!0-4 on THAT!
I ain't too thrilled about it either!
But? Things like this and even more to come HAVE to transpire!
I could give explanations concerning why and how after one does the calculations of "666" and why that number is (a) "man?"
But then?
I'd hafta kill ya! :Ohz clfhhlo
I think I've heard them all

You all will stand in line and get your mrna shots now and do so proudly. The beast is taking shape right before your eyes.
When A=1 and Z=26 we get C = 3 x 6 = 18 O = 15 x 6 = 90 M = 13 x 6 = 78 P = 16 x 6 = 96 U = 21 x 6 = 126 T = 20 x 6 = 120 E = 5 x 6 = 30 R = 18 x 6 = 108 TOTAL = 666

I dont know where he is getting that but Hebrew is just less throw the dice at things when it comes to their Gematria. Use for example, "Man" take the number 6 (or the day man was created, the Sixth day)

In Hebrew Gematria

For example, Adam, first man (and his beginning) 6th day

Sixth "שִׁשִּׁי"
in the Hebrew Gematria generator equals 610

Day "יוֹם"
in the Hebrew Gematria generator equals 56

When you just add those numbers they come to 666 (in first man)

It doesnt really need so many gymnastics

And if you add all three 6's you get 18. Add 1+8 and you get 9. Or,an upside down 6. Or a three ,3,dimensional trinity,3.

Confirmation bias. Great post.

Confirmation bias. Great post.

And as you can count up the number of the first man/old man Adam in the day he was created, you can also count up the number at the end of Moses in the first covenant/old covenant. For example, Moses died 120 years old.

The same for Moses (in his end) 120

Duet 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died

Hundred "מֵאָה" in the Hebrew Gematria system equals 46

Twenty "עֶשְׂרִים"
in the Hebrew Gematria system equals 620

They also come to 666 (in the first covenant/old covenant) counting those numbers

Which is kind of weird though, you can count the number of a completely different number and it come up a different number altogether. or such ascounting 120= 666

You can really go off on that, for example, both are men, both are including in the time death reigned, one shows first man/old man (and his begining/ the day he was created) whereas the other shows the first covenant/old covenant (and the end of Moses/ his death).

Then you look at the years of Moses and the same number of years are mentioned before the flood

Gen 6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

Deut 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.

Which was right before going over the Jordan, and disputes on the actual body of Moses

The number pops up here and there, like now being the body of Christ

Acts 1:15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about an hundred and twenty,)

That sort of thing

Rev 13:17 - so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.
Rev 13:18 - This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.

It's probably premature to conclude 666 stands for "computer" but in our time and our (increasing) dependence of internet (governments and people) the one in control of the internet or can manipulate it has unlimited power. Stop online money transfers and many of us can't buy their daily food and so on. I only don't see what the "mark" has to do with buying daily food.

On the other hand it's my conviction that AI will have more impact and is more dangerous than the invention of the atomic bomb. The things you can do with AI are unlimited, both good and bad. In the world of ongoing cyber attacks AI (for instance) can create the perfect hacker and penetrate every computer that is online, can stop a whole country from functioning and may become an easy target for a foreign attack.

Everything in God's own time. That's why I don't get worked up about contemporary current events being linked to signs of the end of days hypotheticals.

Whatever comes,those in Christ are ready. And not afraid.

BY Reuters1 minute read

President Donald Trump is due to announce private sector investment of up to $500 billion of artificial intelligence infrastructure on Tuesday, two sources told Reuters.
OpenAI, SoftBank and Oracle plan a joint venture called Stargate, and have committed $100 billion initially and then up to $500 billion into Stargate over the next four years, the sources said.
CBS first reported the expected announcement.
SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, OpenAI’s Sam Altman and Oracle’s Larry Ellison are due at the White House on Tuesday, according to the CBS report.
Oracle and SoftBank did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Oracle shares were up 6% on the reports. Nvidia, Arm Holdings and Dell shares also rose.
In March 2024, The Information, a technology news website, reported OpenAI and Microsoft were working on plans for a $100 billion data center project that would include an artificial intelligence supercomputer also called “Stargate” set to launch in 2028. It was not immediately clear if the announcement was an update to this previously reported venture.
The AI supercomputer, Stargate — Donald Trump to announce $500 Billion investment — a watershed for U.S. technological leadership. Stargate: To change the course of artificial intelligence with super computing, enabling widespread innovation in AI sectors like healthcare, defense & energy. Not only would this initiative put the U.S. in a leading position as an AI superpower, but it would also mean hundreds of thousands of jobs created in new research and development institutes. The price is often cited as a major red flag by critics, but proponents say the investment is necessary to keep America competitive with AI growing faster than ever. The Stargate could change once and for all how we imagine AI fits into our future together in the world. SecuroomAi analytics could be a game-changer for tracking Trump’s $500B Stargate AI supercomputer investment. Set alerts for market shifts tied to OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank. Use dashboards to monitor job creation and infrastructure progress. Secure accounts with 2FA to safely manage sensitive investment data.

Already AI is doing a better job diagnosing medical diseases than human doctors.
AI will also perform robotic surgeries, they have finer control than hands. And they can have surgical robots anywhere. And the robots can have human oversight watching remotely.

Military AI drones will fight wars, they will fly and shoot weapons, not directly under human control, just partially.
Of course, Skynet dystopian world is even possible. But I don't read that in the scriptures.
AI advancement will eliminate some jobs and create others.
Warehousing, stocking, retrieval, shipping all can be robotic with minor human oversight.

Researchers Use AI to Digitally Unwrap a ‘Unreadable’ 2,000-Year-Old Vesuvius Scroll for the First Time​

In a sun-drenched corner of Italy nearly two millennia ago, a catastrophe buried a treasure trove of ancient knowledge under a thick coat of volcanic ash. When Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 C.E., it not only destroyed cities like Pompeii and Herculaneum but entombed a whole library in a Roman villa, its scrolls carbonized and lost forever, or did they? For decades, scholars could only dream of decoding these charred relics without destroying them in the process. But now, thanks to artificial intelligence and a stunning scientific effort, the dream is turning into reality. In a groundbreaking discovery, AI has helped reveal, for the first time ever, the title and author of one of these unreadable scrolls, according to Nature.

The text, known to researchers as PHerc. 172 and kept at Oxford’s Bodleian Libraries, was confirmed to be 'On Vices' by the Epicurean philosopher Philodemus, a prominent figure of the first century B.C.E. This is no small victory; the discovery unlocks a piece of lost philosophical thought and proves that AI can decode our history without laying a finger on it.


The revelation earned Marcel Roth, a student at Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg, and Micha Nowak from Gray Swan AI in Pittsburgh, the $60,000 First Title Prize from the Vesuvius Challenge (an open science initiative aimed at decoding the sealed Herculaneum scrolls, as per Nature. Michael McOsker, a papyrologist at University College London, remarked, "It’s the first scroll where the ink could just be seen on the scan…Nobody knew what it was about. We didn’t even know if it had writing on," stated The Guardian.

The scroll in question is part of a collection discovered in 1752 inside the Villa of the Papyri, believed to have belonged to Julius Caesar’s father-in-law. Several scrolls were found, their contents sealed within carbonized shells too sensitive to be opened. For decades, the experts were in a dilemma; the more they tried to decode it, the more crusty and dusty it became. But all that changed in 2015, when experts successfully used X-ray tomography to scan and virtually unwrap a different scroll from En-Gedi. This paved the way for a stellar approach using micro-CT scans, machine learning, and many more ways to decode this mystery, stated Gizmodo.


McOsker remarked, "The pace is ramping up very quickly … All of the technological progress that’s been made on this has been in the last three to five years and on the timescales of classicists, that’s unbelievable. Everything we’re getting from the Herculaneum library is new to us," according to The Guardian. Intriguingly, the scroll’s full title is speculated to be 'On Vices and Their Opposite Virtues and In Whom They Are and About What,' making it kind of a self-help manual of older times. Maybe self-help was known to ancient people as well.

Moreover, Dr Brent Seales, a computer scientist at the University of Kentucky, remarked, "We’re seeing evidence of ink in many of the new scrolls we’ve scanned, but we haven’t converted that into coherent text yet…That’s our current bottleneck: converting the massive scan data into organised sections that are properly segmented, virtually flattened, and enhanced so that the evidence of ink can then be interpreted as actual text." With 18 scrolls already scanned and 20 more underway at facilities like the UK’s Diamond Light Source and France’s European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, researchers are hopeful to know the unknown.

Trump gets 1.4 Trillion dollar deal with UAE for US technology companies

This is our oil money we spent buying oil from them coming back to us.

During his visit to the Middle East, President Donald Trump focused on strengthening U.S. relations with Gulf states, especially the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The trip included crucial economic agreements, such as a $10 billion U.S. military investment in Qatar and talks with President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan about cooperation on artificial intelligence. Trump praised the UAE's infrastructure, noting his preference for grandeur.
The UAE announced a $1.4 trillion, 10-year investment plan in the U.S., focusing on AI, semiconductors, energy, and manufacturing. Trump noted $14.5 billion for Boeing aircrafts, $60 billion in energy partnerships, and an AI project with 500,000 Nvidia chips. Some deals are non-binding.

Google CEO has an interesting comment on super intelligent AI that 99% of all electricity use will be for AI in the future


It is not enough for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) to make the world’s most advanced artificial intelligence (AI) chips. It plans to offer the technology infrastructure that links them together and makes them run more efficiently. This is another step forward for a company that cannot be stopped as it has dominated what may be the most important technology in history.


24/7 Wall St. Key Points:​

  • Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) plans to offer the technology infrastructure that links artificial intelligence chips together and makes them run more efficiently.
  • This could make electricity-hungry installations less likely to use what are already record levels of electricity.
  • Take this quiz to see if you’re ontrack to retire. (sponsored)
“Using NVLink Fusion, hyperscalers can work with the NVIDIA partner ecosystem to integrate NVIDIA rack-scale solutions for seamless deployment in data center infrastructure,” the company said. In other words, Nvidia will offer technology to outside firms that will tie chips together to speed up chip-to-chip communication.


Tech companies that deploy AI chips across server systems can buy pre-configured racks. This allows them to skip a step, speeding up the ability to knit servers together and do so rapidly at scale. Usually, AI companies have to turn to third parties to do this or do it on their own. Nvidia calls this “interconnect technology.”

Using Less Electricity​

The new platform, in theory, speeds up the rate at which tech companies can build server systems that run AI chips. Nvidia also says its technology is more efficient. This could make electricity-hungry installations less likely to use what are already record levels of electricity.

Former CEO Eric Schmidt recently said in a presentation, “99 Percent of All Electricity Will Be Used to Power Superintelligent AI.” He added in comments to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, "What we need from you is energy in all forms, renewable, non-renewable, whatever. It needs to be there, and it needs to be there quickly."


Energy use is at the heart of what could slow AI availability and adoption. AI server farms must compete across a weak U.S. electricity grid and limited energy generation that already supplies residential and legacy business customers, Bitcoin mining, and a rising use of air conditioning worldwide driven by global warming.

AI giants, including Microsoft, Meta, and Amazon, have been looking for places and ways to provide electricity for their AI aspirations. Some will rely on new nuclear energy installations, solar, and wind. However, electricity will not be available online fast enough to feed their energy hunger. Nvidia may have just launched a system that will help.

Eric Schmidt, who was Google CEO for a decade, says ignoring AI could make workers irrelevant. REUTERS/Beck Diefenbach© REUTERS/Beck Diefenbach
  • Eric Schmidt warned that anyone, from artists to doctors, who doesn't embrace AI will be left behind.
  • The former Google CEO recently used AI to get up to speed quickly on a rocket company he bought.
  • Schmidt warned that the pace of change could catch many off guard.
Eric Schmidt thinks every worker, from CEOs to artists, needs to get to grips with AI — or risk being left behind.


The former Google CEO argued in a recent TED interview that the speed of AI progress was forcing a fundamental shift in every job, from the arts to business to science.

"Each and every one of you has a reason to use this technology," Schmidt said, referring to AI.

"If you're an artist, a teacher, a physician, a businessperson, a technical person, if you're not using this technology, you're not going to be relevant compared to your peer groups and your competitors and the people who want to be successful. Adopt it, and adopt it fast."

Schmidt, who ran Google from 2001 to 2011, says AI tools let anyone get up to speed in almost any field. He pointed to his recent decision to buy a rocket company despite knowing little about aerospace.

"It's an area that I'm not an expert in, and I want to be an expert, so I'm using deep research," Schmidt said, who was named CEO at Relativity Space in March, a California rocket startup vying to compete with SpaceX.


He said this kind of rapid learning was just the beginning. Schmidt pointed to studies that estimate AI could drive a "30% increase in productivity" annually — a jump so dramatic that "economists have no models for what that kind of increase looks like."

While predicting that entire industries could be disrupted as AI simplifies or automates work, some professions will evolve rather than disappear in his view.

"Do you really think that we're going to get rid of lawyers? No, they're just going to have more sophisticated lawsuits," Schmidt said.

'Marathon, not a sprint'​

The pace of change may catch many off guard: "As this stuff happens quicker, you will forget what was true two years ago or three years ago. That's the key thing. So my advice to you all is ride the wave, but ride it every day."

When asked if he had any advice for those feeling overwhelmed by the pace of change, Schmidt, who now advises governments and startups on tech strategy, offered some perspective from his own experience.


"One thing to remember is that this is a marathon, not a sprint," he said. "Every day you get up, and you just keep going."

At the AI summit in Paris in February, Schmidt criticised Europe's AI laws as too strict but insisted that regulation was essential. "It's really important that governments understand what we're doing and keep their eye on us," he told BBC News.

He's made similar warnings before, calling in December for "meaningful control" over military AI.

AI may someday do all computer programing.
I suppose you could talk to AI and tell it I want to see this, etc... and AI would do the programming to make it happen in real time.
