The Merger That Needed A War-Oracle (Larry Ellison) is using Grok for our Medicare data (substack.com)

Oracle Corporation quietly published a blog post announcing that the U.S. government had authorized it to run generative AI on federal government data. That means pattern recognition, automated data analysis, and decision-making tools now approved to operate on your Medicare records and military systems, cleared at the highest civilian and Department of Defense security levels. (And yes, Oracle also just took over the infrastructure running your Medicaid and ACA data — that happened this week too, and we’ll get there.)

The AI running on the classified side is Grok, built by Elon Musk’s xAI, hosted on Larry Ellison’s cloud, processing Top Secret American intelligence data. That went live today. While you were watching Tehran.

I wish to dine on Larry Ellison's liver. Preferably while it is still attached. That should convey the feeling of being an average citizen in the US.

Almost. I'm just afraid I'd contract some sort of lifelong or deadly communicable diseases.
