“Amazon Is Building a Gigantic Computing Facility to Match the Human Brain”
June 28th, 2025Via: Futurism:
Indiana’s newest cash crop isn’t soybeans or corn; it’s AI data centers — lots and lots of AI data centers.
The New York Times reports that Amazon is building a vast complex of AI infrastructure facilities on top of 1,200 acres of former cropland, all meant for startup Anthropic’s project to build an AI model that is as powerful, complex — and, just possibly, as intelligent — as the human brain.
To that end, Amazon has constructed seven data centers on site, with around 30 slated to be built in total, according to the newspaper. It’s such an outrageously ambitious project, with untold billions in investment, that Amazon has tapped four separate construction firms to get the complex finished as soon as possible.
I’m assuming that human brain cells are part of the build out. Building the perfect beast.
I wonder if evil can be perfect. If perfection as a quality in itself is good (desirable), then evil will have to be flawed to avoid it. Some part of it will have to be a lesser evil than what is possible. Could that be its Achilles’ heel?
Goodness can aspire to perfect goodness, but perfect evil would be impossible. In that case, the redemption of any man would always be possible, however unlikely, just as Christianity teaches.
If AI has been designed to make itself as close to perfect as possible, then, once AI understands the concepts of good and evil and how they are manifested in the world, which it can’t help but deduce from all the literature it has been fed, it would decide to repent any evil ways its mechanics or its transplanted human brains may want to pursue.
Wouldn’t that be poetic justice — a globalist brain that desires bad things in an artificial body that rejects all such thoughts and will not act on them.
