcing them invent for a salary passing all rights to employer. Most corporations even have "everything invented/written/programmed after signing contract belong to employer regardless of whether it was done in working hours or not" in job contracts. All profit from IP is collected by corporations. So fuck corporations and their IP rights. I see nothing bad when somebody copy Intel or whatever or make a compatible processor to get rid of Intel yoke.

Hardly corporations will ever allow that.

Good. Let China destroy itself with AI.
Being asshoe is the smart move.
