<p>Welcome to the Singularity! <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>How do we even measure the derivatives of the change in
multiple/compounded domains (like computational
hardware/software/applications crossed with terrestrial/air/space
transportation which can be decomposed into yet other critical
technologies (power management, sensors, navigation, control
systems)?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The current impact of "supply chain failures" seems to open the
door to another layer of logistics ML/AI which seems like a
critical stepwise move toward global scale AI that transcends any
human/corporate/national oversight and takes on a "life of it's
own".</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I haven't tracked Musk's analysis/critique of AI lately but as
the biggest target (squashable bug) for a global-scale emergent
AI, he would seem to be an obvious individual human/company victim
of an AI "leveraging" him out of the picture or into the biggest
tool in the box? By some measure it seems he already is? I can't
tell if his ego allows him to recognize this or if it requires it
of him? Trying to squirt himself across space to Mars before it
catches up with him? How DO you close that door behind you well
enough to keep HAL from following you (stowaway)?<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I think plenty of people (e.g. Gil's Gamers, MAGA-heads, the
non/working poor, Millenials, etc) are already being ground up by
"the system" which is just getting bigger/faster/smarter. I
don't mean to project consciousness onto this amoeba-like emergent
Leviathan (Hobbes), just a higher-order of organization as alluded
to in the OOE/ALife work like this:</p>

<p>I think all of this entertwines/weaves with a couple of our other
threads here... I can barely keep up with reading (often skimming)
most of them, much less having deeper thoughts about them much
less doing significant analysis (re EricS acknowledgement) of any
of it.<br>

It is unbelievable to me the resources Tesla is expending on
machine learning and automatic driving. They've transcended
GPUs (12,000 wasn't enough) and are designing their own chips
for custom supercomputers now.</div>

<div>TLDR: GPU's get used in a lot of places. I didn't know
tesla used them for tensor processing. Or they needed tensor
flow processing at all. Would that be for the self driving
mode? Anyway: a big kvech in gaming cercles: no parts to get
even
<i>needed </i>part replacements since a lot is in the
hands of crypto minners, or just available. I'll give this a
bit of a bullwhip rating.
