MACDONALD: Captain Planet vs AI Data Centers

AI hungry everything is driving good news on the energy front, but not good enough, or I should say, soon enough. Previous Big Tech “friends” to even the most woke of environmental movements, including the lithium, wind, and solar factions, which are nothing but ‘green-friendly,’ have kicked their former green lovers to the curb.

PAGE: Finger-Pointing Bernie Has Himself To Blame for Looming AI Power Crisis

Let’s talk about Senator Bernie Sanders, artificial intelligence, and—of course—blaming Donald Trump for America’s rising electricity rates. After spending his political career saying NO to large baseload power producers, Bernie Sanders now says there’s “not enough electricity to go around.” And—big surprise—he’s pointing the finger at the billionaires again.  In a letter dated November 10, … Read more

MACDONALD: I Asked Grokipedia About Wikipedia

Elon Musk’s xAI continues to generate things for the world to wade around in. The latest is Grokipedia. Musk’s answer to Wikipedia, but driven, not by humans.

WARNER: AI = Artificial Integrity and A Massive Cost to Consumers

The steady march of technology has brought with it many blessings, from railroads to pocket calculators to pacemakers and solar-powered home heating systems.  However, the adherents of the scientific revolution assume the inevitability of humanity needing to acquire artificial intelligence as if actual intelligence requires supplementation.  Even the innovators of this technology, such as Elon … Read more

Grok AI created stargate and dna (should be rna)

AI, mRNA, Cancer Vaccines, and “Stargate”

Yes, I know that is actually Grok drawing an assembled DNA strand and a “Stargate.” I tried and tried, but Grok just could not understand what mRNA structure looks like, and does not know the difference between DNA and mRNA. Which tells you something about “Artificial Intelligence.” The image below is closer to the structure … Read more

What Will AI Mean for Freedom and Government?

“At least when there’s an evil dictator, that human is going to die. But for an AI, there would be no death. It would live forever.

Serena Butler was right about AI

AI and robotics are growing by leaps and bounds.  We’re certainly seeing it permeate marketplaces, take jobs, and become ever-more dominant in today’s thinking.  For example, even before Bill Bates-of-Hell and his statements about using AI to combat “misinformation”… Report: Google’s AI Programed to be Anti-American – The Lid (lidblog.com) Another take on this: Google … Read more

What Do Evil A.I. and Members of Congress Have in Common?

Whenever anyone talks about Artificial Intelligence, even the least capable pop-culture dullard will conjure an image of Skynet from the Terminator series – or something similar. Joshua from War Games, perhaps. None of this stops anyone from trying (we’re an arrogant lot), including Google’s Anthropic, which created an evil AI.

It Ain’t AI if it Don’t Learn.

You read that right: you can’t call it Artificial Intelligence if it doesn’t fully imitate Human Intelligence. I used to teach this stuff at a local college in their 400-level computer science curriculum. The book was Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach, by Stuart Russell and Peter Norvig. It’s considered the book to teach first-level concepts … Read more
