I think this is why I feel this hobby has been losing a lot of gas lately......
"Race" (lineage in old meaning) is a concept. Even in natural animals species races exist uniquely by isolation. Our genomes are all the time evolving by opposite trends (differenciating mutations, differenciating AND uniformising selection). The big difference between Humans and animals is that our extra-physical skills to adapt ourselves to diverse ecosystems allow us to ever lasting re-crossings. So before today globalisation, Humans were always balancing between raciation and "disraciation" processes. Today, the raciation aspect is close to zero. The only reliable wall against productive crossings is the difference in chromosomes numbers.
This seems to be more of trend in the West, and the New World, indeed.
With the elimination of Title 42 on the southern border, of Texas and Mexico, this will accelerate for sure. Because mass immigration is not only just coming from Latin American, but in fact the entire world, from Africa, to India for example.
Frankly, I think countries like China, who will eventually become the supreme Hegemone on Earth, is moving in the opposite direction though.
In fact, a 2013 pentagon analysis revealed that China thinks the USA will fall due to the process you are describing.

Yes the Chinese hang on to racial kind of reasoning, see the fate of the Uighurs....I guess The Chinese themselves have the biggest population problem due to the consistent one-child policy, their population will shrink considerably (that has already started). This presents them with considerable problems....
Are you sure this is a "racial" thing? The Uyghurs are the main, but just one of many Muslim groups equally persecuted. Were their lifestyles identical to those of mainstream Chinese, I doubt there would be a conflict. Mixing "race" and religion only leads to unfounded "conclusions" and unnecessary confusion.
They are not seen as (the dominant) Han Chinese, not in religion, language or indeed even race.

Eastern Countries have embraced robotization, while the west has relied on immigration (and outsourcing) from the third world for biological robots. I guess we will really see who had the better model by 2050.
It seems like the Eastern Countries are side-stepping a huge problem IMHO.
What is going to happen to all of these unskilled 3rd world laborers who will become unemployable when the West ultimately embraces robotization of labor? They're going to have to, if they want to compete with countries that utilize it as a means of production.
I actually think of it in a more positive way actually. Robotization, will be a civilizing force as well. Perhaps, the west could send robots as a form of humanitarian aid? Finally, there could be first-world level infrastructure afforded to countries that are in desperate need. Therefore, if their home countries are functional, they will not need to escape famine, and disease. Also they would be free from exploitation.
Your perspective is an interesting one, and it's certainly a potential avenue that could be explored. The idea of utilizing advanced technology such as robotics as a form of humanitarian aid could have profound impacts on developing countries, particularly those that are currently dependent on low-skilled labor.
In theory, robots could be used to boost infrastructure, provide services, and perform tasks that would otherwise require a large human workforce. This could potentially result in increased productivity and economic development. It could also reduce the need for human labor in dangerous or undesirable jobs, thereby improving living conditions.
However, it's important to note that this approach would also come with significant challenges. Here are a few:
Skill Gap and Unemployment: If robots take over the jobs currently performed by humans, it would be necessary to create new opportunities for those who become unemployed as a result. This could require substantial investment in education and vocational training to prepare workers for new types of jobs. Without this, there could be an increase in unemployment and social instability.
Economic Disparity: While robots could increase overall productivity, they could also exacerbate economic inequality if the benefits are not distributed evenly. Ensuring that the wealth generated by robotic labor benefits all members of society would be a major challenge.
Dependency and Autonomy: If robots are provided as a form of aid from Western countries, this could create a new form of dependency. It would be important to ensure that receiving countries are able to maintain and operate the technology independently to avoid this.
Cultural Impact: The introduction of advanced technology could have significant impacts on local cultures and ways of life. This would need to be managed carefully to respect and preserve cultural diversity.
In any case, the transition to a more robotized world will require thoughtful planning and policy-making to ensure that it benefits all people, not just those in wealthier nations. The potential humanitarian benefits are certainly exciting, but they must be balanced against these potential challenges.

Bing AI's analysis of OpenAI ChatGPT.
How can you not be?To me this informs me that people of high-intelligence are fascinated with AI.
That's true!
However it seems that for every proponent there are 3 cynics. Perhaps that reflects intelligence frequency as well.
There are many ethnic groups in China, so why are the Uyghur's the ones with all the issues?

I strongly doubt you are interested in anything that doesn't allow you to use the word race, racism or racist.
why are the Uyghur's the ones with all the issues?
Genetics research based on mtDNA and Y-DNA largely supports the Uyghur claim of indigenous descent.[76] The Uyghurs are a mixed population, with predominantly East Eurasian maternal lineages and West Eurasian paternal lineages, and in this respect are similar to the Bronze Age mummies of the Tarim Basin.[77]
