![]() Everybody shake a leg because it’s about to go down. There are no significant threats to the United States.Īt DEFCON 4, while we’re still at peace something looks to be a little threatening so out of an abundance of caution we’re going to step up security and intelligence procedures - but no worries, everything’s okay.Īt DEFCON 3, okay there’s a threat looming on the horizon and while everything’s fine (for now) we’re going to put our bomber forces on alert and get them scrambled and in the air in 15 minutes.Īt DECON 2, yup - something’s up and now we want all active duty personnel to mobilize and deploy in six hours or less. The DEFON system was implemented in November of 1959 after the construction of NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense Command, the people in charge of monitoring and intercepting external threats to the United States) with five (5) levels of Defense Ready Condition that goes a little something like this:Īt DEFCON 5, we are at peace. In fact, I praise this move as it was a sensible, prudent thing to do.įor those of you - mostly my readers in the United Kingdom - who don’t understand our defense levels, a little history is in order.ĭEFCON is an acronym for Defense Ready Condition, DEFCON is what the Pentagon uses to indicate the level of threats the country faces from other nations, which then determines readiness for any potential response and I’ve been told you lot on the other side of pond don’t actually have something like this. I don’t begrudge my President or my Pentagon going to DEFCON 2 after Vladimir Putin decided he was going to put his nuclear forces on alert. Well, I noticed because it’s something of a hobby of mine to keep track of our military (being a former Navy man) and it’s readiness levels.īasically, it lets me know what kind of day I’m going to have.īut, again, hardly anybody noticed this monumental event with the exception of a political website in New Zealand. In other words in addition to being able to sell Tesla vehicles, Dojo could see Tesla become an AI-as-a-service provider to automakers that need FSD capabilities.In fact, we were exactly one DEFCON level away from World War III. "We expect recent charging station cooperation will extend into FSD licensing (discussions ongoing) and operating system licensing." "With significantly increased computing power and faster processing speeds (latency) Tesla's path to monetizing vehicle software can materialize sooner," the Morgan Stanley research note continued. Power grids tremble as electric vehicle growth set to accelerate 19% next year.Microsoft's AI investments skyrocketed in 2022 – and so did its water consumption. ![]() Google thinks $20M ought to be enough to figure out how or if AI can be used responsibly.GenAI proponents exploring its use alongside infrastructure-as-code.Tesla CEO Elon Musk claimed in July this year that the complete Dojo supercomputing cluster could exceed 100 exaFLOPS once built. As Tesla explained at 2022’s Hot Chips conference, six Dojo training tiles are networked together to form the V1 system, which is supposedly capable of one exaFLOPS of BF16 compute. Twentyfive of these chips are meshed in a 5x5 grid using TSMC's chip-on-wafer-on-substrate (CoWoS) packaging tech to form the Dojo training tile. Dojo’s key component is the D1 AI accelerator processor, which features 354 custom CPU cores.
