Sure, adding Greenland would be nice. So would annexing Canada and the Panama Canal. But the future won’t be determined by physical stuff. It’s not about the hardware.
Instead, civilizations will rise and fall on software.
Greenland still matters because its rare earth resources are necessary to build the infrastructure that Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems rely on. We haven’t solved all the “physical science” problems that spike costs and trigger inefficiencies. After all, the technology itself is still in its infancy.
But at this point, it’s mostly a software problem.
According to OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, the brainpower of AI systems should continue to improve; the technology seems to be scalable. It’s a big part of the reason why 2025 promises to be a landmark year in AI. In Altman’s words:
We are now confident we know how to build AGI [artificial general intelligence] as we have traditionally understood it. We believe that, in 2025, we may see the first AI agents “join the workforce” and materially change the output of companies. We continue to believe that iteratively putting great tools in the hands of people leads to great, broadly-distributed outcomes.
We are beginning to turn our aim beyond that, to superintelligence in the true sense of the word. We love our current products, but we are here for the glorious future. With superintelligence, we can do anything else. Superintelligent tools could massively accelerate scientific discovery and innovation well beyond what we are capable of doing on our own, and in turn massively increase abundance and prosperity.
This sounds like science fiction right now, and somewhat crazy to even talk about it. That’s alright—we’ve been there before and we’re OK with being there again.

whichever side controls AI and the drones, will eventually rule the world when human soldiers are no longer needed to maintain power.
Control of strategic terrain is still going to matter. Doesn’t do you any good to have a super massive AI if the locations you put them in are occupied by an unfriendly force or droned to oblivion

AGI is what will eventually become Skynet.
“AGI is what will eventually become Skynet.”
Some of us have “My Starkey”, now, with our Starwars hearing devices.
This needs to be denounced. It is absolute insanity and will enslave every aspect of your lives down to what you are allowed to eat and drink. Anyone who cannot see through this is an absolute fool.
Newsmax just had the weird walking fella in a clip talking about how AI is going ot ‘monitor everyone’ and was gleeful about how people will then be ‘on the best behavior’
I’ll see if i can find the video
YUP! Dude on tv who is investing i n the stargate was absolutely giddy about controlling how people behave- I said when Pres Trump announced it, Stargate i mean, that he was backing an evil evil thing- and didn’t trust any of the 3 who stood with him during the announcement-
I can’t get the video from newsmax, but it was creepy- Even Elon is agaisnt htis- though i think he wants to be the one to usher in AI
Here is an article on it
He said that awhile ago- but even his speech with Pres Trump verged on that total control mantra- and he tried couching it in language such as ‘it will be great for the world, as we can quickly create mRNA vaccines in a matter of hours, and doctors can have access to our records immediately- etc etc-
funny how power drunk oligarchs are always doing htigs that are supposedly ‘good for everyone else’ but themselves!
I’m familiar and supporting this is pure insanity Bob. And don’t listen to what Elon claims. He is all in with this no matter what he says. He just wants someone else to get the blame for it while he cashes in too. He already set up the satellite net for them to utilize... And he is working on liking human brains to computers.
Yeah... He is all in...
What is “My Starkey?”
Does it have something to do with The Beatles?
Or is it more like Star Key....
What is “My Starkey?”
Starkey:
Designed with the input of hearing aid wearers:
My Starkey pairs with Edge AI and Genesis AI hearing aids to help you enjoy greater listening moments, improved well-being, and easier everyday living — all from the palm of your hand or wrist with all new Apple Watch compatibility.
LEGAL PERSONHOOD:
“It would shift the legal system from viewing nature as a resource to be exploited to recognizing it as having its own rights and value.
It could help communities protect natural resources by giving them the ability to sue.
It could also help with climate action. “
