Oracle’s Larry Ellison Wants To ‘Unify’ All Of America’s Data And DNA Into AI Datacenters To Be Studied And Mitigate People’s Lives In A Dystopian Nightmare

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.”

Within that reply, Ellison also specified not just compiling American data but of everyone’s around the world, citing examples of the UAE being “incredibly rich in [population] data,” and the “NHS in the U.K. has an incredible amount of population data.”

Other countries are doing something similar already. Saudi Arabia in fact is funding a number of smart city initiatives, including the construction of “The Line,” a 170-kilometer (105-mile) long car-free city; the Oxagon industrial center that is being used to construct a floating city on water called NEOM, in collaboration with and with additional funding from BlackRock; while also working on the the Saudi Genome Program, “to construct a pioneering database that will not only capture the genetic blueprint of Saudi society but also revolutionize healthcare by enabling personalized medicine, driving down healthcare costs, and uplifting the overall quality of life.”

But Ellison went on to clarify that many of these AI models are already being trained “primarily by data that’s publicly available on the internet,” including climate data. While health data isn’t so available online, according to Ellison, obtaining that information is “very precious, very, very precious,” so obtaining and pooling it all together into artificial superintelligence will “improve population health and get better outcomes for individual citizens.”

Since all this data is “fragmented” across thousands of unique databases around the world, the Oracle CTO told Blair we need to “pipe” the data from 3,000 different repositories into one single massive database.

“You can pipe this data from these 3,000 separate data sources into a single unified database, and that’s what we need to do.

“We need to layer on top of all of this fragmented data that we have about all of this information we have about our country, and we need to take that and unify that into a single database, so when we ask questions the data model has all the information it needs to answer the question, discover the insight and recommend an action.”

However, after being queried by Blair, Ellison did acknowledge that a hurdle will be to get nations to share their data and have it stored in other countries.

But, coming full circle in addressing Blair’s questions about digital IDs – something Blair is a massive proponent of, calling them the “great enabler” – Ellison did say that one of the latest protections that Oracle is implementing in all their systems is that this year will be the final year their systems use a password: everything will be biometric, facial and voice recognition, and perhaps even placing your “finger on the return key and we know we’re absolutely certain it’s you.” He argued passwords are too easy to steal and this new security roadblock will aid in protecting these datacenters holding the data.

“We’re using the latest security technology, and it is going to be biometrics assisted by AI to make sure that you are in fact Tony Blair,” Ellison remarked.

Blair provided his own commentary, giving a nod to the future of governance run by AI, saying that “the hardest thing is to get the people in government to understand just how much in government is going to change, how you might reimagine the way that government functions […].”

In conclusion to Ellison’s statements at the forum, the Oracle CTO said,

“I think this will make for a happier citizenry and dramatically improve the quality of our lives of all of our citizens.”

Blair also finished by saying, “There’s an amazing opportunity to reimagine the state, the way that government functions and the services that it can provide for its citizens.”

Oracle Wants To Spy On You, Even In The Bathroom

A so-called “happier citizenry” is fairly objectionable depending on who you ask, but Ellison clearly has his own definition of it.

Last year, during an Oracle-sponsored Q&A, Ellison revealed that mass-AI surveillance will put citizens on their “best behavior.”

Ellison’s “dear friend” Elon Musk has contracted Oracle to run X’s Grok AI infrastructure. He said at the time, “If Elon and [Microsoft’s] Satya [Nadella] want to pick us, that’s a good sign – we have tech that’s valuable and differentiated,” Ellison said. “One of the ideal uses of that differentiated offering? Maximizing AI’s public security capabilities.”

The fourth richest man in the world then went on to describe a new world where everything will be monitored and spied on by AI. He began by giving an example of how schools will be able to recognize a trespasser or school shooter.

He described how the AI will be spying in the bathroom, and users will have to request that the camera stop spying as people use the facilities, though Ellison admits that the cameras are still always running and can be accessed via court order.

“The camera is always on, you don’t turn it on and off. The way you turn it on – you can’t turn it off you [but you are] going to the bathroom – ‘Oracle, um, I need two minutes to take a bathroom break and we’ll turn it off.

“The truth is we don’t really turn it off. What we do is we record it so no one can see it, but no one can get into that recording without a court order, so you get the privacy you requested, but if you get a court order – a judge can look at that, this so-called bathroom break.”

So, in the world that Ellison is describing, not even a bathroom break is sacred in schools or anywhere anymore. He continued by describing school lunches:

“I’m going to lunch with my friends. ‘Oracle, I need an hour of privacy with lunch with my friends.’ God bless, we won’t listen in, unless there’s a court order.

“We transmit the video back to headquarters, so headquarters and AI is constantly monitoring the video.”

The police, who are also under the watchful eye of Oracle, will also be forced to be on good behavior, as police won’t even possess the ability to turn off the AI surveillance for themselves.

Police will be “on TV at the at headquarters, everyone would see it, your body cams will be transmitting that [footage].

“The police will be on their best behavior because we’re constantly watching and recording everything that’s going on. […] “Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times. If there’s a problem, AI will report that problem to the appropriate person.”

Ordinary citizens will also be on their “best behavior,” according to Ellison:

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

The Oracle CTO mentioned that cameras in cars and police cars will also be outfitted with this AI to be watched at all times, and drones can be deployed much sooner than police could to do the surveillance work at “shopping centers,” Ellison described. “There are so many opportunities to exploit AI,” he said.

Around the same time Ellison made those remarks, Microsoft and BlackRock partnered to invest $100 billion into new AI datacenters, the types of ones Ellison is looking to build. CNBC reported: “We are committed to ensuring AI helps advance innovation and drives growth across every sector of the economy,” said Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, in a statement. He said the initiative brings “together financial and industry leaders to build the infrastructure of the future and power it in a sustainable way.”

Last year, The WinePress noted how now-former Hoosier Governor Eric Holcomb and other state officials cut deals with Meta, Amazon, Google and Microsoft, along with the cryptocurrency mining firm AboutBit, to build datacenters and be a leading state for crypto mining.

Ellison, without actually saying the words, essentially described a social credit system.

The U.S. government is also apparently in favor of Ellison’s efforts. The day after President Donald Trump was inaugurated, Trump announced Project Stargate, allocating $500 billion over the next four years to SoftBank, Sam Altman’s Open AI, and none other than Oracle, to build AI infrastructure across the United States, among other things, such as Ellison’s desire to make mRNA-based cancer vaccines tailored to the patient and specific cancer.

 reported on Trump’s remarks, who told the press: “I’m going to help a lot through emergency declarations,” he said. “Because we have an emergency and we need a lot of help. We need energy generation and they will build their own.”

He claimed Stargate will build the infrastructure to power the “next generation of AI and this will include data centers. Massive facilities…These are big beautiful buildings.” “This is to me a very big deal. It could lead to something that could be the biggest of all.”
