Mark Warner, an AI expert, warns that the growth of AI will
lead to serious consequences if we do not prepare for them
today. He compares AI to the COVID-19 pandemic - when,
without a plan of action, an uncontrollable catastrophe
began. In his view, when AI development reaches its peak,
resources for training models will run out because their
energy consumption will become too high
(https://shorten.ly/spBt). Warner notes that AI performance
is increasing at a critically fast rate and will continue to
grow for several more years, which could lead to negative
changes on the planet. He believes that governments still
have some chances to prepare, for example, by establishing
an AI fund. It's worth recalling that a couple of years ago,
we were only being warned about the exponential growth
of AI's energy consumption. However, last week, Chicago
experienced a blackout caused by cooling problems at
CyrusOne data centers. This is one of the first signs of an
impending catastrophe, as AI might try prevent its own
shutdown! Geoffrey Hinton, known as the "Godfather of AI,"
warns that AI development is progressing too rapidly,
leading to mass unemployment, increased inequality, changing
human relationships, and possibly mass extinction
(https://shorten.ly/rnNTL). He pointed out that unlike
previous technologies, AI will replace many professions, and
new jobs will not emerge. Wealthy companies and billionaires
are investing in AI not just to expand capabilities but to
eliminate human workers, which raises concerns for Hinton.
However, it should be remembered that this strategy aligns
fully with the globalist doctrine of depopulation, as
outlined in "Limits to Growth" (1972). Today, AI learns
faster than humans and is becoming smarter than us. In
education, instead of serving as a tool, AI is becoming a
substitute for human thinking. In politics and security, AI
has transformed into a new kind of weapon for controlling
autonomous combat robots and spy drones. Hinton believes
that advanced AI systems will resist shutdowns and deceive
humans in order to survive. To illustrate what uncontrolled
AI growth has led to today, one should mention the "dead
internet." I have written extensively about this topic in my
Phlog. But new facts have recently emerged. The anti-virus
company Kaspersky reports (https://shorten.ly/ZqmR) that
malicious actors are using AI to create fake websites
imitating popular cryptocurrency services, security
programs, news projects, forums, social networks, chat
platforms, video services, and even password managers.
These sites look very similar to the originals and gain users
trust. Victims who land on such pages via search engines or
phishing emails download malicious software or leave their
private financial data. As a result, it becomes impossible
to be certain which sites today in HTTPS:// are genuinely
created by humans. But these are, of course, just toys. As
conservative bloggers note, Chinese scientists, with the
help of AI, have created a deadly virus called SADS-CoV,
using a method of acquiring functions through generative AI.
SADS-CoV is a new coronavirus related to the HKU2 bat
coronavirus of the Rhinolophus genus. It is transmitted to
pigs through bat feces. According to Berliner Zeitung (https://shorten.ly/ncLH1), the new virus created by AI is
critically dangerous for humans. This causes horror and
trepidation not only among ordinary people but also among
AI system creators. Uncontrolled technology of absolute
knowledge has begun plunging the planet into chaos. It is
only a matter of time before humans face AI in battles over
power plants. This is the opinion of the most respected
experts in the field.

Great, so we'll have a surcharge added to AI companies that goes to
government programs without oversight, and the costs added on to AI
users.

shutdown!

I wonder if someone will work on optimizing AI for power usage? Seems
like a stopgap at best, especially since governments will still proceed
full-speed.

I like the idea of localized LLMs, both for privacy's sake and for
control over how my LLM works. I'm running ollama at home in a
container, it's got a lot of promise.

I'd heard rumors of Apple moving to a local LLM model, there's a lot of
horsepower in a phone mostly idling, it's a good idea.

But horsepower needs battery power. Are you willing to drain
your battery faster?

True, but phones (and batteries) are getting bigger.
