I heard what google said with respect to AI and search being individually different from each other. This statement would be true if one were interested in keeping SEO and LLMs separate. The problem Google has in making this argument is their increasing use of AI, LLMs in their search results. They are using the same basic argument Microsoft used with Internet Explorer; they were bound together, they were indistinguishable from each other. We could not separate one from the other. Google is making the same basic argument. Microsoft would make the same argument with Copilot as well. But I go back to history, again, where is Internet Explorer today? Where is Microsoft Bob today? If IE were so vital to Windows, if Microsoft Bob was so important to windows and vice versa than why has IE, Edge, Bob not been the strong focus like they were nearly 30 years ago? The last time I checked the internet is just as important now as it was 30 yrs ago. I do not think anyone would consider IE, Microsoft Bob to be a utility essential for being a participant in society. The same cannot be said with respect to the internet.

If Aetherflux is able to build a large number of satellites for beaming energy down to earth, could they be hacked, so a number of them could beam energy down to the same area, making the power density high enough to do serious damage? If so, how would we respond to China launching similar satellites?
