Ummm point of order: most goods for the usa are being produced in the states, most oil in the US is sourced there too now. Very little shipping to the states goes via this route, as it is more likely to go via the Pacific from Asia or via the Atlantic from Europe.
As such, this has almost zero impact on us citizens, so no this is not a tax on Americans. It is a charge that mostly Europeans will be paying instead.
Ai is but a tool. It is how people utilise the tool that determines their intelligence with it. If you use it to enhance your abilities by reducing your own processing time, it can be brilliant. If you use it to outsource a brain to do your thinking for you, you'll get something far worse.
