Holy wall of text batman. I speed-read this, and think I got the gist of it. I'm skeptical on the capacity of such a computer. What type of storage medium is all this captured on? High capacity storage, afaik, is all on old-school hard disks, which are pretty limited in their speed for parsing the entire digital internet regarding a situation/problem being calculated. An "omniscient ai" would need quick access to a lot of data, but maybe that's possible in an effective way. (not real-time)
Then there's the quantum computer power needed to run a general intelligence (and the actual invention/discovery of one). Black projects don't have super-advanced technology in every field of science necessary for a project. But I guess if we're ok with us having far-out tinfoil technology (ufo's etc) then I just shrug and say sure, could be?
I'm pretty skeptical on the project lookingglass type stuff and a hyper-intelligent AI way beyond our leading researchers have made public is not really something I consider very often, but it's a shoe-in for something like an omniscience problem so who knows. I doubt we'll know the answer.
The funding, hardware, storage, bandwidth and AI complexity are next-gen stuff needed for this, that's for sure. They probably have a delivery of network-grade platter hard drives being delivered, installed and parsed every few hours. And a network that mirrors the Internet itself, to feed the beast. Also, a fabrication of high-quality quantum computer chips that are significantly above the current power level.
Thinking about this more, you could potentially have an AI you feed the internet into and have it train over a long time. (years) This would solve the storage problem, and needing fast access to all the ever-happened-in-existence Internet stuff. Perhaps connection to a NxA data system or something, but that would be fairly slow and not "omniscent" in a real-time way. Dunno, perhaps someone has done something like this. For sure groups are trying. Then all you need is high-power quantum supercomputer and a working general intelligence. (which afik doesn't exist in civilian life) Oh, and for it to be accurate, not just clever.

Yeah that would give the money for something like that. Curious stuff.
But let's go on the thought expirament that we can't yet accomplish the speeds needed for real time or maybe even near real time predictions. I would argue that requisite isn't needed for this tool to be successful. It does require however that you are in posession of the ONLY tool like this. If your opponent is in posession of a tool similar to than one just plays out the moves and victory would come to whomever had the most advanced tool. But if your opponent does not have one than time or speed is no object to the extent that you are able to prolong opponents end goal long enough to accomplish your win.
In theory this program would have already ran most possible scenarios and each particular scenarios decison tree into many moves and counter moves ahead. Likely wouldn't be as accurate but maybe still accurate enough for owner to make small pivots and adjustments for unexpected minor changes or data points within that scenario.
The owner would first initiate the tipping of the domino and it's reaction in a direction that's desirable then feed scenario through the AI loop and may get 3 possible outcomes and all moves within each branch. Owner waits on the counter move in order to know which one of the 3 scenarios the "game" will follow.
Again if 'time' is not an issue than every amalgamation of possible scenarios can in theory be ran through the loop with the owners intended 'end' as the goal. Owner just waits for unsuspecting opponent to take them down that path.
Anyway man. Just thinking out loud here.
Definitely an interesting topic, and not so far-fetched to require a significant suspension of disbelief.
I don't think a system that couldn't "probe the internet, know all the things and have a pulse on the global impact" would be fair to be said to be near-omniscient. I definitely could consider it being an expert on societal responses, though. Given enough meaningful data, sufficient quantum processing power and a working general intelligence that's properly trained (probably years and years) to be accurate.
You're right that could be very powerful, especially if your moves are slow enough, and you can game out enough possible winning scenarios to have a good end result.
That would be quite the Whopper you'd have there, and that's most certainly something I could imagine a particular type of branch would find useful for all kinds of planning scenarios.
The impacts of AI are terrifying, and wondrous.
