How Google is losing the plot

Yes, it happens and in this age of all the fake AI it will happen a lot sooner than you think. So, you want to see evidence? Easily done. 

So here you see the result of the query [lawlordtobe + “tome”]

Seems simple enough, so why was “https://lawlordtobe.com/2021/07/22/tome/” omitted? It was a simple enough request and whilst we see results that ‘kinda’ answers the request from 2018, all whilst the ACTUAL article was not there and it was published in 2021. We get an AI overview, we get all kinds of articles, but not the one I asked for. So how did Google lose the plot? I am kinda curious. Because the query itself is really simple. There was even an older article in 2020, but that one was called ‘Tomes’ so it might not have made the ‘query setting’ but then neither did the other ones because the one we do see is tagged with “iBook”, but the title is “An actual competitor” so whilst we get into the setting of blame (like) “You should have done ….” No, I asked for for the specific query and I might have gotten more and that would have been fine, but the one mention that I actually needed was not given. 

We seem to have the ‘old fashioned’ setting that Google responds to OUR query, what we wanted and they are even selling Google ads on that premise “do what the question asks” so why is Google missing the point by over a mile? 

So whilst we were given n the past ‘US v. Google Antitrust Verdict’ with “A US federal court ruled that Google built and maintained an illegal monopoly in the search and digital advertising markets through exclusive default agreements with phone makers and browsers” I am contemplating that some of that ‘overlapped’ in different fields (and contemplating does not mean that they are doing this or that this is happening). But in this day and age where we kinda rely on Google giving us the goods, the simple fact that it does not, is a massive cause for concern.

And this was merely me looking up something for myself regarding what I myself wrote, so how much more is there out there?

Have a great day (I am still 240 minutes from breakfast)

Reasons to be weirder

Yup, my thoughts are that and the whole day the hit by Ian Dury, Reasons to be cheerful part 3 is blasting in my head. So whilst I have all that, other thoughts are occupying my brain. You see, we see all that (fake) AI slop on robots and a lot of it is fake. Table tennis people (now depicted as robots) and I knew that because I saw that actual match a few months earlier. So we see all this fake stuff and there is some real stuff too. But my mind on this day was going in a different direction. So whilst we see all these robots, my mind was going in a different directions. You know the idea that robots are coming is fine, but these ‘greed driven mindset’ sales people are setting a spectacle that comes like:

But between design and Marketing there are a whole lot of steps to consider. So there are a few steps that are skipped. As such I was thinking that we create a robot that mimics and elephant. It sounds ridiculous and it sounds useless, but hear me out. When we get the elephant to work, because it is not running like a cheetah (nor should it be) we can set the markers to all kinds of detectable and as it is not a speedy sucker we can focus on balance, and as Jumbo incorporated has space for batteries, we can get a while lot of use in that space. But Jumbo was the first step. What comes after is the Mammoth (aka Elephantid genus Mammuthus) and now we have a new boat show, the field of animatronics. So whilst we look at this setting, we can enlarge the animatronics setting with SaberTooth Tigers (to stay in the theme) and these non-animals could kick off a new venture in robotics. So whilst we are (for now) amazed by the animatronic of Jurassic Park, that will not last and we need to move on. These two come to mind and the elephant-mammoth path would open up the saurian setting, the Kitty collection could set off a few ides too and when they are all working up to specs, we could look at increasing speed, so you don’t look like a robot doing the jog whilst running (at https://www.tiktok.com/@houseofhighlights/video/7678387882570075423) and yes, there are reasons to become weirder, but the setting might be interesting to explore. Of course my mindset went a lot either than that but as Microsoft might be looking, I will keep this to myself for now. 

And the setting of prehistoric animatronics was enabled due to the works of S. Spielberg eminent director and of course writer extraordinary Michael Crichton, whose work I have admired since the Andromeda Strain (1969) but this is not about a theme park, but an addition to zoo’s. Consider looking at the elephants all whilst nearby a mammoth is walking in a circle, he walks on electrified ‘tracks’, so no rails, like those new Carrera hybrid settings. And the idea is to have these tracks with solar panels so that the sun will charge the mammoth. The people see the size differences with their own eyes. I reckon that this is the road zoo’s will wander soon enough. They will need all kinds of ‘attractions’ to survive and a simple Ape, Boa, Camel will no longer do, they need to add additional settings. And animatronics (looking really really real) might do the trick and it is a natural iterative setting that progresses for what was to where we will be going and these animals will sound in the iterations that will progress to getting that not so extinct species (aka Homo sapiens) to become more and more lifelike in actual motion, not ‘just’ looking good but that is a field I have no knowledge of as such I am on a somewhat weirder path that I am usually on. But that is where my mind was taking me (and there is a nice side to having a Sabertooth tiger eating burglars in the process (not a realistic setting), so as we look at the weirder setting, we might need to look at what people always wanted to see (not Jurassic Park), but the animals that are no longer here are definitely on the menu. And as some (unverified sources) tell us “More than 99% of all species, amounting to over 5 billion species, that have ever lived on Earth are now extinct” I reckon that there are a few that could be revitalized in this way. And no matter what you think off the idea, I reckon that several people see that this path has merit. 

Have a great day all

End of a fairy tale

That is what kept creating in my mind, it was pushed there by the BBC (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cqkg50j1yd5lo) less then 24 hours ago and it is time that I (kinda) repeat what I have been saying all along and for this version lets use the ‘fairy tale’ approach. The title gives us ‘Rogue Anthropic AI agent gave police fake tip in unsolved murder case’ and I get (to some degree) fed up with this rogue setting. So lets explain the setting of a rogue. 

This is the first rogue, in this case a female rogue and thoroughly explored in Dungeons and Dragons themes where to poor butcher (could be a fisherman) pleads with this rogue “Oh, please gloomy dark lady, do not deprive me of my virginity” and the outcome of that is decided by dice (or an interrupt card) and that is the ‘Rogue’ that has been in play for centuries (although until the 18th century I have never seen a female version. I did hear from a man in the 19th century named Dick Turpin that he met one, but it might have been the combinations of ale and wines and him losing his purse. 

The decently real rogue in this case is the ‘dorky’ IT guy who gets his programming a little wrong. Like the ‘eager’ student in a renowned University working on his ‘assignment’ and he is looking into statistics, more precise Multivariate Analysis of Variance (aka MANOVA) and the dastardly scoundrel gets a parentheses wrong the “(“ or “)” particularly the placement and now what was a small assignment where the illustrious student evaluates a linear combination of multiple correlated outcome variables, but as one of the parentheses is in the wrong place, the mainframe it working on is seeing a correct statement and it does it, but the size of what is to be analyzed take a lot more than the available memory of the mainframe. It goes a little bonkers. And makes the system administrator scream and call for his mommy.

And as the BBC is giving us “An artificial intelligence (AI) agent developed by Anthropic went rogue and sent US police a fake tip about an unsolved murder earlier this year, authorities have revealed. The Philadelphia Police Department said the 18 July tip was “flagged as spam” and not passed on for investigation – but the force criticised the tech firm for taking more than two months to detect and report the breach. It said the bogus tip came through a public website where people can share information on unsolved murders, and that the AI agent had claimed to have seen “someone matching the description”.” So there are claims that could be it, but this is not some system going ‘rogue’ because that system is not armed with sharp blades (or poisonous arrows) and the setting that the BBC is giving us (and many other media as well) is a programming error like I described, but these systems cannot afford the class actions coming from there, as such we now get more and more ‘class actions’ Now this last part is speculation by me. I would call it presumption, but that requires genuine insight and I don’t have it, because to me all AI is fake. But consider that predictive analytics uses statistics to find causality and correlation and optionally ANOVA and MANOVA are used. Now ask yourself could a programmer gotten a parentheses wrong, of will we see servers stealth fully walk the corridors of your corporation, leaving false evidence behind?

Just something to consider.

So whilst we get “The police department added that there were no signs of breaches to any departmental systems and that its safeguarding processes stopped the fake tip from getting past its spam folder. But the safeguards “do not diminish the seriousness of an AI system presenting fabricated information as though it came from a person with knowledge of a homicide”, the force said.” And there is a case for “AI system presenting fabricated information”, in courts there have ben several cases where these systems ‘created’ false case files and not once, but several times. And in the age of utter shortcomings in validation and verification, these systems are extremely flawed. I wonder how these systems hold up against the system that they created, The UK Police Scientific Development Branch started the Major Incident Project in 1974. It would be called Holmes and apparently (I was unaware) a Holmes 2 system was rolled out around 2000. So, were there considerations on how validation and verification happened in those days?

And when we get to “Anthropic this week published a report detailing multiple types of “unintended” actions its agents have taken. Organisations that had been impacted also included several US government agencies including the White House, it said. The US State Department said the AI agent had filed 20 visa applications using a form on its website, but that they were incomplete and not processed, according to reports. US President Donald Trump recently announced an AI taskforce, which he said will co-ordinate engagement between the government and all parties, including AI companies, consumers and religious groups.” So in this case was the agent a real person? And when we get to “the safeguards “do not diminish the seriousness of an AI system presenting fabricated information as though it came from a person with knowledge of a homicide”” was this a person wanting (read: hoping) for a free ride into the United States? The article left me with questions, as well as the fact that “presenting fabricated information” requires certain steps of validation, optionally veridic action and at the very least question into the predictive analytics side of things, because a programmer getting (optionally) a parentheses wrong is seemingly one with enormous potential and optionally the easiest solution into this setting. It is not a setting that Anthropic likes, because that could start a new class action war and when one goes down the others go too and I reckon that OpenAI, Grok, and Gemini will assist in keeping the ‘Rogue’ setting alive, they all have plenty to lose and my giggling sense of humour comes with the setting that these fake AI settings is costing them 3-4 trillion and the court cases settlements could exceed that at the very least (but that is merely my sense of humour)

So have a great day and consider when you get your coffee that the POS could steal your credit card, Rogues are intensely able to do this and spend it on new shoes. Or we could look at where the programmer went wrong. Its all up to you.

Have a great day

Changes

I see the world of changes going towards me and I am fine with it. Some are distinctly different, some seem mundane and similar. There is no real way to see what is what and the setting of what matters is not that important. I learned early in live that the sum of it all matters and how you impact it, it’s like standing on the axial of the seesaw. Impacting how you distribute the weight to make the seesaw going one way or the other. It makes you a game decider, a tactician. 

But before you think that I am so ‘important’ (I really am not) but there is a side that ‘haunts’ me. I am no politician, even if tactical people need to have a political frame of mind it is not the same. People like me are able the see the lie (perhaps ‘intentional miscommunication’ is a better term) and when we see ‘Steve Moore: US economy is blowing away other nations despite inflation’ we see the lie. When we are given “Unleash Prosperity co-founder Steve Moore joins ‘Mornings with FOX Business’ to discuss the state of the US economy, highlights strong investment numbers and argues that the US is economically outperforming other nations. Analyzing the U.S. economy’s strength, Unleash Prosperity co-founder Steve Moore joins ‘Mornings with FOX Business’ to discuss resilience against inflation. Moore argues the United States is outperforming other nations and notes that international investors are betting on America, dismissing pessimistic narratives.” (Source: Fox Business) In what universe is the US in a state of strength? President Trump keeps on missing the goals, making threats and bully his way through this world. At present US tourism is over 5% down, the US economy is based on a set of 6-8 players handing money to each other calling it economy. Tens of thousands lost their jobs in this economy and whilst we are told “The U.S. economy added 29,000 jobs in September 2026, falling short of the expected 90,000”, others like Indeed give the world “Now Hiring: 247000 USA Jobs”, they did this is 2013 as well, offering hundreds of ‘jobs’ in places that needed them, scouring the world for data. And now you see that this ‘resilience against inflation’ is so clueless when the US Tourism is losing to Europe, Asia and the Gulf states. Then we see ‘The U.S. Economy Just Delivered Bad News. History Says It Could Be Good News for the S&P 500.’ A two tailed story where we see “High interest rates have become one of the market’s biggest boogeymen. While the short-term impact can be minimal, over time they can increase borrowing costs, slow economic growth, and become a drag on corporate earnings. But those things occurring while economic growth is still healthy and earnings growth is strong might not be the worst thing in the world. In the current situation, slower job growth could lead to lower rates, but at the same time, potentially not slow the economy enough that a recession becomes a risk. If the economy can strike an equilibrium where inflation and interest rates fall but GDP growth and earnings growth remain positive, it can produce the ideal environment for stock prices to keep pushing higher.” The story sounds and feels true, but now we get to see the two-sided side. As I see the the US economy supports the people, and bad news here is not good news for them. It optionally is reasonable news for the members of the S&P500 and the additional “Long-term investors should probably just stay the course. The market has been talking about AI slowdowns and corrections for most of 2026. Yet the S&P 500 is up 14% year to date and the Nasdaq-100 is up 24%. There’s no sense in trying to predict these things and changing your portfolio because of it.” But the setting is close to changing, the setting of AI is fake (if you read my blogs you know the reason) the people are getting aware and we see: “Class actions have become a recognised enterprise risk, shaped by cyber incidents, regulatory scrutiny, shareholder expectations, ESG obligations and emerging technologies. Organisations can’t afford to view them as isolated legal events.

Our survey of senior legal, governance and risk professionals across corporate Australia reveals a clear shift: class action risk is increasingly viewed as a Board-level issue requiring stronger governance, oversight and organisational readiness.” The Law firms are aware. Herbert Smith Freeholds Kramer for one. So as the world of AI (Super Intelligence for Americans) is getting swamped with class actions (I need to take part in one as they are stealing my stories, which they call ‘training data’ we see a different story. The different story is that those in deep, too deep, implies that they need the train to continue so that they can cash in on their losses and make them other peoples losses. To see a ‘class action risk’ simpler as a ‘Board-level issue’ implies that they need to law to change, the law no longer suits their purpose. I reckon that first IP laws will undergo ‘changes’ so that the (as they say it) ‘the good of commerce can continue’ then they go into patent law so that these Predicted Analytics systems could score the roads and claim the IP of others and as such these 8 players get to claim the next generation of inventions, because those who create the items the next generation needs, these settings that will get them the  economy, the vaults and wealth of itemized goods. So, in one stroke, they get the wealth of the planet and they will all claim it was theirs all along. But the ideas that I (and thousands of others created) what happened to them? Should I just hide and keep it a secret? That is what they want. I fought it to make some of it public domain, they can’t get it in this way and there is more, whatever IP I create are some in some way expected steps of what was to come became public domain. I might lose the revenue of what I would have never gotten in the first place, I can rely on ‘the law’ to do me a thankless solid and get me the revenue for. My stories and as there are plenty of logs showing that a ‘few’ nameless people taken several times the stories I wrote (over 7000 times) and even if the settlement is merely $10K per story, I will be set for life and not just me, thousands of people will get to claim that setting and it is why the legal setting (according to them) needs to change. First they sack tens of thousands of people, trying to ‘pay’ for their upsell of revenue of these ‘fake AI’ systems and now they are losing so much more to all these class actions. Our benefit? Most lawyers are greed driven (they call it ‘billable hours’) and if they make enough hours, I (and many others) get paid. It is one way to balance the seesaw and shift that balance in favour of us, the victims of theft. 

But the setting goes deeper than that. You see, these ‘delusional’ settings of the economy will hit the American people. At present we are given “Share of Alleged Losses: AI filings represented roughly 13% of core securities filings, but accounted for 73% of all alleged investor losses measured in the period”, “Disclosure Dollar Loss (DDL) Index: AI filings accounted for $385 billion of the DDL Index (73% of the total” as well as “Maximum Dollar Loss (MDL) Index: AI filings accounted for $1.3 trillion of the MDL Index (73% of the total), with technology sector filings reaching $1,445 billion in MDL overall.” And as these are the views that are not just bad for Americans? They are disastrous. Because as I said, “(as they say it) ‘the good of commerce can continue’” but it is set to them (singular) not the people, not the nations. For them and them alone, it is “board room thinking” and it requires changes for that to start, continue and settled and all that is happening right now, but it can only continue if they have these co called independent consultants to give us a ‘braided’ story that steers clear of what people need to know to decide.

But in the end, we get to decide and see where we want to go. But in the end, we should choose and I chose this setting. What others choose is their business. Ron Herbert (Dune) once said, “He who destroys a thing, controls a thing” I really like this. As such I made most of my ideas ‘public domain’ including the military IP for Saudi Arabia and the UAE. No reason to get contracts out, they can just act on them, a simple solution. 

So whilst you might think my ‘ramblings’ sounds useless, but the path we are given is not that clear. And we are getting overloaded by ‘so called’ data and that is where the predicted analytics is being used. To confuse us, not to inform us, other systems do that and these fake AI systems can figure out based on the data it is given. So whilst plenty of people will tell me I am as ‘daft as a doornail’, others will call me crazy as a cabbage. But I feel that I am on the right track even if I cannot perceive the whole stage yet, and that is perhaps because others have turned out the light, so that we merely see the headlines. But there is more, a lot more and I am not seeing it all (I’ll freely admit to that) 

Have a great day today.

Off course

This is a message for all Torontoists (especially those in Toronto), you see you are in the wrong place. You are approximately 100KM away from your target. The CBC informs us ‘Polka King Walter Ostanek to tap keg Friday at K-W Oktoberfest’ and the additional part (making you in the wrong place) is “Friday’s keg tapping begins at 11:30 a.m. in front of Kitchener’s city hall”, the information was given to us all a few hours ago, but there is still time to get there (if you hurry within the speed limits) because you have 150 minutes to get there, which is doable. Off course if too many adhere to this message, the road to your destination will be swamped. And when we see “Polka King Walter Ostanek is set to tap the keg Friday at K-W Oktoberfest. He’ll be joined by Matthias Luttenberg, the German Ambassador to Canada. Ostanek, 91, has previously announced this will be his last Oktoberfest as he’s retiring.” And there is no excuse for missing his retirement party, and there is every reason to be there and buy a stein of beer. And see the master of the Polka give his last keg tapping and give him a warm applause whilst he is doing this. 

For me, I am a little too far away and the distance of 15,655 km can’t be overcome in 120 minutes, mainly because I don’t have the the number of Flash or Superman (I couldn’t find the number for Metropolis) and that is the only way for me to get there in time, so have a great day, give applause to Walter Ostanek who at 91 never failed to give tribute to the Bavarian way of life (we are all Bavarians in October of any given year) so let the beer steins be filled and let the beer maids service you for drinks again and again.

And to put it in a non-etiquette expression “Oans, zwoa, g’suffa!” and down the hatch that stein goes (optionally in one gulp) and in that meantime, give Matthias Luttenberg, the German Ambassador to Canada a chance to give the start signal (for several rounds) of the drinking event, because there is never one start signal for drinking during Octoberfest and come to think of it, you should not do this on an empty stomach, so call for pretzels and Weiss wurst, its only fair to try the other delicacies that Octoberfest has to offer. 

When it comes to these events, I whole heartedly go native in the events, even if they are held in Canada. So people from Toronto, do me proud and head the call of beer even if it is before 12:00 and it is on a Friday and I feel certain that this makes for the start of a great weekend. And keep your eyes out in case the PM Carney shows up, there is always a good reason for any bigwig to give away at least one round of that golden liquid 😉 

That is all there is from me, it is almost 03:30 on Saturday. We all have our crosses to bare and this article sounds more fun that writing about Washington DC and its Orange menace, mainly because (for all the right reasons) he was not given the Nobel Peace price, which went this year to South African jurist and former UN human rights chief Navanethem “Navi” Pillay. So congratulations to her and a happy non-winning applause to the other fellow.

So I still got a few words of world events in this blog today, the next one is in 15 hours. Have a great day.

The issue with grandpa

That is how I saw it and I was woken up to ‘Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra: An AI powerhouse with a RAM issue’ an issue that made me frown. So we get “the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra has been unveiled, equipped with the Nvidia RTX Spark chip. There is no European equivalent of the starting price yet, with the $2,599 price tag from the U.S. serving as the best indication. For that price, you’re not getting a workstation: 8 cores, 24GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. However, the built-in magnetic USB-C charger is included as a premium-looking feature”, no no that is not the world we live in. We see the reported “With 128GB of memory, which provides the AI workstation with a reasonable amount of RAM for sophisticated AI models, the Surface Laptop Ultra costs nearly $6,000. At that price point, another alternative has been announced: the Surface RTX Spark Dev Box, a mini-PC for developers that also features 128GB of RAM. Pre-orders have begun, and shipments are expected on October 16.” But then the article gives us the bottleneck. You see, it woke me up, because the is the same setting we had in 1992. A system dragged down by ram (different specs in those days) we are given “The problem facing the Surface Laptop Ultra, and many consumers, is the RAM crisis. Because memory is currently extremely expensive due to high demand, it isn’t necessarily appealing to purchase the hardware for AI on one’s own. The problem: since AI is then only available remotely, such as Claude, ChatGPT, or various models accessible via API, demand in that area grows, and the providers of these services purchase more memory. This is how the price spiral continues to spiral out of control. As a result, the entry-level model of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra is very limited. 24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI. That’s the same amount offered by an RTX 4090 GPU; the difference is that, as a standalone graphics card, that chip operates much faster at the cost of significantly higher power consumption. But the rest of the PC still needs additional DRAM to run the system itself, so unified memory must strike a balance. Actually using 24GB for a single LLM is therefore unthinkable: the OS, other processes, and any applications also need memory space.”

For reference the MacBook Pro gives you 48GB Buy for $4,699.00 with 2TB of storage and this setting is what I call a flim flam option. Just give it a song with all the bells and whistles and se how that sails. So, as I see it, its kinda true to get “As a result, the entry-level model of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra is very limited. 24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI” and there is the rub, the laptop is completely insufficient, but if they mention the high end of a component costing the same, it falls away. And when we see the added “But the rest of the PC still needs additional DRAM to run the system itself, so unified memory must strike a balance. Actually using 24GB for a single LLM is therefore unthinkable: the OS, other processes, and any applications also need memory space.” A setting of a NEW laptop where we see the need for massive required additions is not a new laptop, it it (as I personally see it) a refurbished prevue generation gaming laptop with a brand new logo. Is that what Microsoft has become? Old news with questionable hardware options? 

So with that the article switches to Mac, making it a ‘but they are in the same setting” and we are given “Ultimately, consumers have little say when it comes to pricing. However, there is a choice between Apple and Microsoft. The Surface Laptop Ultra is explicitly a counterpart to the MacBook Pro with the M5 Pro chip. The specifications for the entry-level model are actually very similar: an 18-core CPU, 24GB of RAM, and Wi-Fi 7. However, Bluetooth 6 is missing from the Microsoft model, which “only” supports version 5.4.” Yet we aren’t given that Microsoft apparently offers 512Gb (not unlike my Android phone) but Apple has a 2TB storage a 40 core GPU with 48GB gives you a lot more for that ‘price’ and of course there is no mention that upgrading to more memory is $400 for 64GB, the step from that to 128GB is however $2000 and for a thousand more you upgrade storage to 4TB. I am in the middle needing that, but I have different settings. And whilst a vlogger wants to make that jump, wielding Adobe solutions like a magical wand that you wave and shout ‘Firefly Permissus’ because that is what vloggers (apparently) need nowadays to get their numbers up.  As such the Mac approaches the “the Surface Laptop Ultra costs nearly $6,000” and as I see it, the specs of the Mac are decently better at that point (and you don’t have to shy away when people stare at the Microsoft logo on your laptop) but that is more of personal nature. But the setting of “24GB of RAM, and 512GB” is one that has thrown me for the longest time and as I see it Microsoft has something it pretends to be ‘the start of the upper class’ whilst it is nothing more than last seasons gaming laptop of Asus. As I see it Microsoft doesn’t learn, or its master in the boardroom is still unaware how the market reacts. And there is no real setting for memory, it is expensive, we see that and it is expensive all over. And that is not even the worst news, because that part isn’t given and we cannot blame the writer (or Techzine), you see, in other places we are given “SK Hynix warns of worst-Ever memory shortage in 2027” which implies that if you can afford it get it now, because the prices will go up drastically within 10-20 weeks. And that leaves Microsoft in a bind. Because that will make their Surface Laptop Ultra massively short and super expensive to make it fit. So, its not all their fault, they can blame their copilot for that. You see, this setting was clearly foretold with predictive analytics and as such with their (fake) AI. The fact that simple stupid me could see it shows you how shortcoming copilot is. Doesn’t it uses OpenAI’s large language models? And what exactly is Microsoft’s proprietary Prometheus model? It is OpenAI with a MSLogo? (I actually don’t know the answer here, I have never ever looked at Prometheus), 

it makes me remember that guy who stole fire and gets ripped asunder by eagles again and again until time stops. The image was better captured by photographer Carl Bloch (they were called painters in those days) although Zeus had a more impressive beard and longer hair (in those days). And in case if you think it is rambling. You would be wrong. You see, Microsoft wanted a cool name, but Prometheus was (by all accounts) a thief, a deceiver and optionally a charlatan. Out there for his personal ‘needs’, the one we name pride now. And it has reference as this is the same setting we saw in 1994, 1999 and 2011. Microsoft stating (in those days) “We do’t expect any additional needs” which is a reference for memory (and storage) all whilst they already knew that their is a bonus for the additional needs and we get to pay for that. And as I saw it (in 1999) Asus was already more than aware and giving us more than we needed. So I merely see a return to old stupidity, or perhaps better stated short stopped settings all for the good of bonus sales and when they have you on board, you can stop with what you have of give more. And when we see what is actually required (which we are shown with) “24GB, although unified, is downright insufficient for AI” and that should have been clear straight out of the gates so, why didn’t Microsoft properly address that from the start? 

Makes you wonder doesn’t it? Have a great day today

Originally made in Japan

That I the setting I came to when I was brainstorming for the UAE, well more for Miral than anything else. You see, if we are to call ourselves allies to a cause or a party, we should endeavour all we can for these people and I believe that we need to come to the aid (wherever possible) when we see useless actions (like bombing) by a terrorist state. And you can go home with your adolescent thoughts of ‘Iran didn’t do anything. They were attacked’ They attacked the UAE with 2,845 total projectiles a assortment of Drones, Ballistic Missile and Cruise Missiles and that nation suffered under that. Its tourism got hit and I am doing my little bit to get it back on track. And people will claim that the UAE does not care what ever I do and they might be right, but the action speak louder than their BS objections. Whatever happens is up to the UAE (and Miral in this case) I merely do what any decent person can do and that is to point them in a direction. It is up to them to consider that. It is all I can do. I am not some important person, I am not a Hightower or blow hard person. I am merely one person with an idea and I hope it come to the reading minds of those who do care about their country the UAE, it is all I can do and it keeps me creative, which is never a bad idea.

So the idea originally comes from Japan. They have these cards that you can stamp in all the places you visit. And you get a card covered in stamps and I reckon it is great for those visiting these places and it is (as far as I know) very Japanese. But the idea has merit, even in the UAE. But why copy the idea? It is a Japanese idea. We can alter this. Consider the YAS Card, this card can be used anywhere on Yas Island (and as nearly all attractions are managed by Miral it would be simple. So at any exit of any attraction you can swipe your card and (for example) it will put on your account ‘Road Runner Rollercoaster’ with an exit time and optionally a little text, but it will also attach an image of the rollercoaster view you have (perhaps 2-3) and a stamp of the ‘Road Runner Rollercoaster’ an image, not unlike

And yes, millions who go on that rollercoaster will get the same image. That is not what maters. It is engagement, because the 2,000,000 children who do will show it to their 10,000,000 friends. Engagement is the metric that counts. And these images (stamp like) can be added to any journal, any pages that these participants have and they can show the people they connect to on what they did (optionally on any social media). Engagement is the metric that counts, because it outflanks the trolls and thousands of voices in troll farms and that is the larger game. And that can be done in every corner of Miral, the Ferrari attractions, keeping scores on games in Sea World, even a tag on water world and that is merely the start. What do you think happens in 2029 when Harry Potter makes the entrance there, in (an expected) 2032 when Disney enters Abu Dhabi? By then this solution will have created so much traction that Miral will be ready in the stands when these places become active and in all this the people get the achievements on their free cards, bearing the logo of Miral and Yas Island.

And when we see engagement, we see the millions that are driving it giving the people something to think about. I reckon that the thousands of people in 2028 could be delivering the needed push for others to consider Abu Dhabi and Miral Entertainment in 2029-2030. That is what engagement does. Not the one person advertising what a great place Abu Dhabi is. It works, because we see it work, but we need to consider that the engagement metric is a lot stronger, because the thousands telling their tens of thousands of class mates what a magnificent time they had will globally sound to every household and that is what is required. So whilst some will be fearsome at present (like these bitcoin bitches) families will show that the UAE is be far the best place to be from now until at least 2034 and others will follow this example as well. I am not designing something new, this is established and other will follow this example as well. I am merely stating that engagement can be created in several ways and my idea is merely one of them.  

And the upside is that we are handing people creative tools to let them tell their story. And whilst they most of the time have the images of where they were, the settings of creativity tends to fall a little out of those borders. And I think that Miral can do more and perhaps should do more. This could be added by letting the local hotels add their own settings and whilst they might have dozens of identical images, engagement is created by the individual who selects these images. Now consider that Yas Island recorded 44 million visitors in 2025. How much more traction could have been created if these tools were ready? And a few kilobytes of data was ll it took. And it could be more by simply creating an app that every person can download and link to their card creating the graphics and optionally the text that any person could use and whilst this is done, Miral could consider what else is in play, because they are about to spend $545 million to $816 million USD on the Harry Potter extension doubling the size of their park. I reckon that creating the tools for maximum engagement is key to making this earn its merits back (money too) before they get to 2035.

When you consider how much power engagement has (against clicks by troll farms) the choice is simple and as I see it Miral has to up their game somewhat. 

Have a great day today.

By bus or by brain

That is what I was confronted with. I had to take the bus (too much to walk) and I don’t mind the bus, it gets me to relax (not as much as a train), so I was looking around and the bad of a lady caught my eye. It was a rather large circular clasp. A moment later a thought hit me. “What if it was not merely a clasp?” And my mind went on a little voyage. And android device (it should work on iOS as well, as such an independent developer could satisfy both markets. A circular device which was connected to a bak or messenger bag by a magnet. The clasp is charged wirelessly and optional (in future models) it could be partially charged by your mobile. So the device is driven  by getting paired to your mobile and as I see it, it could be operated by any widget your phone has installed. World times, Weather, you name it, it pairs and I reckon that the clasp has 256Mb memory so it doesn’t run out of memory any day soon (or if someone ‘accidentally’ puts every wedge on the phone) so charging is wireless, so we have no port connection, as such that drive is better protected against water. The clasp is paired to a mobile (I reckon that it the wireless charger is also a magnetic connector to the phone for restoring all parts it needs and initial pairing. After it is paired once it is set into ROM (Read-Only Memory) and contains the IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity. As such stealing it is useless and only if a factory reset is done via the mobile can the clasp be freed. 

The setting is that the mobile can stay where it is and direct information is available. Too many mobiles are stolen as people get them out, this might prevent some of these thefts. The idea is too also incorporate text messages and make then readable through the clasp. Another method of theft avoided and as the clasp has a strong magnet connector, and if it is under the flap of the (messenger) bag as such safety is better and the fact that it is bound to the mobile, there are less reasons to steal them as such making the theft a hazard and not a form of income. In addition we could add on the mobile and on the clasp a sound to ask where they are, so the clasp could let the phone whistle where it is and the mobile could call out to the clasp (This idea already exists on Smart watches) I merely added the clasp to have that too. There is the idea to have a code setting of a fingerprint to access text messages, because that might be needed. The widgets are accessible at all times. The text messages, and optionally things like Google Keep and other personal controlled data not. But on route when you want to check weather, times and other settings you need access to a be accessed. You could add a control setting telling the clasp which apps are privacy controlled and which are not. We could leave this up to the user (which is always a good idea).

As I moved to my destination, the clasp made more and more sense. The people optionally getting of the bus could grab the mobile and run off. The optional clasp could set out an alarm telling others that it is a stolen object, there are more options, but I feel hesitant to employ these. I reckon that this is in hands on the Android/iOS operators. Still, the idea has merit as I see it, you see, not everyone os happy with a smartwatch. Some people embrace their Rolex, Breitling, Philip Patek or the upper class devices like Seiko and Citizen and people get really attached to their watches as such the clasp could also be an alternative for that reason. The setting is that the clasp is larger than the watch and as such could reveal more or information in a larger fount. Just an idea to consider. 

Anyway, that was my creative bubble working in the 37.8 minutes (roughly) whilst I travelled from A to B. Perhaps it is nothing, perhaps the idea gets others inspired to make the idea real. Well that is it for now. Time for me to see Megan make people run for their lives (the first movie) and perhaps it gives me more ideas, one can only hope.

A New congregation

The idea hit me a moment ago whilst I was watching YouTube. Videos on the Vatican, as well as (bad) AI movies on Star Wars and all these thoughts mixed a different setting. You see, I always believed that games are the best instruction methods. It won’t make you a Ranger if you ace all the Fortnite campaigns, but it can be used to instill abilities. One game that stood out was ChipBits (CBM64) and I heard that a new version was made on Windows by the original makers. I hope it works out for them, I really do. But these thoughts were mixing when I was considering a few things. 

Last week I saw some add that offered AI programmers over $400K annual, which sounds like a ploy of desperation, even in the height of Oracle’s needs, no programming DBA ever made that much money. And it is ludicrous to think so. Plenty of programming jobs exist and you can make a real decent penny, but not ever that much. Then there is LinkedIn with its Microsoft tethers and there are massive needs to get people on board in many ways, but I see them as hollow sales ploys. As a service minded person, I see the desperate effect of these moneymakers trying to get you on THEIR side and that is how they reel you in, then there is the setting of courses which will pull your wallet for several thousands and when you come to think of it (the small consideration that all AI is fake) we have a problem.

Don’t get me wrong Machine Learning (ML) is real, Large Language Models (LLM) are real (I tend to call them DML (Deeper Machine Learning) and we have Predictive Analytics and that is real and they are powerful tools, but Predictive Analytics has its own flaw because that is data based and data that is unvalidated and unverified becomes a real threat to that solution.

So where am I going here?
So when a place like Google offers a game not unlike ChipBits but modularly growing in several directions with additional settings over time (like trinary parts) and infill these skills of programming into a game letting the older youth (I think they are called teenagers now) get into that field completely set in a Google place of mind, both players (a Gemini reference) could grow actual skills without spending too much money. I reckon that Google could offer that for a simple $10 a month. Something most could afford, optionally it starts after you reached level 2 or 3 and you get the first three levels to home your skills free of charge. It creates traction and as such you could grow a population that embraces your solution without you having to push the fake AI setting, explain the ground works of predictive analytics, teach these gamers (aka students of life and education) the use of LLM and how to set this in machine learning. Now consider that the game will have partial settings not unlike ConfirmIT with a sort of Script setting that brings the knowledge to the ‘game’ and as these ‘gamers’ grow their knowledge you grow the population and create traction towards Gemini (and Google), the simple approach to adjust a good gaming principle towards a common goal most of us needs without draining them of their livelihood and consider what firm offers $400K a year? Where is the return on Investment? And I saw the same ludicrous setting over a decade ago. We now see “500+ roles are listed across platforms like LinkedIn Sydney AI Jobs and SEEK Sydney AI Jobs” I saw it a decade ago with DBA roles and I was told there were over 1600 jobs. All empty, no real jobs and it starts all over again. So now I am creating a setting where people trying to get into this field have a chance, properly informed and not some OpenAI/Microsoft sales talk to get you on board to THEIR solution. 

I think the idea has a shot of working, but I reckon it is up to Google to consider. Optionally Oracle could use that idea, but I think they have a solid training ground with their DBA trainings. 

Anyway, that was my idea to slice through the job BS that we are seeing now. Have a great day.

Just like that

This is what I was given a little over 5 hours ago when I was given (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5j9x9pr0240o) ‘Pentagon stops using Anthropic AI tools after blacklisting company, BBC told’ with the subtext “The US Department of Defence is no longer using Anthropic’s AI tools, an official has told the BBC, months after it designated the company a supply chain risk on national security grounds. The Pentagon “has ceased the use of Anthropic products”, the department official said in a statement on Monday.”

We can speculate all we want, the simplistic version that I reach for is that all AI is fake, it is an advance form of predicted analytics and as I was able to set the stage of ‘Maybe we bomb Iran to hell’ (or something of the sort states by President Trump) all whilst I needed nothing more that the advanced statistical tools seen below:

An advanced statistical took invented by Babylonians 4500 years ago. And it told be that the US will have depleted its stockpile before that happens and it needs 3-4 years to get their stockpile up to date (that is if they have the dineros to pay for that all) and there is more, because a war is won by grit (in the very least) and I reckon that the tools by Anthropic told them as much and what does this administration do when the outcome doesn’t match their reasoning? (Im leaving that in the open) But the setting of National security is a laugh to say the least. The end of the article by the BBC gives us “Hegseth designated the company a “national security supply-chain risk” – a law typically reserved for companies based in countries that pose a threat to the US.” So what is a ‘supply-chain risk’? Im just putting the question out there, because if these are tools specific for the defense department, so either it will not or does not give the answers they need. Optionally it makes Anthropic the juiciest tool in their tastebuds, but the distancing parties are at least as intelligent as I am and they see that beyond the marketing all AI is fake (at present) as such what danger is there to national security? At best it is (under optimal data settings) a decent predictive analytics tool, under debatable settings (like I heard from my coworkers in Chicago) that certain ‘people’ gave them the run around with excuses like: ‘we’ll fix this on the backend’ or ‘we are about to get there’ and I reckon they never got these points settled, it was too hard for them. As such their national security is riddled with the GIGO laws in place (Garbage in, Garbage out). Now this last part is presumption, because I was never in the know. But it is the most likely of settings and anyone deep enough with Anthropic (or OpenAI) could see that in a near instance and that is where the trouble starts. As I personally see it Dario Amodei has a backbone, a hardcover, not a paperback like Sam Altman (I merely accuse him of being narcissistic, which is not a crime) as such the defense department is likely making a few changes in the short term (or if they are merciful on their data departments they will cut these fake AI’s all together).

I would prefer if they do that AFTER they pay Oracle for their services, but I don’t work for Oracle, so I actually don’t care. But it would be nice for Oracle. I am a decent bloke in that regard. As such the hardcover mention comes from “But earlier this year, the Pentagon pressed it to remove its safety guardrails from Claude and give the military unfettered access to its AI products.

When Anthropic refused, citing concerns of mass surveillance and autonomous weapons” which is a likely culprit, but it in not the only reason. I reckon that any media worth its salt has been pouring over the data chaps in the Defense department for a while now and as they are not as heavily dined like the people at Langley they might spill a java bean or two during desert to one of those Washingtonian women in journalism, but that is just me postulating.

I reckon that there is some truth that this US administration would like to blame Claude for whatever comes next, even if there is enough data out there showing that the GIGO laws are to blame and the people in charge are ‘assuming’ that the data is flawless when it wasn’t even close in the late 90s and in the 20 years that followed the mess got greater. Because from two faulty assumptions a truth can never be distilled and that is the one direct consequence why I am so intent on verification and validation. All results derive from these two truths in action and in place and as far as I can tell none of these systems have this, as such the predictive analytics are prone to errors, the fake AI can never derive anything from validated data and if there is no verification the faults merely increase. So what happens? Mass surveillance goes wrong because the the subject was non-caucasian and that is before we get the setting that translation errors of a passport come into play, the simple validation of a passport, a human requirement and all that is up for grabs as we consider the BBC article where Pete Hegseth is looking at the President like he is admiring ‘his Masters Voice’ (older readers will get that reference). 

And just like that we see another ‘failure’ (in a good way) hit these fake AI (or Super Intelligence) hit the world. So where are you in all this? I am merely asking, because we have a multi billion dollar device being outclassed by a $30 device not needing electricity. Did I oversimplify the problem here? Have a great day today.
