If you have not seen it, check out the AI videos at the link below from Microsoft.

They use a single still image from a real person to make a realistic animation.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/vasa-1/

99% of people would ever guess these videos are AI. And this technology will be used for evil purposes.

They will name it Colossus and Forbes will report on it.

Friends at Microsoft got no pay raise this year (a functional pay cut, under Bidenflation) to fund this AI supercomputer.

They’re pissed.

Tear down a dam.

Plug in a Supercomputer.

What could possibly go wrong?

We build multiple hay barns so that if one goes all the supply doesn’t go at once. It is a very old idea but probably still a good one. But what do us old guys know?

That advanced AI they are planning to build is a very serious problem. I know that a lot a people are not yet up to speed on what has happened recently in the field, (even a lot of computer experts are not) but it is just like what happened in 1939-1945 with the atomic bomb. Before that it was all science fiction, and after 1945, it was suddenly real. The future is here, and it is all going to get very strange very fast.

I just got back from San Francisco last night from protesting at OpenAI. What they are working on now is called “AGI” or “Artificial General Intelligence.” They are intent on building an AI model that is fully equal to the best human in EVERY domain. Not just chess (happened quite a while ago already) but in every single area of human endeavor. If you think this is crazy, you are one of the many, many people who are behind the curve on this. We live in the post 1945 world were atomic energy is real. AI is now reality, and now AGI is coming in a few years. AGI is to the atomic bomb what the atomic bomb was to TNT. It is vastly more powerful, and it is almost here. What OpenAI and Microsoft and others are doing is extremely dangerous, most likely beyond what you would believe right now. But just like in 1945, suddenly, everything has changed forever. Wish it wasn’t so, but it is.

Seemingly little about the project has been decided, according to the Information

The only thing known for sure is that it won't be running on MS-Windows
