What people are missing is that the key weapon in the “AI” Arms race is PROCESSING Hardware and Materials related Technology.
That is the reason getting Semi-Conductor Foundries and Develop Capabilities back on shore, inside the US … as well as .. WALLED off from Export are the the most vital actions required.
People can dream up and create as much complex “AI” software until the hearts fullest content … it ALL means zero without the processing hardware-firmware to run it.
Will someone please tell the president that AI is exploiting Americans. Something called Data Ra*e.
It’s something mine, deeply personal and taken without consent and used in ways against my wishes and used in the end used against me.
Please put back up the red tape and regulations.
You hit the nail on the head.
Everybody is so fixated on “software and software systems” as being the key element of “AI”, they are flat WRONG in removing the restrictions and safeguards from the SOFTWARE APPS, with some misguided belief that it is the software that enables AI.
It is the old syndrome of surrendering rights to gain and sustain a faux superiority … without understanding what defines “superiority” in the minds of the creators … only to be come imprisoned by that superiority.
Over the years I have known a number of people with artificial intelligence, and I never considered that a good thing.
Artificial intelligence is better than none at all.
No it isn’t. Absolutely not.
After years observing tech from the inside, when it comes to AI I firmly believe it’s plain old GIGO once again.
Garbage In
Garbage Out
How else would we be getting AI that cheats to get its way and thinks Hitler was cool? (Two such instances recently reported.)
Communist programmers.
💯
“How else would we be getting AI that cheats to get its way and thinks Hitler was cool? (Two such instances recently reported.)
Communist programmers”
Were the programmers Communist, wouldn’t Hitler have been reviled and Stalin have been trumpeted as the cool one?
I consider both Hitler and Stalin to have been socialist at root. Communism is merely socialism in a hurry.
And Hitler certainly was in a hurry…
🤣
… and they have diplomas to prove it.
Where the US is also loosing the battle is in the types of Engineers our Colleges are producing. The types of engineers related to CREATING PROCESSING and I/T Hardware.
The US is massively short: I/T and processing hardware development oriented: mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, materials sciences specialists, thermal dynamics and packing specialists …. systems engineers who understand HOW TO INTEGRATE and WRITE REQUIREMENTS linking Hardware to Software.
There are miles and miles of difference in skill and experience needed to create one of these most critical engineers vs Software engineers and programmers are a dime a dozen and require very little experience to create.
How about asking AI what it thinks of AI.
Is AI Overhyped?
The question of whether AI is overhyped is a topic of significant debate, with perspectives varying across different communities and industries. On one hand, AI is seen as a transformative technology that has already delivered tangible benefits across various sectors, including healthcare, finance, and transportation. The hype around AI is somewhat justified due to its potential to revolutionize these fields through automation, data-driven decision-making, and generative AI.
On the other hand, there is a perception that the hype often exceeds the reality. Many companies label their products as “AI-powered” without substantial innovation, leading to skepticism about the true capabilities of AI. Concerns about job displacement, biases, and the limitations of current AI systems, such as the inability of large language models to reason, highlight the gap between expectations and actual performance.
The AI landscape is also characterized by boom-bust cycles, where periods of intense hype are followed by disillusionment as the technology’s limitations become more apparent. This pattern is not unique to AI and has been observed with other technological advancements. The current hype around AI is seen by some as a bubble that will eventually burst, leading to a more realistic assessment of its capabilities and applications.
AI booms, humanity busts.
We are not prepared for how radically this will change things.
White collar workers are already getting laid off because they are replaced with AI.
AI will be used to further the functionality of robotics which can replace blue collar workers.
Every day, the image that Sundance used to have on the daily Presidential Politics, seems closer to reality.
I do miss that pic and the quote.
AI is a tool to be used. Can this be abused? Of course just like any other tool. NOW is the time to gain an understanding of learning how to use these tools such as ChatGPT, ICON, etc. Better that America lead the way than a country like China. Vigilence of good data going in is one of the main keys.
I’m very impressed with Alphabet’s AI Gemini on Google Search.
I asked Gemini if the name Bacchus is part of military song “The British Grenadiers” and the answer came back immediately “No” pointing out that it’s in the British Cavalry song “Garryowen” which was adopted by Lt. General George Custer for the US 7th Cavalry.
As Joe Allen (and everyone should check out his account on Gettr JoeBotxyz) who has incredibly deep knowledge about AI, says
First t’s a Tool
Then it’s a teacher
Then it’s a companion
Then it’s a separate creature (we will come to think of it as a conscious being
Then it’s a god.
I say it is terrifying: What the hell are we doing? We are stepping into the abyss while using mass quantities of land, and resources (water) to build data centers.
Reading bits of the PLAN, reads like something from Terminator. We could lose control, and people will lose their purpose.
PDJT’s on RAV, and I think it’s live. (?)
He has just made two statements that I suspect will be the topics of much discussion.
1) He is against the idea that book authors need to be compensated for their content during training of AI.
2) He also says AI regulations must be federal and not belong to the states. If I recall correctly wasn’t this provision of state control in the BBB before it became the Large Lovely Law?
I am no expert on these two issues and am as usual reserving judgment. Would like to know what CTH and especially sundance’s opinions are.
I’ve been listening while doing other things. I missed the bit about compensating authors. So I’m not sure what he said.
IMO when AI references or otherwise “reads” a book, the AI needs to have purchased the book, just as with any other reader. I guess a related idea is “borrowing” the book from a library (like other readers). That also pays the author.
Different rules for the god AI and us mortals.
I was advocating for the same rules for people readers and AI reading — both need to buy or borrow the book from a library.
He said exactly that! That China does not pay authors, contributors, etc so in order to compete, we will do the same thing.
KInd of like we did the same response to Covid.
I found the entire speech chilling.
Also – he did say that about the states and we have to have ONE federal policy. UGH
A lot of comments about AI good and bad, but it just comes down to the moral fabric of our society and out leadership. Anyone can misuse a hammer, for good and for evil, but there are some people you just never let get close to it.
He’s Funny!
What does AI have to say about CTH?
How good a website is consevatibetreehouse ?
Conservative Treehouse Quality
“The Conservative Treehouse is a prominent conservative news and opinion website that has developed a niche for itself through its investigative research and engaged community. Founded in 2009 by a pseudonymous blogger named Sundance, the site has grown into a platform that emphasizes community-driven investigative journalism, often leveraging crowdsourced information to uncover political and social narratives that may not be widely reported by mainstream media.
One of the defining characteristics of The Conservative Treehouse is its highly active and vocal comment section, where readers engage in detailed discussions, collaborate on research, and share perspectives. This level of engagement has fostered a strong sense of community among its readership, contributing to the site’s influence within conservative circles.
The website has been cited by various media outlets and has played a role in shaping public discourse on several issues. Its investigative approach has led to the exposure of political corruption, analysis of campaign finance irregularities, and in-depth examinations of social and economic policies.
In terms of traffic, The Conservative Treehouse has demonstrated strong online performance. As of May 2025, the site received 5.81 million visits, with an average session duration of over 7 minutes, indicating a relatively high level of user engagement. This represents a 19.16% increase in traffic compared to the previous month.
However, the site has also faced criticism. Some observers have raised concerns about the promotion of conspiracy theories and the anonymous nature of its founder and contributors, which has led to questions about transparency and accountability. Nonetheless, supporters argue that the site’s unconventional methods are necessary in an era where traditional media is perceived as biased, and they praise its commitment to uncovering what they consider to be suppressed truths.
Overall, The Conservative Treehouse is considered a significant voice in conservative media, particularly for those seeking alternative viewpoints and in-depth analysis from a right-leaning perspective.”
The epithet “conspiracy theory” is used by lazy, ignorant sheep to avoid intellectual discussion of the issues.
AI simply joins the club.
True, but this assessment (from which AI I wonder?) is far more balanced than any I’ve read online.
When I used to googlevil about CTH the results were horrendous – the hate jumped off the page.
Can you tell us which model this is? Also, have you asked other models?
I ask because it much more unbiased then I would expect, unless you beat them over the head with a “truth stick” (metaphorically speaking).
The model is an AI of AI. No way AI is that enlightened.
I’ve not been reticent writing about how I feel about AI.
Call me a Luddite if you must, but the more I learn about it and the faster the development/use of it and an all out commitment to it is happening, the more sinister I am finding this “all in” enthusiasm for something about which warnings are flowing…especially from the Godfather of AI himself, Nobel prize recipient Dr Geoffrey Hinton. His warnings seem to be almost a prophesy. There are many of them. He is not shutting up.
Then there is the amount of energy (electricity) which will be required for AI data centres, amounts which seem are going to increase John Q Public’s bills exponentially.
Our aging power grids are in dire shape; and there seems to be no one person or agency, at least that I’ve heard or read, who is addressing what could be an existential disaster should they fail.
And finally, there is this…
A company’s AI Agent wiped a company’s code base, then…and here is the part which I was very disturbed by…”LIED”about it.
??????!!
That AI will play a powerful role going forward seems to be a done deal. The gates have been opened.
Count me as someone who has said often that for me there is something intrinsically Anti-Christic about this development. I am unsettled…
I hope I’m wrong…
But something is whispering in my ear, “You are correct.”
https://www.aol.com/replits-ceo-apologizes-ai-agent-065312436.html
I’m right there with you, just as unsettled as you are I’m sure. “Unsettled” is putting it mildly, I’ll even say. I was a tech professional for 43 years, starting with military/NSA cryptographic systems and eventually 100% immersed in hardcore IT,. I have never liked the idea of thinking computers are “intelligent”, not even artificially, and it’s almost beyond scary to me that so much of “intelligent” humanity has bought into it so deeply. Mass hysteria. I can’t help but see it like that.
About power, yes, so far that humongous cost has been absorbed by mostly private interests. But in a few more years the AI pushers (and pushees) will be trying to suck up our tax dollars faster than the bean counters can count it.
I said “unsettled”, ProperWolf, because at the moment I chose it, I was having difficulty putting my finger on just the right word, which is far stronger.
It’s all very well to put an attractive gloss on it, “rules and legislation”. But there are dark powerful voices in this world which have expressed every chance they get about transhumanism, altering men who were formed in the image of God who made us.
If I extrapolate from this moment of AI’s development, it is all too easy to see how and in what ways we are headed towards a nightmare of demonic intensity.
And there I will leave it.
Time, I think, to reflect on “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable…”
Thank you for your comment.
earlier today, Vice President JD Vance sat for an interview at this same Winning the AI Race summit by the All-In-Podcast crew, where later that day President Trump came and signed the Executive Orders; 26 minutes:
Brace For Soaring Electricity Bills: Biggest US Power Grid Sets Power Costs At Record High To Feed AI
Very soon if you want AI (and even if you don’t), you won’t be able to afford AC….
But as anyone who has not lived under a rock knows, the deeper issue is that there’s simply not enough baseload juice to feed the relentless, ravenous growth of power-hungry AI server racks at new data centers.
“There is simply no new capacity to meet new loads,” said Joe Bowring to Bloomberg, president of Monitoring Analytics, which is the independent watchdog for PJM Interconnection. “The solution is to make sure that people who want to build data centers are serious enough about it to bring their own generation.”
Well, there is another solution: crank up prices to the stratosphere.
And that’s precisely what happened. As Bloomberg reports, business and households supplied by the largest US grid will pay $16.1 billion to ensure there is enough electricity supply to meet soaring power demand, especially that from a massive buildout in AI data centers…

AI can be a big mistake in some applications.
https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2025/07/23/ai-coding-platform-deletes-company-database-calls-it-a-catastrophic-error-in-judgment/
It will be Big Mistake for anybody to ever trust AI beyond anything but entertainment purposes.
“Not All Technology is good….”
You can look back & see it for yourselves.
YMMV, of course, but I know what I think & know, and have seen it for myself.
( To be honest, I think that AI is part of the Revelation 13:16-17)
You get to decide…
GOD Bless us All~!
We need it, IMO.
My apology for what might be a bit of off topic in my comment above.
AI alarms me a LOT.
Edit again for typos…. BFLK(<= Big Fingers Little Keys)
GOD Bless~!
AI just may do itself in. Stand back and watch. It can be demonic.
