What I can tell you is that I learned much more from that program than I ever could have learned by reading the book... Listening to the question and answer discussion was fascinating and very informative.
The author is one of the most knowledgeable writers about her subject that I've ever heard. In other words, "she knows what she's talking about!" And it was both informative and a support about what I had already learned from other sources. Check earlier info if you need to...
You'll need to listen carefully to at least the first two videos which were what was shown yesterday. She refers to a man in her subtitle. You will see that man with Trump in a special session. All I could think of was my first concern when Musk was given keys to the Treasury and then moved on from there... By now, it is "possible" that all of OUR country's data is now available for this, in my opinion, monster activity... We could be the test datadump for the government AI system! By the way, speaking from experience, I can guarantee that it will take years with VERY knowledgable people to move forward in AI... Our present government officials are not that group... Upon taking office in the second term, Trump deleted the only government's computer systems department. And then brought in Musk and his open door, smash everything, get all information, delete programs...you know, you lived through it too! All without any Congressional approval or oversight...
I want to alert you to listen carefully at one specific point, where the author was interviewing somebody working on AI and how he was so excited... Then Hao asks the question that the majority of Americans want to know... How is this going to affect the middle and poorer workers of the nation? It was "almost" comical because he starts sputtering, trying to think how to ask an question that he has obviously never ever considered!
And that's where we are, isn't it? All of these giant corporation leaders across America have become more and more a part of a major conspiracy and competition as to who is on TOP, or which company can get AI running faster... regardless of what messes they put Americans through in working on this concurrently!
Another issue you need to pick up on is the amount of power and water (which I had never thought of) that it would take to run this much data in multiple installations. They have already moved across the waters to establish sites in the middle east... Consider this, if Google is in the competition, which it is, and you routinely do a google search which brings up thousands of pieces of data, just consider how much more would be placed into computers that provided AI utilization. For instance, say my bank is located across the nation with their own sets of confidential data. However, they use an AI platform upon which we can get our data... Have I mentioned that I couldn't get online for about a month to see/use my account!? So, I then discovered that, by going to a newer bank, they got me in because their equipment was more sophisticated. Yes, you understood me right... From one side of town to another, the newer bank had processes that weren't available at the bank across town at which I'd been banking for about 20 years... Now take that a step further... We now have the giants--Google, Meta and more, just in America, in the fight for top dog...using power and water to test, build, test, build, implement. You get the idea... We are already being forced to pay big bucks for cell phone service... Imagine what would happen to our daily lives if we have less power and water for our personal needs, while big tech cares nothing about its users and proceed on that big race to top dog... Imagine no water for fighting fires... Imagine no power for air conditioning, a basic need for most locations in America... and so much more...
I'm not saying that we should not move forward... What I am saying is that greater minds which includes a broader perspective than we now see in our government is needed before using the $ sign as the only judgment that is used in proceeding as a race, rather than a nation-wide systems analysis of needs and assessments of the impacts of these plans! AND, a world-wide agreement as to when AI CAN BE fully implemented based upon when a cross-pedagogical set of experts has provided necessary AND required feedback!
I have included several videos that spotlight specific points. I have not listened to them before I post today, in order to get this out. So, you may find duplication if you decide to listen to all of them. Which isn't a bad idea if you are concerned enough to try to gain sufficient information about AI to develop your own thoughts and concerns about Artificial Intelligence... There are even more videos available on YouTube...
