How Geothermal Energy can be Harnessed through Graphene Cables to Produce Drinkable Water and Batteries

     Graphene is a one molecule thick metal that has amazing properties, it is a perfect conductor of energy and heat, 100 times sturdier than steel. They have already fashioned it into smaller threads, which then can be woven together into larger cables to make a sturdy structure. We have a near limitless supply of ocean water, a limitless supply of geothermal energy in the earth's core. But why drill that far down, we have volcanic activity much closer to the surface in places like California. California is also suffering from drought. A factory could be conceived that would let in ocean water continuously into small compartments that are air tight, each one shaped in such as way that steam would be funneled efficiently to spin a series of smaller turbines and produce clean energy.       First have small threads of graphene in each compartment where the ocean water is. Have each smaller thread or series of threads connect back to each other to form...

Automation and AI could Shift the Balance of Power between China and America

Automation and AI could Shift the Balance of Power between China and America. https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=hkhecTI-DJo Over the past two decades, helped in large part to behind the scenes trade deals such as NAFTA and the TPP, there has been a massive shift from a production-based economy here in the United States to a consumer-based economy. In blunt terms this means that millions of factory jobs have left America and headed overseas. In this new free-trade system goods are made in places like China, India, Vietnam and shipped all the way to the United States to be purchased in large quantities. The primary driving force of this movement away from first-world production is the increase in profitability that occurs when you produce goods in a location that allows you to exploit cheap third-world labor. Despite the obvious human rights issue here and the terrible slave-like conditions these workers live in, there is little doubt this has harmed the US economy and empowered China to ...
