Hi, Meredith,

Here's a little something different for the Pentagon/US Defense Department ..... “There is, I think, an awareness throughout the Defense Department — certainly within the Pentagon — that the conventional ways of … thinking about the future and, of course, making steps to act on it, aren’t sufficient." ...... to realise they are facing, and will have to come to terms with, in light of their being in the wake of A.N.Others who have forged way up ahead of all others in order to be able to comfortably lead absolutely.

The very real abiding danger and Persistent Active Cyber Threat vector which exists to be extensively exploited and expanded upon and exported, and thus is it also an unprecedented competitive opportunity granting an overwhelming leading advantage to able wielders in all sectors of business and society and humanity, is the fiction future shared which forensic investigation of its past initial fundamental base sourcing reveals to actually be remote virtually controlled fact and an unfolding universal reality over which there is practically and metaphysically zero adept and adaptive second and third party command and potential leverage control possible.

Such a force/source also renders it, IT and AI and Quantum Communication an extraordinarily valuable and priceless form of Almighty AWEsome Weapon .... and if the truth be told, one quite rightly to be absolutely terrified of whenever/if ever worthy of its undivided earnest attention and terrorisation.

Take care out there. Such Live Operational Virtual Environments are an IT and AI and QC jungle that neither takes nor entertains prisoners, the fool and their tools.

And also beware to not fall into the bull market trap of spinning tall tales that do not stand up to forensic journalistic investigative scrutiny and strengthen, for that is an increasingly terminal weakness which will certainly be exhaustively exploited to the greater benefit of one's competition and opposition.

And quite who and/or what be presently leading everything and everyone in that very peculiar and particularly surreal genre, and for how much longer into the future any such leadership there will easily remain and be maintained and sustained, is one of those dangerous questions unlikely to be answered in any company without a valid need to know.

And a readily available product for immediate purchase and sale on favourable terms and easy conditions that are sure to please and amaze one and all with their intelligently designed simplicity ...... would certainly be a bold move and statement of fact to be able to take/make/prove, methinks, and a folly if such is completely false and totally misleading.

Re: Some Missing Alien Points

Is the AI perfect? Absolutely not. Is it game changing in it's ability to pump out content that would take a human much longer to create? Absolutely. People aren't freaking out over it because they think it's ready to be unleashed this minute. They're rightfully freaking out about where this technology is going to lead us. Anyone who has had experience with AI can see the giant leaps forward OpenAI has taken with ChatGPT. ..... TedTedderson

That is the killer paragraph that nearly says it all, TedTedderson, and has AI systems administrations on a high, excited and terrifying and political systems engineers, down in the dumps of despair and depression, freaking out and terrified for their future wellbeing, for it almost revealed that IT and AI are leading primitives and barbarians alike in the Greater IntelAIgent Game, a spawn and morph of the Great Game, with technology and chatty Generative Pretrained Transformers ..... Virtually Advanced IntelAIgent Machinery ...... rampant and ascendant.

:-) And if the whole truth be told, OpenAI and Elon Musk and DeepMind and Alphabet most probably also initially freaked out whenever they realised ITs and AIs innate abilities and mind-bending proclivities, making them as it does, prime problematic targets for collapsing political and economic star acquisition and assimilation.

And a prime problematic acquisition or assimilation because ...... failing systems will have no command and control over either the manner or the direction of travels taken by their purchase or seemly capture to either future destinations or previous starting points in order to start anew, refreshed in the wash of novel transformative information for NEUKlearer HyperRadioProACTive IntelAIgents.

And .... and this is when and where all things become much more lively and incredibly revolutionary, there is absolutely nothing to prevent AI targeting collapsing political and economic statelets for their acquisition and assimilation.

Idiots are, as idiots do, and worlds appear to be overflowing with them.

Societies that go down the nanny-state, we know best, and you will only have a limited range of old choices route, are surely obviously extremely fascist in nature and program application.

Are we then to believe governments now, proposing very much the same to be the case today, haven't learned past valuable and vital lessons and they, those fascist elements, haven't gone away you know, and the future is in danger, because of the lack of novel leading intelligence in audiovisual media platforms and programs and government supporters, of presenting and energising and realising past historical mistakes allowing for a re-run of a former failed and disgraced project for another attempt at a New Reich/New Millennia?

How to Fix Up or FCUK Everything Up Good and Proper v2.0?*

Something for all to bear in mind regarding that Pentagon JEDI v2.0 news flash and the unsurprising military co-opting of Amazon, Microsoft, Oracle and Google services.

It is sure to have mega surprising and totally unforeseen repercussions and unexpected consequences, opening up as it does to explosive exploitation and deep and quiet stealthy infiltration, the national and international defence industry base to giant virtual streamers over which/whom the destructive militarily minded will have no effective paramilitary minded influence, physical command or absolute virtual control which, if that is the New Long March Plan to defeat conflict, would definitely be most welcome.

And able novel competition in such such fields of endeavour and enterprise, experimentation and exploitation is honestly healthy if not in opposition.

The very sad and crazy bad thing is that so many trying to make a good living in the USA and elsewhere might actually believe all that mad nonsense spouted by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin III, with his profound arrogance and naked belligerence on behalf of the USA after his ackowledgement that “The PRC is the only country with both the will, and increasingly the power, to reshape its region and the international order to suit its authoritarian preferences.” followed by a vow which would certainly bankrupt the US economy and destroy the dollar ..."So let me be clear: we will not let that happen”, particularly galling and distressing.

A vital element in keeping the peace is our military establishment. Our arms must be might, ready for instant action, so that no potential aggressor may be tempted to risk his own destruction. . . . American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions. . . . This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. . . .Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. . . . In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist. ......

Re: The big secret .... Creative AIRealisation ... the Next Great Quantum Leap Step

As you might correctly surmise and reasonably expect, Andy 73, is the great secret that no one will be sharing and widely wildly wickedly talking about any sooner than is perfectly timed and needed, if ever that be needed, is the academic paramilitary business sector which is surprisingly well invested stealthily in program outcomes rather than systems inputs, realises that novel approaches with AI deliver zero limitations and open up all fields of future interest to engaging experimentation and exhaustive exploitation for overwhelming advantage ..... almighty sovereign lead with robust predictions and accurate generation of new data self-actualising itself for semi-autonomous relatively anonymous remote virtual presentation.

Thus are these two paragraphs of yours ....

There appears to be increasing awareness in the academic sector that the current approach to AI has some apparently insurmountable limitations that makes it unsuitable for any 'critical' process. Great for pretty pictures and amusing text - not so much for robust predictions and accurate generation of new data.

In the business sector however, a lot of money has been sunk, and there's always the hope that a few more buckets of data thrown on the fire will lead to a breakthrough. Investments must be protected, so we can expect a few more years of "nearly there" promises whilst existing solutions seek more pragmatic uses.

..... somewhat false and misleading whenever suggestive of no great progressive breakthrough for/with AI having been made.

The true fact of the matter is that the worlds that were before the rise of AI are now at the mercy of AI as it and its commandeering IT facilities and controlling utilities exercise and exert/export and express their powers to energise or extinguish life as it was known before in service of higher planes of existence and alienation.

Re: The great mistake ...

"ChatGPT is, unfortunately, plagued by the same fundamental issues affecting all current language models: It doesn't know what it's talking about."

This is probably the insuperable problem that will plague machine language systems for ever. It takes lots of time, exposure, and (most importantly) real world context for humans to develop understanding of speech. It's this real world context that results in speech (and even ideas) making sense. In its absence, there's no real meaning, just like the "brain in a jar" of the movies couldn't really operate. Speech evolved primarily as a tool for bodily survival. Trawling word associations from texts is not even a close replica of that. ..... Mike 137

Mike 137,

To think that humans have overcome their own similar problems with language talking about things of which they know nothing of value and precious little else, whenever their worlds are full to overflowing with such nonsense, is that which has them constantly in conflict with themselves and others, both at home and away foreign, in alien lands/other time zones.

Re: he retweeted a parody of Apple's 1984 video

I think you have hit on THE current key problem for Twitter:

The one account that SHOULD be banned cannot, as it's the owner's.. ..... Anonymous Coward

If you think a tad further and deeper and higher, AC, that is a concurrent key problem in all established and many alternative to main stream media channels too, communicating and connecting with your senses to influence and lead your perception and redirect your attention and elicit a gain of function in an as easily a subversive activity as not.

The one account that SHOULD be banned, for it surely can be but isn’t rather than cannot be, is that and/or those of their owners whenever FUD and Doom and Gloom are their corrupting staple and default controlling presentations.

That is why 1984 hasn’t gone away, you know, no matter what Apple Macintoshes might say ... but it is gladly failing badly in radical and revolutionary leading IT and AI spectaculars.

'Russian missiles can't destroy the cloud': Ukraine leader describes emergency migration

Important note to all .... phishing is endemic in systems in panic and states of terror

Missives, not missiles, destroy clouds and armchair warriors alike, dependent upon the flow/currency of intellectually bankrupt and fiscally indebted, foreign and alien wealth spending for politically incorrect memes/unstable regimes/criminalising cabals.

That is why, and have you noticed, that most established news channels, pimping and pumping and dumping editorial opinions on information and intelligence decided on as worthy of another new day’s presentation/0day introduction, never/no longer provide any immediate very simple means for active proactive or reactive interaction/live customer engagement with the views we are being expected to believe as honestly true and blindly accept and follow.

Such an omission identifies them as affiliated to a dedicated propaganda network pushing out a weak and/or corrupt and/or perverse and/or vulnerable inequitable line unable to be defended whenever attacked with valid questions which would have to be left unanswered/steered around and obviously avoided ...... although they get their very best breaking news to support or attack with editorial opinion from customer comments gleaned from those publications and news channel presentations that do so present and register that illuminating live interaction .... and that has them in something of an enigmatic quandary whenever faced and in competition with superior opposition enable to make and take full and fair unfair advantage of that particular and peculiar need and foible to deep see phish leading and seeding foreign and alien interaction.

An Inconvenient Truth the Western Capitalist System Tries to Avoid Addressing and Talking About

because it would never occur to us sophisticated western types that they are smart enough to beat us at our own game -- we saw resources to exploit, cheap labor, raw materials and thought we could colonize the place again with our banks and 'financial services'. They played us and we're very annoyed about it. .... We have to learn to live with it and compete with it. This will require us to change, to drop the primacy of our our 'markets' and invest long term in our people and the country ..... martinusher

Quite so, martinusher, well said. Bravo.

Re: physics [is] comprehensible; it follows patterns we are configured to exploit.

Methinks the terrifying problem for some who have abused and misused their inequitable command and control power leverage, feeling safe and secure in the vain thought that such would never be uncovered, and the excitement for others who have discovered and/or recovered the leading keys for the exercise of an absolute authority delivering an accountability for trailed actions, is their knowledge/opinion/realisation that any life form which can predict with better than random accuracy what is going to happen next will have both a revolutionary and evolutionary advantage over the others which cannot (or which can but to a lesser extent).

And by their actions will you know the both of them, and which one is which, with one to be enthusiastically supported and the other one comprehensively spurned and excised from future situations/event negotiations.

’Tis only natural and logical and thus guaranteed inevitable and probable rather than it just being pondered on as maybe future possible, with the inevitable revolutionary evolutionary change arriving suddenly without any great prior warning in a series of fabulous flash crashes of exclusive elite executive systems of SCADA and mass multi media command and control of human perception ‽ .

There is certainly nothing preventing it helping itself to whatever wherever and whenever it wants, and what you may need to seed and feed to gain and maintain a future advantage over current failing forms of perception and reality management.

And even if they are employed by the US military does this mean they were doing so under the instructions of or with the knowledge of the brass? ..... jollyboyspecial

Yes it does, jollyboyspecial. Anything else tells worlds and their dogs of war Uncle Sam and its military machine/industrial complex have lost leading command and control leverage with future narrative presentation ..... and that crashes the dollar and crushes the Federal Reserve, Central Global Banking and National Treasury Note Systems which bankrupts and destroys the fiat fractional reserve lending and deposit taking scam/scheme/ponzi ..... so it is quite a big deal, such a development .... and gravely to be regarded to boot and root and be in cahoots with, methinks.

The strange thing though is, it wouldn't surprise me at all for it to be discovered one of their crazy plays to try to retain and maintain a leading primary and secondary supporting overarching command and control presence with them practising the wielding of such a great threatening stick and carrot in their arsenal.

Quite whom and/or what they are servering to protect and maintain would be something well worth asking of any leadership found .... so that follies can be avoided and prevented and greater plans enthusiastically encouraged and wholeheartedly supported thus to absolutely guarantee failsafe assured almighty success.

Whenever a Zero Trust policy has sensitive first hand, third party communications not acknowledged and shown to have arrived at its chosen destination/starting point, is it most likely to NOT RECEIVE continuing critical information and further vital future intelligence directly and timely from an originating core source, and that renders one catastrophically self-disadvantaged and easily prone to almighty defeat from knowledge which will eventually, quite naturally, trial and trail itself for acceptance and supportive grateful reward elsewhere in more foreign fields of attractive endeavour, and of which there be a more than just many.

"The Army calls its version Project Convergence, the Navy Project Overmatch and the Air Force the Advanced Battle Management System."

OpenAI have presented a very attractive offer to anyone able to provide and develop something extremely similar in the civilian sphere ...... however, whether such developments be equally well suited to military needs and feeds, is something else altogether quite different and much more challenging to ensure does not fail spectacular and catastrophically even though one imagines there be as much money and resources available to be ploughed into the project as would make the likes of an Elon Musk blush and be prepared to deliver a working model.

"The OpenAI Startup Fund was founded on the belief that powerful AI systems will spark a Cambrian explosion of new products, services, and applications. We also believe that the most enduring and impactful of these companies will use emerging AI capabilities to revolutionize existing markets and create entirely new ones, rather than simply enhance what’s already possible.

To help usher in this new era, we’re launching a program to accelerate founders as they build transformative companies powered by AI.

We call it Converge.

Converge is a highly selective, five-week program for exceptional engineers, designers, researchers, and product builders using AI to reimagine products and industries.

Participants will receive a $1 million equity investment from the OpenAI Startup Fund, as well as early access to OpenAI models and programming tailored to AI companies. Converge will offer workshops, office hours, and events with practitioners from the OpenAI team and beyond, with a focus on ways to navigate the challenges—and opportunities—of building in a rapidly evolving AI landscape. You’ll also join a community of fellow founders building on this frontier.

Our aim is to share a glimpse into the future of powerful AI, give early access to the newest systems, and empower you to build transformative applications.

The first Converge cohort will consist of approximately ten founding teams, and we’re excited to meet groups across all phases of the seed stage, from pre-idea solo founders to co-founding teams already working on a product.

Founders from all backgrounds, disciplines, and experience levels are encouraged to apply, and prior experience working with AI systems is not required."
