I didnβt say that.
The US still holds roughly 70-75% of high-end AI cluster performance. China is a clear #2 at around 15%.
China is closing the gap quickly. But for them to reach 10Γ the compute of the entire rest of the world in a decade, the currently leading West would have to stop competing altogether.
The West will not choose to stop. That outcome only becomes realistic if Western civilization as we know it collapses.
Cut the panic delivery.
Western compute does not βcome from Taiwan.β Taiwan manufactures it at the highest level β but the core technology, the people who built it, and the machines that make it possible all come from the West.
TSMC itself was founded by Morris Chang, who was trained in the United States.
Its roots run straight through Stanford, Fred Terman, Shockley, Fairchild, and Intel.
The only machines capable of producing advanced nodes (EUV) come from ASML in the Netherlands. Without those Dutch machines, there is no leading-edge production.
China cannot simply seize TSMC and rebuild it 10x bigger on the mainland in a day (or a decade). The process knowledge, the talent, the equipment, and the supply chain are not portable like that.
The West already controls the chokepoints.
The United States still leads in chip design, in AI software, in high-performance computing, and in the next generation of tools. USA have far more potential ahead than the panic narrative allows.

DOGE arrived at the most critical moment in our history.
Every awakening rising around us today began with that simple yet magnificent pursuit of transparency and efficiency during its short run.
I believe a properly empowered autonomous administration can turn a failed state into a functional Starbase in under 15 years.
Not metaphorically. Literally.
Elon Musk says that if he was given COMPLETE CONTROL of D.O.G.E., he could have cut the yearly budget in half.
For God sakes, give him complete control.
