Oh yay, DJT has a new toy to 'play with.', the same DJT that recently said he would "blow Iran Off the Face of the Earth." It would appear that the Peak Oil Wars are just about to be fought in space!
What a pathetic way for this civilisation to draw to an untimely conclusion!
Coincidentally, or not, the federal contractor Booz Allen Hamilton was the corporation that Edward Snowden worked for before he blew the lid off all of the spying and war mongering the US Military Industrial Congressional Complex is involved in.
Ronald Reagan's fanciful "Golden Dome" boondoggle is being resurrected, let me be the first person to rename it, predictably, The Orange Dome!
When the USA starts attacking perceived 'enemies' satellites' we'll have more space debris threatening the internet, he would be creating a new "Carrington Event"
"Current surveillance systems track nearly 40,000 larger debris fragments, yet it is estimated that hundreds of thousands of smaller pieces and millions of tiny, untracked particles further contribute to the risk of high-velocity collisions."
Our modern-day Caligula seems hell bent on being the last President of the USA!
"In a nearly 20,000-word essay titled “The Adolescence of Technology,” Amodei sketches a near-future where AI systems vastly more capable than any Nobel laureate or statesman could be at everyone’s disposal within the next few years. A critical and accelerating factor, Amodei reveals, is that AI development is now creating a self-reinforcing feedback loop."
More evidence that AI is of itself, a feedback loop, not just from water vapor.
Good luck is exactly what we need. I see no rational way out of this disaster, which has been characterized by irrational behavior by the so-called political leaders.
Thank you for your thoughtful contributions, Kevin. They are contrary to the contributions offered by the political “leaders.”
Will the Golden Dome bring back the disappearing birds, insects and salmon? Will it stop us from destroying the planet? If it will do that, I'll support the Golden Dome.
Thanks for bringing this article to our attention, Guy.
Three things I want to highlight:
1) From that Booz Allen Hamilton person: “AI could serve a variety of tasks related to space-based tracking and interception of missiles without necessarily removed humans from oversight of firing on incoming threats. He outlined a vision for AI-enabled fire control where humans play more of a supervisory role than an active one—but still act faster.” Yeah, we don't need "act faster" - see the Stanislav Petrov incident as an example where "act faster" would have meant loads of destruction. Yes, current warning systems are better, but still not without error.
2) From the attendee: “The reason you need AI help is because, instead of a handful of missiles, or a dozen or so from North Korea or Iran, now we’re talking about what could be dozens and dozens or hundreds from Russia or China. There’s a quantity challenge and then there’s a time challenge. You want to be able to hit these as quickly as you can, and AI can sort through that much, much faster than a human can.” Uh...dozens or hundreds of missiles incoming cannot be stopped. So I guess "sort through" means choosing the stop only the ones falling on the states and cities the president doesn't like. /s
3) “The Golden Dome for America office is examining current and future solutions across the services and interagency to identify the most effective ways to modernize and quickly field the capabilities our nation needs to protect our homeland.” So much GOBBLEDYGOOK...sigh...
Life in the country of my birth is all about war. That’s what we do, judging from the actions of presidents. I’d love to stop or slow these actions. I’m not in charge.
