China makes the future feel normal 🇨🇳🤖📱

• Super-apps & Payments. No cash, no cards. WeChat Pay and Alipay work everywhere from street vendors, museums, vending machines, restaurants, trains.

• Robots & Drones. Hotels, cleaning, policing, tour guides, coffee, ice cream, portraits. Some polished, some still assisted.

• Identity & Tracking. Trains, planes, payments, lockers, vending machines. Huge privacy tradeoff, but also everyday convenience and safety.

• Public Transportation. Electric scooters, cars, high-speed trains, abundant metros, shared bikes, futuristic architecture.

• AI & tech optimism. From museums to innovation centers to schools, technology is presented as progress, not something to fear.
