Random Thoughts or Whatever

So, I immediately visualized a pipe of some length. Energy pours in one side and they call it black. It obviously pours out the other end and they call it white. WOW - that's a lot of science there! :cool:
That's the space-time wormhole theory!

The Black Hole absorbs all energy and information. The White Hole spews out the same.

One theory has big Black Holes becoming tiny White Holes after all the 2D surface information (Hawking radiation) evaporates.

All very cosmic! With mind-blowing math, to boot!

And a lot of folks were more recently concerned about the US` nation power grid capacity being stressed/overwhelmed by all in influx of electric cars charging requirements !
Got to feed & water cool the power hungry computational A.I. needs !

My pathetic existence doesn`t need/desire A.I. in any form !

Me too. I prefer the real McCoy.
 
Unfortunately, this AI stuff is not a choice. You get it, whether you like it or not.

The newly amended phrase: "Death, taxes, and AI."

:(

I'll make this prediction regarding AI:

At the BIG END of the idea - which is replacing all the jobs - this will totally and completely flop. Companies are not lining up for this other than some obvious areas like call centers, which are all in India/Pakistan already. SImple "global phone service" from 30 years ago ruined that employment opportunity in the USA.

The G________T will massively deploy AI for surveilling you and me. That's already in place, and will never, ever be undone, or unwound.

Most of the AI Labs will totally fail as companies and be gone before 2030 arrives. The debt financing will cave it, a huge tech stock bubble will blow them to dust.

But AI will be a permanent fixture with browsers and it will wildly INCREASE the utility of the home PC. It will answer billions of "How do I.......?" inquiries, and will help people accomplish many tasks that they dared not tackle in the past. It will also be a better TEACHER than whatever we have now in "schools." It is already really good at this function.

It will be used to invent innumerable new molecules for industrial chemistry and medicine. Most of them will be bad for humans, but a few might turn out to be useful.
Most AIs will be a hell of a lot smarter than your human doctor, and doctors will absolutely use AI to verify and check their diagnosis and recommended treatments. e.g. it will reduce medical errors. Don't forget, even the person that was "last in the class" is called "Doctor."

It might even help Boeing build working airplanes..........if they let it.

Everyone will have access to much better "finance and stock picking software."

It will make the old "Hey Siri....." seem ridiculously stupid and useless.

People who really use PCs a lot will probably subscribe to premium AI services for $10 or $20 a month right along with their Netflix and Spotify subscriptions.

Well, as of now, even if a Grandmaster chess player plays Stockfish AI at max strength, the best he or she can hope for is a stalemate.

I believe Stockfish's Elo rating is over 3500. The best human is around 2800. A huge difference.

FWIW, Curiously, did anyone who uses Microslops Win 11 OS`s EDGE browser noticed recently, like around a month or so back, that they removed the CoPilot icon from EDGE browser`s search bar and put back their originally default Bing search engine`s icon ?

I don`t know for a fact, of course, but I suspect Microslop decided to respond to the massive negative outcry push back complaining that I read online from EDGE users after MS pushed CoPilot/A.I. default only search based engine off on EDGE browser users.

While, CoPilot still exists, at least EDGE users are now given, (or led to believe !) a choice to use or not use CoPilot based search, and reject any CoPilot/A.I. based result returns that are now indicated.

I use maxed out privacy/security settings EDGE brwser for some online desires, and tweaked D.D.G. for other, with several other highly rated third party browsers available on this Win 11 Pro, local account only, laptop, that I`ve yet felt the need to explore/futz with.

I uninstall copilot and edge using absolute uninstalled, they do get reinstalled but I just uninstall them as soon as they show back up.
 
I was reading about the Multiverse Theory last night (I had insomnia ;)). Cosmic, to say the least...

Say multiple universes all started with their own Big Bang at various times. "Living" within their own "bubbles."

According to Big Al's theory of relativity, these bubbles can collide and leave dents in each other, but cannot transfer information — or "paint," in the car collision analogy — to each other.

So... Once our universe expands to its death (due to dark energy), it's all over. There is no going to another universe.

Just thought I'd let you know, in case you were worried about this.

That's one take on it built from other takes on it. Another take is no one knows, that's why nothing of substance is ever answered, no body knows.

Well, according to Einstein's theory of relativity, there can be no information transfer. The math is super daunting. Check Alan Guth's work.

I was kinda surprised, too. It's an event horizon thing, extrapolating from Bekenstein-Hawking's laws. Just like the event horizon in a black hole. No information can be transferred, even though other evidence of interactions is possible (the dent). The surface of each "bubble" is an event horizon.

Anyhow, this theory and the singularity theories are crazy. They keep supercomputers humming all night long.
