Centralized advanced computing seen as threat to digital freedom

Original: “The centralization of advanced computing, which includes # AI , powerful new # chips , and # quantumcomputing , is one

A new commentary from the Linux Professional Institute argues that the concentration of advanced computing power — artificial intelligence, powerful new chips and quantum computing — among a small number of companies is emerging as a major threat to digital freedom. Author Andrew Oram launched the first part of a series examining how this centralization could erode user control and open standards in technology.

Why now: The argument taps ongoing debate about how few large firms now control AI and next-generation computing power.
