What is a Data Center?

[amigo de christo]

We're in an AI arms race, and AI data centers are a double-edged sword. On one hand, they require a lot of resources, and AI can be used for nefarious purposes. On the other hand, if we don't develop AI, other countries, like China, will dominate us. But for the first time in history, we have the ability to track and monitor every person on the planet 24/7. That's an awful lot of power, and the temptation to misuse it is great. Ultimately, I think AI will be part of the beast system.



So, basically a god, and people will start treating it as a replacement god. Some people actually want that, and that is the danger. There is also the concern we could become too dependent on AI. We could basically become like the Eloi in The Time Machine. We're going into uncharted territory here, and there are legitimate concerns where this technology could lead us.



How would we truly know if it were self-aware? Consciousness is subjective by nature. But I think it could get to the point where it would be impossible to distinguish from simulated self-awareness or actual self-awareness.



Even if it could do a better job, what would be the cost? We could become entirely dependent on it. Or it could decide it doesn't need us anymore, or worse yet, it would be better off if humans didn't exist. We're dealing with the rule of unintended consequences here.



Good luck with that. There's no way to keep that genie in the bottle.

its all a sham .
All of it . THEY make the cliam we are in this AI digital race . ITS like watching
all nations running to win a race , TO GET IN THE SAME GLOBAL SYSTEM the ELITES had planned for the ENTIRE WORLD .
ITS GLOBAL . GLO and BAL . its not for the nations , ITS FOR THE BEAST and it shall have all power over the nations .
What a hoax .

LOL When it starts asking questions or tells you what it wants...

Yeap.

I suppose we buy used cars then.

That's what I do. No screen in the dash for me!

You make sense Ziggy, that AI can solve a lot of our problems. But a lot of those problems have come about through solutions for other problems. It’s like bandaids for bandaids (for bandaids for bandaids etc..). That’s the thing with technology itself, it solves hard work but creates many problems on itself. And what was wrong with hard work in the first place? You see what I mean?
Don’t get me wrong, I like that I can talk to you all online about these things, but shouldn’t we gather together locally and experience other beings and share our thoughts. It is possible still, but it doesn’t happen as organically anymore as it once did.

Well my world is small. It's just me and dad. He's home hospice and I'm his caregiver. So I don't get out really at all in the last 2 or so years.
I believe people need to get more together and do lots of things like we used to do.
Go camping, hang out, go dancing, have just round table talks.
I suppose some do. I just don't see it from my little lens on the world.

The world has changed since the sniffles come round.
People got locked down, locked in, and afraid to breathe on their neighbors.
I hope someday we can just let that fear go and get back to a little normalcy.
I wish I had people come over and visit me and dad, but we are fairly rural, and the old folks have moved on, and the younger ones don't do visiting anymore.

When the internet first came out I was taking a class in Computer science at the local community college.
The paper you had to write for the end of the term had to be about the internet.
I was older than the other kids, they were fresh out of high school and I been living in the real world working and raising a family for over 15 years already.

They wrote about Microsoft and Bill Gates and all the new discoveries there would be.

I wrote about the disassociation and the loneliness that with less personal interactions with other people would end up having.

I got a C- .

LOL


And here we are.

Somehow in my wildest dreams, I hope the US manages to get control of all the minerals and parts and pieces, puts them all in one basket, and starts cracking eggs.


You know when The US started the CIA it was supposed to be to gather intelligence to keep us safe.
Over time the CIA grew so big that it ended up turning on the very people that created it.
I remember John F. Kennedy saying that before he left office he was going to smash the CIA into a million pieces.
Then they assassinated him.

I don't believe the world needs AI to be honest.
We need Farmers and builders and small businesses.
The way life used to be.
Maybe we have to blow it all up in order to begin again.
Maybe we even been this way before and still haven't learned from our mistakes.

How do you turn back time?

It used to be that intelligence agencies were only created in times of war and then were discontinued afterwards, like the OSS. The CIA was our first attempt at a permanent intelligence agency. It only took less than 16 years before it appeared they had become corrupt (when JFK was assassinated). Knowledge is power, which makes intelligence agencies extremely powerful. And power, as they say, corrupts. Every country that has a permanent intelligence agency likely has a deep statel. Administrations will come and go, but they remain.

well we have Five Eyes each of those have their own Intelligence Agency. I'm pretty sure most advanced countries do.

So if all this data is collected in one place, ultimately. Information will be pulled from multiple data centers at a time I would assume.
How will Intelligence be kept separate from the rest of the data?
All I can think of is a SKIF.
Makes me think of "ballrooms" .

I wonder if that is to keep nosey noses out?
I wonder what MI6 is doing these days with the way England is in.
Then there is Mossad. Those we plebs know. I'm sure there are those most don't know.
And only a few are aware of.
Snow White and the 7 dwarfs is a system of 7 computer systems. I think they are inactive now.

Then we have these Flock camera's. That's a new one for me. I don't get out much these days.
I know they have city cameras. You can watch Times Square NYC 24/7 on live feed camera.
I know they have license plate recorders when you go through toll booths and pay with a pass, they bill you.
But I haven't been over a bridge let alone a toll booth in the last 10 years.

I am so far outside society that none of the physical impact of the changes will have much effect,
but the way we do things online will, and they are everyday.
The internet has changed since Windows 98, just saying, and I was already in my 30's so I missed that early learning indoctrination of how to be a computer whiz.

I don't know what the lasting effect AI will have if it becomes the thing that does our thinking for us.
That's a scary prospect indeed.
And I always say to myself, I don't have to worry about it, I'll be gone by then. And yet, I am still here.

Us Q tards as some like to call us, have a saying we been saying since fall of 2017,
Where We Go One We Go All

It sounds simple right?

Where are we going?????

I rather we didn't play with things we didn't understand, but I guess that has always been the nature of man.
Just can't leave things good enough alone.

I guess time will tell.
