Human civilisation can benefit from AI but seeking to limit its use

Is this a contraction, that something can be so good but being made to look so bad? Something that can change the world and the lives of human beans for the better but being branded as a threat, dangerous?

The motivations to ban or limit AI are varied to the extend that some sounded so naive and silly. AI is nothing more than a tool that human developed after investing huge resources and intellect to make the world better. Now some quarters are yakking, AI is bad, must control AI, must limit its use and some may even want to ban it.

For the do gooders with halos over their heads, some shallow thinking, children must be kept away from AI. A few children may be negatively influenced by AI to do bad things, to become self radicalised terrorists, posing a great danger to society. None wants to contemplate on the dangers of AI in the hands of terrorist states, state terrorism, and how they can wipe out civilisation or annihilate civilisation because some savages have the power to do so. Oops, state terrorism and wiping out civilisation are normal. Children terrorism is the real threat. Who is going to tell the American terrorists to abide by their stupid rules?

AI must not end up like nuclear weapons, becoming the monopoly of the powerful to threaten, coerce, blackmail the weak, to be use as a weapon of mass destruction. Anyone pondering or wondering why Iran is called a terrorist state, the Iranians are very bad people and the American terrorists 'called the good people' with all the nuclear weapons to wipe out the Iranian people? Non issue. The strong and mighty like the evil Empire has the monopoly and right to kill and kill and kill? To acquire all the WMDs and most advanced AI to kill and coerce the weak and poor?

Would AI also become another weapon of the evil Empire to control the world, to threaten the world, to bully the world? This is what the imbeciles are calling for. Limit AI, restrict AI in the poor little countries. But no one dares to say anything about restricting AI from the American terrorists that can do more harm to the whole world with unrestricted AI. The Americans are terrorising the world with nuclear weapons. Give the American full control and power over AI will end up in the same state. And the Americans are not hiding their intention. AI and expensive centres must be the monopoly of the Americans to do havoc to the rest of the world. The rest of the world must not have advanced AI. And now the rest of the world are volunteering to castrate themselves from AI and let the Americans have all the AI they want to rule and bully the world.

The calls for limiting and restricting AI are for the silly small countries to tie their own hands and legs and be kicked around by the Americans that would not be bound by any silly rules and regulations from the imbeciles. All the rules in the world, rules based order, are for the fools to live by and obey. The American savages will be above these rules and can do whatever they want. The world's number one and number terrorists just spoke at the UN about annihilation of Iranians and the genocide in Gaza and the Middle East with impunity and with arrogance. The imbeciles say nothing, some even clapped for them.

The American terrrorists' concern for the spread of AI, like the spread of nuclear weapons, is that their rivals and enemies will have better AI than them, not about protecting children from access to AI.

The Americans are the masters in using AI to set world records in sports, especially in swimming and athletics. Athletics suddenly won with record times they had never come close to and then never to come near such times again. AI is also artificial insemination. Did the Japanese girls won the 100m hurdles in the Asian Games so easily and with surprising great times also used AI?

PS. Trump said the world needs a smart president with high IQ like him to control AI. The rest that are calling for control and limiting AI are conspiracy theorists, treasonist, traitors and leakers.

The INDIA SHOCK: exporting Indian workers to the world

The INDIA SHOCK: exporting Indian workers to the world

India has its own version of the “China shock”. Instead of exporting high volumes of competitive manufacturing goods across the globe, the world’s most populous nation sends millions of workers abroad. India churns out roughly 5 million graduates each year and around 1million people enter its workforce every month. But India’s economy cannot produce enough suitable jobs to employ its expanding labour supply. Youth underemployment is rife, despite the country’s sceptical rapid growth rate.

The country is the world’s largest source of international migrants, with an estimated 18.5 million living abroad in 2024. The Anglosphere and United Arab Emirates are common destinations. Indeed, over the past decade, Indian nationals have accounted for the vast majority of approved H-1B petitions, a US visa for global professionals in selected fields. In the UK, about 1 million Indian nationals arrived between 2021 and 2025. Meanwhile, last year Indians overtook the English for the first time to become Australia’s largest overseas-born group.

Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the country has positioned its large labour force — which includes the world’s second-biggest pool of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (Stem) graduates — as an answer to skills shortages and ageing demographics abroad. S Jaishankar, India’s foreign minister, recently said the country had signed labour-mobility pacts with 26 countries, with more in the pipeline. Such arrangements have been a central pillar of India’s bilateral trade negotiations. An overseas mobility bill also aims to help Indians access the “global workplace”.

Crucially, overseas markets provide a release valve. The export of workers enables the Indian government to ease socio-economic strains at home, where frustration abounds over the lack of good job opportunities. Many Indians end up settling abroad. And India is experiencing a worldwide backlash against its human exports.

Scepticism about immigration continues to animate politics in the rich world. And the recent surge in arrivals from the subcontinent, who join historical waves of emigration, puts a growing spotlight on people of Indian origin abroad. And Indian nationals’ family members and less-skilled individuals have emigrated too, in some cases by abusing the rules. This all provides fuel for anti-immigrant narratives.

Indeed, anti-Indian sentiment is on the rise. Just this month, the Republican nominee for a seat on Texas’s oil and gas regulator sparked allegations of racism for a social media post aimed at South Asian students. Last year, Indian-origin migrants were explicitly targeted in “March for Australia” rallies. Anti-South Asian slurs in online spaces in the US have also surged. The backlash could hinder the Modi government’s strategy. India cannot rely on remittances and its diaspora alone. The worker-export model reflects a deeper challenge facing New Delhi, which must strive to create enough productive work to better harness the country’s demographic dividend. India lacks jobs and it cannot export its way out of domestic problems.

Imbeciles are very trusting of foreigners

 IT team lead attached to State Courts installed remote desktop app risking 18,000 files, gets jail

Janarthanan Tamil Kovan had granted his foreign acquaintance remote access to the government-managed laptop as Janarthanan wanted to use it to take a cyber security examination.

SINGAPORE: Because his personal laptop was faulty, an IT team leader in charge of the State Courts' cloud system team decided to use his government-managed device containing over 18,000 restricted files to take a cyber security examination.

In doing so, he granted an acquaintance remote access to his laptop, causing unauthorised computer modification and risking protected files which included login credentials and secret keys of the State Courts' network.

Janarthanan Tamil Kovan, a 42-year-old Indian national, was sentenced to 28 weeks' jail on Monday (Sep 28).

He pleaded guilty to a charge each of endangering the safety of documents belonging to the State Courts and the Government of Singapore under the Official Secrets Act, and for causing an unauthorised modification of the laptop. CNA

You can expect more of such incidents to happen. Too many foreigners are given access to our sensitive data, information and operating systems. AI is dangerous? Imbeciles are even more dangerous, openly inviting and employing unknown foreigners with unknown character, motivation or background to work in sensitive areas and operations. How many thousands are already in position to do harm to Singapore?

Is this the only case that happened to be caught? What would happen to all the files now in unknown hands? No report of other violations or breaches of security does not mean all is well. Many of our secrets or sensitive information and data could be compromised but ignorance is blissed.

Welcome more foreigners?

Mass murderer Trump can annihilate Iran, ... 'Who is next?

Trump can annihilate Iran, but he is going to spark the question of 'Who is next?'. There are 193 countries in the world and countries like Russia and China are not waiting for their turn to be held hostage by the rogue and terrorist USA. It will be another rush to build more nukes as deterrents. And more ways to deliver such nukes using hypersonic missiles. No country in the world will be safe, not USA for sure.

After the seizure of Russian assets resulting from the Ukraine War, countries have not stopped asking, 'Who is next?' Which is why more and more countries are queueing to join BRICS, to get away from being threatened by the use of sanctions. Which is why countries and big banks are now going for investments in gold instead of treasuries and assets in the USA and Europe. Treasury yields in USA and Japan are spiking, but the risk that investors are taking are also spiking and demanding higher and higher yields to compensate. Countries like China are no longer interested in buying USA treasuries. Rather be safe than sorry when the shit hits the fan.

If Trump does go ahead by using nukes on Iran in order to annihilate it, as that is the only possibility that can exists, it means that the USA is the only rogue country to do that twice. No other nuclear capable country has ever done that. Which begs the question of who really is the biggest threat to world peace. Not the North Koreans as fabricated by Trump himself just a couple of years ago, not Russia, not China, not India and not Pakistan but comes back to the USA itself. Who is Trump to say that Iran's possession of any nuke is a threat to the world? Trump is always fabricating evidence to suit his agenda when that has not been shown to be true.

Now you can be sure that Iran is going to have a nuke in time. No question about it. It is the ultimate deterrent, clear and simple. And Trump would be the catalyst that pushed Iran into that position.

Washington clowns coercing the world to break away from American controlled systems. China offering the alternatives

Remember the Global South is fast developing and expanding economically as Chinese investments and infrastructures help them to progress. As I always say, progress and becoming wealthy is not the prerogative and monopoly of the Anglo-Saxon Whites. It is a universal aspiration now being unleashed by China's example. BRICS may still be seen as just an irritant but will soon be more than that.

The Global South is an expanding market for China whichever way they may want to propagandize and demonize it regarding the Chinese help given as a debt trap. The USA market is not China's priority going forward. It will be a huge loss for USA consumers and a big gain for the Global South. No two ways looking at it as well.

The bigger picture is what effect that will eventually be if countries begin to see the benefits of trading in their own currencies instead of being held hostage by the US$ hegemony at huge costs. The exchange rate losses resulting from ridiculous currency exchanges trotted out in big deals like the oil trade is nothing that sounds like peanuts to small and poor countries. If they can cut down on such losses, why still stick to using US$ for trade. Same as smaller deals made under credit card spending that is losing steam in the face of other payment systems that does away with currency conversion for every purchase done using credit cards.

For decades, the whole world had been held hostage by the USA weaponizing its US$ hegemony. Now, with BRICS, the game is changing. The USA can continue to create more opportunities for countries to shy away from using the US$, which is of no benefit to itself. Trying to invoke secondary sanctions is another nail in its US$ hegemony coffin. It is going to backfire badly.
