There's not going to be a next China. It's always been expected that as China's wages keep growing, eventually they will become too expensive to be a manufacturing superpower and a lot of cheap labour jobs will shift elsewhere, to India or Africa or whatever. No. Those kinds of jobs are obviously going to be made redundant through AI. Manufacturing will move to whichever country can produce the cheapest, cleanest energy. And that's why Australia will be the next manufacturing superpower. Remember this post in 20 years.
