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. 😳

After Haier (foreign entrant) withdrew its bid for Maytag, which was unpopular out of a concern for US jobs, Whirlpool (domestic rival) bought Maytag.
