In my mind

This is not some setting from “because I say so”, but it is a setting that I expect. To see what trinary systems (some call them ternary systems) can do ‘because of’ “Potentially higher speed and efficiency, allowing for less storage space per bit and more compact circuitry. Balanced ternary handles negative numbers natively.” The IT world is relying on the setting (because it knocks them of their throne) with “Difficult to design, higher power consumption in some implementations, and a lack of mature research compared to binary.” They are not wrong, but trinary is tomorrow and it is set to actual and factual true Artificial Intelligence. As such in my mind the system created 1,000,000 possible culprits, but the setting to identify this (with much in the middle of the data) we see a cube with a 100 layers of 100 by 100 people. Each person has over 100 elements and that is still a decent data setting. The binary solution gives us 4 reds (highly likely culprits), two dozen orange (people who are not to be dismissed as a suspect at present) and the rest is cleared, it took the binary solution 47 seconds. So in comes the trinary solution and it gives us two reds and 5 orange and it does so in 6 seconds. That is the setting that trinary beers binary gives us on 1,000,000 people. So when (lets for arguments sake say Oracle) gives the people the impact of that and the gain in computational power as well as offer higher information density and theoretical efficiency. The sales talk is done at that point and consider the amounts of data sources have, we can say that at that point Binary solutions are done for in a world where time matters and where efficiency is goal. You should not dismiss Fake AI that easily, because some people cannot afford trinary solutions before 2040-2050. But that setting if computational power is not to be dismissed. No matter what the binary tycoons claim. So in 6 seconds, the 19 non-dismissible people were disregarded on the foundation of the SAME data, because that was part of the exercise. And I reckon that shallow circuits will be a much stronger solution in a trinary setting that it ever could be in a binary setting. Don’t get me wrong, it will help heaps. 1 million people with over 100 elements is still 100,000,000 settings in a true/false environment. This is why I disregard (at present) as all AI, simply as fake AI. And for the people stating this is merely in my mind. You are right and fortunately I had an education from UTS and a degree in internet working. So we all have had that setting of data and non-repudiation. And don’t forget in a trinary setting non-repudiation is more than a simple equation. It will figure out that you and only you could have done something like that. This is why I valued Oracle (and optionally Snowflake) above all the others, by the time you are done with listening to the salespeople from Azure stating that this is the way to go, you are hooked and that is where you lose the fight. And when Oracle set up whatever they call there trinary database system, there will be a population of one in the forefront of real AI and those who were ‘enticed’ by the sales talk of others, because those salespeople don’t care about you, they care about their own product and they are set to do the best that their solution can do for you. Here language and legal settings matter, because they never outspokenly lie, they merely omit factors that they regard don’t concern you. Even Google Gemini give us “ternary remains limited by manufacturing complexity and lower reliability.” Every one who knows me knows that I am a huge Google fan, so where did Gemini gets that data? (simple: reddit) and it gives the source, but how was it verified and validated? And at present it is a true setting, but if you realise that this technology is still well over a decade away (at best) are they lying? You need to see the bigger picture, especially when these vendors trow phrases like “AI” around and when people are cluing up that it is all Fake AI, we will see carefully phrased denials like “they were all doing it, we just followed them” and that is where you see that these proclaimers are merely following one another. What a tangled web we weave. 

Still I reckon that Snowflake and Oracle will have transference systems in development, because I am not the ‘genius of one innovator’ others have similar setting in mind and they are preparing to give their customers the best that is possible with the current technology in place. 

So as we are looking at a day of rest (or like me slaughtering people in Skyrim), we need to consider the media frenzy that is evolving around us and be very careful what you accept as true. Even my statements should be examined. The one stating “My data is without flaw” is the liar in your inner circle. And be careful who you let into your inner circle because that is your decision and it will cost you the moment you allow the wrong person in your midst. 

Have a great day. So don’t think of this ‘article or story’ as valid, it is a collection of thoughts that are mine and even as I presume that it is all factual, it remains a story unless I can verify and validate the data I have and some of this was collected through fake AI, so I know there are parts that are not aligning.

Ignoring the centre of the pie

That is the setting that I saw when I took notice of ‘Will quantum be bigger than AI?’ (at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c04gvx7egw5o) now there is no real blame to show here. There is no blame on Zoe Kleinman (she is an editor). As I personally see it, we have no AI. What we have is DML and LLM (and combinations of the two), they are great and great tools and they can get a whole lot done, but it is not AI. Why do I feel this way? The only real version of AI was the one Alan Turing introduced us to and we are not there yet. Three components are missing. The first is Quantum Processing. We have that, but it is still in its infancy. The few true Quantum systems there are are in the hands of Google, IBM and I reckon Microsoft. I have no idea who leads this field but these are the players. Still they need a few things. In the first setting Shallow Circuits needs to be evolved. As far as I know (which is not much) is that it is still evolving. So what is a shallow circuit. Well, you have a number of steps to degrade the process. The larger the process, the larger the steps. Shallow circuits makes this easier. To put it in layman’s terms. The process doesn’t grow, it is simplified. 

To put this in perspective, lets take another look. In the 90’s we had Btree+ trees. In that setting, lets say we have a register with a million entries. In Btree it goes to the 50% marker, was the record we needed further or less than that. Then it takes half go that and does the same query. So as one system (like DBase3+ goes from start to finish), Btree goes 0 to 500,000 to 750,000 to 625,000. As such in 4 steps it passed through 624999 records. This is the speediest setting and it is not foolproof, that record setting is a monster to maintain, but it had benefits. Shallow Circuits has roughly the same benefits (if you want to read up to this, there is something at https://qutech.nl/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/m1-koenig.pdf) it was a collaboration of Robert König with Sergey Bravyi and David Gosset in 2018. And the gist of it is given through “Many locality constraints on 2D HLF-solving circuits” where “A classical circuit which solves the 2D HLF must satisfy all such cycle relations” and the stage becomes “We show that constant-depth locality is incompatible with these constraints” and now you get the first setting that these AI’s we see out there aren’t real AI’s and that will be the start of several class actions in 2026 (as I personally see it) and as far as I can tell, large law firms are suiting up for this as these are potentially trillion dollar money makers (see this as 5 times $200B) as such law firms are on board, for defense and for prosecution, you see, there is another step missing, two steps actually. The first is that this requires a new operating system, one that enables the use of the Epsilon Particle. You see, it will be the end of Binary computation and the beginning of Trinary computations which are essential to True AI (I am adopting this phrase to stop confusion) You see, the world is no really Yes/No (or True/False), that is not how True AI or nature works. We merely adopted this setting decades ago, because that was what there was and IBM got us there. You see, there is one step missing and it is seen in the setting NULL,TRUE,FALSE,BOTH. NULL is that there are no interactions, the action is FALSE, TRUE or BOTH, that is a valid setting and the people who claim bravely (might be stupidly) that they can do this are the first to fall into these losing class actions. The quantum chip can deal with the premise, but the OS it deals with needs to have a trinary setting to deal with the BOTH option and that is where the horse is currently absent. As I see it, that stage is likely a decade away (but I could be wrong and I have no idea where IBM is in that setting as the paper is almost a decade old. 

But that is the setting I see, so when we go back to the BBC with “AI’s value is forecast in the trillions. But they both live under the shadow of hype and the bursting of bubbles. “I used to believe that quantum computing was the most-hyped technology until the AI craze emerged,” jokes Mr Hopkins.” Fair view, but as I see it the AI bible is a real bubble with all the dangers it holds as AI isn’t real (at present), Quantum is a real deal and only a few can afford it (hence IBM, Google, Microsoft) and the people who can afford such a system (apart from these companies) are Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, Sergei Brin and Larry Ellison (as far as I know) because a real quantum computer takes up a truckload of energy and the processor (and storage are massively expensive, how expensive? Well I don’t think Aramco could afford it, now without dropping a few projects along the way. So you need to be THAT rich to say the least. To give another frame of reference “Google unveiled a new quantum chip called Willow, which it claimed could take five minutes to solve a problem that would currently take the world’s fastest super computers 10 septillion years – or 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years – to complete.” And that is the setting for True AI, but in this the programming isn’t even close to ready, because this is all problem by problem all whilst a True AI (like V.I.K.I. in I Robot) can juggle all these problems in an instant. As I personally see it, that setting is decades away and that is if the previous steps are dealt with. Even as I oppose the thought “Analysts warned some key quantum stocks could fall by up to 62%” as there is nothing wrong with Quantum computing, as I see its it is the expectations of the shareholders who are likely wrong. Quantum is solid, but it is a niche without a paddock. Still, whomever holds the Quantum reigns will be the first one to hold a true AI and that is worth the worries and the profits that follow. 

So as I see this article as an eye opener, I don’t really see eye to eye on this side. The writer did nothing wrong. So whilst we might see that Elon Musk was right stating “This week Elon Musk suggested on X that quantum computing would run best on the “permanently shadowed craters of the moon”.” That might work with super magnet drives, quantum locking and a few other settings on the edge of the dark side of the moon, I see some ‘play’ on this, but I have no idea how far this is set and what the data storage systems are (at present) and that is the larger equation here. Because as I see it, trinary data can not be stored on binary data carriers, no matter who cool it is with liquid nitrogen. And that is at the centre of the pie. How to store it all because like the energy constraints, the processing constraints, the tech firms did not really elaborate on this, did they? So how far that is is anyones guess, but I personally would consider (at present, and uneducated) that IBM to be the ruling king of the storage systems. But that might be wrong.

So have a great day and consider where your money is, because when these class actions hit, someone wins and it is most likely the lawyer that collects the fees, the rest will lose just like any other player in that town. So how do you like your coffee at present and do you want a normal cup or a quantum thermal?
