Interesting read, especially the bits on the 'clean room' notion and
American exceptionalism. "The unwritten movie rules are: AI’s don’t
get created in Mexico City, any more than aliens land in Stalingrad.
Superman is from Kansas, not Shanghai."

I had a bit of a start when I got to the video clip he included,
though, as BANGS is actually a local rapper here in Australia. He's
basically an 'outsider art' version of rap and his story is much more
interesting than the point the author is trying to make with him here.
