⚑️Total Information Awareness

In a recent chat on the True Health Report, I dove into the concept of Total Information Awareness. Originally a DARPA project, the idea was to track and simulate global events by integrating vast data sources. We explore how modern AI applications, like Palantir’s systems, reflect that vision, blending public and private data for comprehensive surveillance.
