if i wanted to create an all-knowing ai or a god-like entity, here's what i would do. first, i would make everyone in the world stay inside their homes, isolated from each other. to achieve this, i would need the cooperation of governments worldwide, all under the guise of safety. obviously, i would need to release a "dangerous" virus that forces people to quarantine in their homes. (2020)

this situation would make everyone shift their usual in-person activities to the internet.

conversations, work meetings, and social interactions would all happen via video chats or phone calls. people would feel that their only creative outlet to express their creativity would be through videos, written essays, and other digital content, all of which would be stored on servers. i would maintain this state for about one year. during this time, i would aggressively collect all data and human interactions. this period would be crucial for learning about their behaviors, language, and knowledge, as everyone would be communicating electronically and by nature would be documented.

after capturing a year of this "control" data set, i would allow people to resume their regular activities.

i would then spend the next two years sorting through the massive amounts of data collected. the new electronic habits formed during the quarantine would result in even more data being uploaded to my servers on a routine basis. powered by the human ego, this content (training data set) would be free of charge to me. i just need to allow free unlimited hosting.

by (2022), i would update all my privacy policies to reflect new data usage protocols. (the same way meta, reddit, youtube, twitter, etc all did.) this would allow me to use everything i've collected over the past years to program a highly advanced ai. this ai would become a crucial tool for productivity and staying ahead in various fields, particularly knowledge-intensive jobs. attracting the most competent users.

i would offer both a free and a paid plan for this tool. i would have access to all user communications and data and i would set this toggle on by default. i would then continue to refine my ai with this input, enabling it to self-improve and attract even more skilled individuals to integrate it into their workflows. this would create a continuous cycle of learning and enhancement.

and that is how i would create the most powerful supercomputer capable of teaching itself
