USA & China liefern sich ein atemberaubendes Wettrennen um die Dominanz in KI. Im „Sofortprogramm“ der CDU/CSU steht währenddessen unter der Überschrift „Vorrang für Wettbewerbsfähigkeit & Wohlstand“: Agrardieselsubvention wird wieder erhöht. Umsatzsteuer für Gastronomie gesenkt. Kein Wort zu KI. 😳
