On Friday, the world’s fastest supercomputer – Summit – made its debut at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The monster machine packs a staggering 27,648 Volta Tensor Core GPUs and 9,216 CPUs into 5,600 square feet of cabinet space that’s similar in size to two tennis courts. It weighs nearly as much as a commercial jetliner and is connected by 185 miles of fiber optic cables.
"Its software will write software, amazing software that no human can write."
...and no human can understand! This is where we start to lose control of computers...

"The machine, built for the US Department of Energy, will assist scientists with research in the fields of materials discovery, high-energy physics, healthcare and more."
BULLSHIT.
And "MORE" is right. DOE doesn't need all that; it's just the cover story.
Here it comes, people.

It looks like we are slightly ahead of Kurzweil's prediction-

Thanks for that. If his chart (2009) had included the last 10 years - it would have reflected exponential growth path cause it's sure as hell up there now.

Doesn't DOE cover some of the military projects?

IMO - Summit will cover everything.

Here's a fun little scenario.
Summit, with the data of the new Massachusetts Red Flag law, creates software where anyone who might be a danger to themselves or others should have their firearms confiscated. Utilizing 1) the data from the NIH and HHS that states anyone who eats cherry Popsicles is endangering their health, 2) and monitoring all grocery sales, 3) utilizing Face recognition data and other personal information - creates a list of potentially dangerous people and sends it with their LKA as an Alert to Law Enforcement. Based on the the analysis from Summit.... yeah. Wont even need a pissed-off family member, or legislation, to end 2A.
Summit can also write the software that shuts down all gun manufacturing capability, etc, because having weapons is dangerous to self and others. So says all the data Summit now has the ability to process, and act on, on it's own.

So, just to show my geek/nerdy side.
I was watching an episode of Humans (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humans_(TV_series)) last night, where one of the main characters was deemed 'redundant,' and it was revealed he was deemed 'redundant,' wholly by machines, not a single human involved in the decision process.

That ^^^ is exactly my point. And - it doesn't even have to be a lucid rise/revolt of the machines. Just using the data WE have already put out there - it's understandable, and predictable, that AI would come to the algorithmic conclusion it's what it is supposed to do.

This place has too many Mods and Admins... We need some software to figure out which ones are "redundant"... lol...
Or a better rabble rousing technique would be to put it to a VOTE... Members of the ORANGE UNITE!!!!!!!!! LOL...
JK.
Oh and btw Summit is simply bitchain mining... It will be a HUGE ROI for "taxpayers"...
The United States Department of Energy (DOE) is a cabinet-level department of the United States Government concerned with the United States' policies regarding energy and safety in handling nuclear material. Its responsibilities include the nation's nuclear weapons program, nuclear reactor production for the United States Navy, energy conservation, energy-related research, radioactive waste disposal, and domestic energy production. It also directs research in genomics; the Human Genome Project originated in a DOE initiative.[3]

A lil bit o trivia... DOE funded the HGP... I did some "time" with them at Wash U YEARS Ago...

A real twisted use of AI:
'Norman,' when artificial intelligence goes psycho
No, it's not a new horror film. It's Norman: also known as the first psychopathic artificial intelligence, just unveiled by US researchers.
The goal is to explain in layman's terms how algorithms are made, and to make people aware of AI's potential dangers.
Norman "represents a case study on the dangers of Artificial Intelligence gone wrong when biased data is used in machine learning algorithms," according to the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Pinar Yanardag, Manuel Cebrian and Iyad Rahwan, part of an MIT team, added: "there is a central idea in machine learning: the data you use to teach a machine learning algorithm can significantly influence its behavior."
"So when we talk about AI algorithms being biased on unfair, the culprit is often not the algorithm itself, but the biased data that was fed to it," they said via email.
Hence the idea of creating Norman, which was named after the psychopathic
killer Norman Bates in the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock film "Psycho."
Norman was "fed" only with short legends describing images of "people dying" found on the Reddit internet platform.
The researchers then submitted images of ink blots, as in the Rorschach psychological test, to determine what Norman was seeing and compare his answers to those of traditionally trained AI.
The results are scary, to say the least: where traditional AI sees "two people standing close to each other," Norman sees in the same spot of ink "a man who jumps out a window."
And when Norman distinguishes "a man shot to death by his screaming wife," the other AI detects "a person holding an umbrella."
A dedicated website, norman-ai.mit.edu, shows 10 examples of ink blots accompanied by responses from both systems, always with a macabre response from Norman.
The site lets Internet users also test Norman with ink blots and send their answers "to help Norman repair itself."

It took less than 24 hours for Twitter to corrupt an innocent AI chatbot. Yesterday, Microsoft unveiled Tay — a Twitter bot that the company described as an experiment in "conversational understanding." The more you chat with Tay, said Microsoft, the smarter it gets, learning to engage people through "casual and playful conversation."

"Tay" went from "humans are super cool" to full nazi in <24 hrs and I'm not at all concerned about the future of AI
