“Citizens will be on their best behavior because we’re constantly recording and reporting,” Ellison said.

Larry Ellison, the fourth richest man in the world and founder and CTO of the tech giant Oracle, says he wants to collect every single piece of American’s private and personal data, including DNA records, into his company’s AI datacenters to be studied, which can then know everything about us and therefore make our lives easier, describing this as the “missing link.”

Ellison is listed by Investopedia as the fourth wealthiest man in the world ($197 billion net worth). Oracle, world headquartered in Austin, Texas, “is the world’s second-largest software company, providing a wide variety of cloud computing programs as well as Java and Linux code and the Oracle Exadata computing platform. Oracle has acquired numerous large companies over its history, such as Sun Microsystems and Cerner.” Several years after stepping down as Oracle CEO, in 2018 Ellison sat on the board for Elon Musk’s Tesla until 2022. Investopedia adds, “Ellison has focused his philanthropy on medical research. In 2016, he gave $200 million to the University of Southern California for a new cancer research center.“

Ellison shared his vision at this year’s World Government Summit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The conversation was moderated by former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair in a segment titled, “Reimagining Technology for Government.”

In his opening remarks addressing the future of AI in relation to governance, Ellison told the audience that we are on the cusp of “artificial superintelligence,” and to quote his “dear friend Elon Musk: I’m not looking forward to being a house cat.” In other words, AI will be so incredibly intelligent and powerful it will render us mostly redundant. Continuing, Ellison said, “This next generation of AI is going to reason so much faster, discover insights so much faster, whether it’s being able to diagnose cancer in early stages, or design therapies, custom design vaccines for those cancers, custom made for your genomics and your specific tumor antigens.”

Furthermore, Ellison told Blair that Oracle is gathering satellite imagery from “California to Kenya,” allowing the company to “predict crop yields” and then able to tell farmers if they are likely to exceed and or fail to meet expectations. Oracle is currently helping to design a new era of gene-edited seeds and crops that will allow farmers to grow crops without fertilizer or other things typically necessary to raise a crop.

Blair later asked Ellison what governments should do in terms of “digital infrastructure” and “digital ID data centers.” According to Ellison, in order to do that and so much more, “Oracle is building a 2.2GW datacenter that costs between $50 and $100 billion dollars to build, because these models are so expensive, you won’t build your own as a rule. There’ll be a handful of these models.”

But directly answering Blair’s question, Ellison endorsed compiling everyone’s private and personal data, including DNA, and letting these datacenters learn every last detail they can about the country and its people.

“Question is how do you take advantage of these incredible AI models?

“The first thing a country needs to do is to unify all of their data so it can be consumed and used by the AI model.

“I want to ask questions about my country, what’s going on in my country? What’s happening to my farmers? I need to give it my climate data. Now it probably has your climate data already, but I need to know exactly what crops are growing and which farms [for] me to predict the output.

“I have to take satellite images, I have to take those satellite images from my country and feed that into a database that is accessible by the AI model. I have to tell the AI model as much about my country as I can. You tell part of the story with these satellite models, you get a huge amount of information. You tell it where roads are, where borders are, where utilities are, so you need to provide a map of your country, for the farms, and all of the utility infrastructure, and your borders, all of that you have to provide.

“If you want to improve population health, you have to take all of your healthcare data, your diagnostic data, your electronic health records, your genomic data.

“[…] We have to take all of this data we have in our country and move it into a single, if you will, unified data platform so we [can] provide context. When we want to ask questions we’ve provided that AI model with all the data they need to understand our country, so that’s the big step, that’s kind of the missing link.

“We need to unify all of the national data, put it into a database where it’s easily consumable by the AI model, and then ask whatever question you like.”
