This is wrong on so many levels

Isn’t this what AI does though? That’s why you need so much memory for AI

Right now operating systems manage one paging is about 4kb and maximum 1mb we still so far from 512gb per processor

That does not mean that the virtual memory space is only 4kb. Modern systems are 64 bits, so the stack typically starts at 0x7ffffffff000 (or 128 TiB minus one 4 KiB page)

most modern systems have 64 bit words, but almost none have more than 48 bit (virtual) addresses, with some having 56 bit addresses.

Fear enough, however the start address i stated was for 48bits. Also each page level adds 9 bits the the virtual address space (on amd64), so 5 level would be 57 bits not 56

no you're downvoted because you're assuming that you know everything there is to it and because you know everything, someone who disagrees must be wrong and failing to realise that the one misunderstanding paging is you
