Very interesting analysis of EU vs US productivity.
We can achieve similar outcomes in the digital space if we make it policy: less rent extraction and toxicity, better mental health, less inequality, lower emissions, happier youth, more democracy, innovation you actually want to use.

More leisure, better health outcomes, less inequality, less carbon emissions, all of which with broadly similar productivity:

- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

the theft of intellectual property is at the bottom most wrung of the issue with generative AI
