Sounds like a great opportunity to build a markplace of these entities, where sellers can sell them to buyers and the marketplace automates as much of the paperwork as possible.

Theres several open source options you can use.

The highest github stars one is called `zed` another one i've heard about is `Cline`

theirs also a few that yc backed ones:

`Void`

`Continue`

`PearAI`

For what its worth the non yc ones have way more github stars but im sure the yc ones are good too. I think `Continue` is the biggest yc one.

The value is not in the literal buildings, the value is in the people, the managers,engineers,etc and the owners who know how to run it.

The people who are hired and organized by the korean comapny. This is litterlly the logic that collapsed venezuela's oil industry after it was seized by the state.

Any one with a brain knows it is not stolen, but nevertheless the fact that people will claim so is a risk.

Honestly, that's not a bad idea for a start up. Maybe a marketplace where people can see what things cost in different places and book a surgery directly.

"attack on economic activity of the competitors"

Thats competition. It is a feature of markets.

not a bug.

A free market just means that people are allowed to buy and sell what they want. If a government decides to help some industries that is irrelevant.

It stops being free when government attacks economic activity, not when it promotes it.

Ok, but If elections are decided by the small swing group, wouldnt that mean a small targeted impact from AI would could *more* effective not less? If all it needs to do it have a 1 percent of impact that makes a huge difference.
