SoftBank's Masayoshi Son plans a massive Arizona tech hub to build robots and AI, seeking to bring manufacturing back to the US with help from TSMC and potential government incentives. Seems like they want to build machines, but machines don't need people. So why?

They Drew First Blood Not Me!

Bloomberg News is saying this Son fellow from SoftBank wants to drop a cool trillion bucks in Arizona. He wants to build robots and AI like some kinda high tech jungle. Back in 'Nam we didn't have robots just Charlie. This? This is different. Makes a man think what's he building? And why? Is it machines vs humans?

Bringing it All Back Home (To Blow It Up?)

The story is about bringing tech manufacturing back to the US. Like a stray dog coming home after a long time in the mud. He wants to build it like Shenzhen. That is a City in China from what I understand. Maybe it's good maybe it's bad. Maybe Son wants to build a robot factory for good or maybe its to blow it up!.

Paperwork and Politics: My Kind of Hell

They're talking to the government about tax breaks. Politicians... the last time I trusted one of those guys I ended up knee deep in quicksand. This Lutnick character... he better watch his back. Free money in the form of tax breaks eh? Someone's lining their pockets I bet. All that tax money will be used on some type of machines to cause harm.

TSMC: Friend or Foe?

This TSMC outfit they're building chip factories here already. But are they in on this robot thing? Son wants them in but they ain't saying nothing. Silence can be louder than gunfire you know? I trust machines less than people but I guess only time will tell.

One Trillion Dollars: You Expect Me to Talk?

A trillion dollars... that's enough to buy a small country or a whole lotta rockets. And he wants to double that into half a trillion for some 'Stargate' project with OpenAI and Oracle? He wants to create machines but does he think about the dangers and problems created by it. I've seen things... things you wouldn't believe.

It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over

They say it depends on Trump and the state officials. Well politics are a minefield. One wrong step and you're blown to pieces. Let's hope Son knows what he's doing. Because if he doesn't we're all gonna pay the price. Machines are dangerous even more so if they are used as weapons.
