While the URI points to a Wired article entitled to be about the #Metaverse the article is actually about #industrial, #manufacturing and #robotics use of #DigitalTwins — that term is used frequently throughout the article. While LLM/GPT style #generative technology is mentioned, imagine, as you read the article, #causal methods for multi-modal, multiple model composable, causal digital twins

#Trump repeatedly said today that companies were investing more than ever in the #UnitedStates. Actually, data showed that total construction spending on #manufacturing in the United States had fallen after hitting a peak in July & that companies were slashing their plans for capital expenditure amid the uncertainty about #tariffs. Trump said he wouldn’t change his mind on placing tariffs on #Canada as a result of today’s talks.

"Today, a well-paying manufacturing job requires a hard science background, centered around engineering, technical proficiency, or in many cases, wiring and operating complex automated technology.

"We don’t want to bring back the jobs of yesterday — we want to enable the operational efficiency and innovation of tomorrow," Kenworthy says, stressing the need to "skate to where the puck is going" as manufacturing roles continue to evolve.

The exact type of manufacturing the U.S. hones in on will factor heavily as well. Textile and garment industry jobs aren't likely to attract American workers, Kenworthy theorizes, given the relatively low pay, poor hours and high physical demands. The focus instead should be on "anything in the high-tech sector," including the semiconductor sector, pharmaceuticals, automotive and aerospace, all of which beget the need for highly-skilled, well-trained workers with engineering backgrounds.

The problem right now, though, is that the infrastructure to educate and entice these workers simply doesn't exist, and there are currently no plans to build that out anytime soon, all while the Trump administration has sought to deport the very people who would want those manufacturing jobs the most.

"A broad program to empower and build a next-generation manufacturing workforce would be what is necessary to make this effective," Kenworthy posits. "Without that, all this effort to bring manufacturing back to the United States is not going to be effective.""

Attack the System - Anarcho-Pluralism & All the News That's Not Fit to Print · China’s factories are in another world - Attack the Systemhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YiaDXGQk7k China's industrial proficiency is shocking to manufacturing experts. Their degrees of automation, of engineering expertise, and supply chain domination have no close peer across other modern economies. China's latest innovation is "dark factories", massive production centers that produce complex products with no humans involved. In an absurd example, a Chinese factory in Guangdong builds
