One of the most fascinating aspects I find, is the low-level trade/chip war going on between the U.S. and China.

Elon described, but the U.S. has a significant amount of control over the export of chips to China. While China has a huge amount of electricity, they do not have access to the same chips and are being tariffed when they import them. In a way, it's no longer a race to develop a nuclear bomb or visit the moon... it's a race to control the chip market with the emergence of AI. Taiwan is home to TSMC and you can pretty much assume what that means.
