AI Thread Summary
Wireless devices, such as remote control cars operating at high frequencies like 100 GHz, can experience interference when multiple devices broadcast on similar frequencies. However, modern devices are often programmed to recognize and respond only to specific signals from their intended remotes, minimizing interference from unauthorized sources. Older radio control models required distinct frequency bands to operate within the same area, while contemporary systems using 2.4 GHz employ advanced "spread spectrum" techniques, specifically Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS), to further reduce interference and enhance communication reliability. Understanding these technologies is crucial for improving device performance and ensuring secure operation in environments with multiple wireless devices.

Let's say I have a wireless device, one that works on radio frequencies, let's say it's a remote control car that operates on 100ghz for example's sake. If I were to try operating this car with its intended remote, but then have a friend broadcast similar frequencies, I would obviously get some interference. But with many things like this, They can be programmed to only respond to a certain source, in essence, the car would be able to tell commands from its intended remote part from those coming from the unauthorized one. If someone is able to point me in the right direction in finding out how this happens I would greatly appreciate it.

In the case of older radio control model transmitters and receivers (50mhz, 72mhz), a separate band of frequency had to be used for each model that was being operated within the same area (about a 3 mile radius). In the case of current radio control transmitters and receivers (2.4ghz), there are two types of "spread spectrum" methods used to avoid interference, wiki articles:

This week, I saw a documentary done by the French called Les sacrifiés de l'IA, which was presented by a Canadian show Enquête. If you understand French I recommend it. Very eye-opening. I found a similar documentary in English called The Human Cost of AI: Data workers in the Global South. There is also an interview with Milagros Miceli (appearing in both documentaries) on Youtube: I also found a powerpoint presentation by the economist Uma Rani (appearing in the French documentary), AI...
