I had to look up Ghibli. Dont think i have seen an anime film.

I’ve only seen still-lifes of Ghibli. They are just sickeningly sweet, not at all like humans even in good times, especially during workplace injuries.

Ghibli will not replace us. Here is a pretty safe bet. if AI begins to send us to a dystopian hell the Jews will be…

Enco,

I had to look up Ghibli. Dont think i have seen an anime film.

Ghibli will not replace us. Here is a pretty safe bet. if AI begins to send us to a dystopian hell the Jews will be blamed.

Reg,

Curious to know how you see AI’s impact on us in near and long term.

Well, I seen a T-shirt promoting workplace safety whose imprint was created by AI. It showed a big-eyed Ghibli person smiling in obliviousness as they slipped on a wet floor, destined for a head concussion with said floor.

In an AI-produced promo on the break r…[Read more]

Great video on data poisoning as a line of defense against data scraping. (I say this as one of millions of signatories of John Perry Barlow’s “A Declaration of the Indepence of Cyberspace.”). Combined with hostile takeovers by shareholders who don’t want suits from creators eating into profits, this is a good strategy.

Now aren’t you glad…[Read more]

Reg,

Curious to know how you see AI’s impact on us in near and long term.

Well, there’s no harm in learning from AI how it cracked a proof.

Human: “Our time of 40 math professors spent fourteen months checking the proof.”

Lean: “I spent 14 seconds.”

Human: “Yes, Lean is correct.”

OpenAI just solved a 90 year old math problem in 88 hours. Here.

For me, the remarkable part is not the solution, but the ability of how 10,000 concurrent AI agents were split into groups, each exploring different variants and approaches and then sharing everything. Basically, the AI agents cross checked each others findings. I suspect their…[Read more]

An interesting piece of archeology to add to the ideosphere of the Middle East:

Jewish presence predates Islam in Arabia

The looney “Free Palestine” crowd are now going to “just ask the questions”:…[Read more]

Iran’s respite from attacking Israel may not simply be or be at all about not wanting their tops to die. I just wonder if it is true whether they plan to invade again.

Hamas has “achieved” nothing but repression and destruction and the only way to “Free Palestine” is to free it from Hamas as well as their Palestinian Authority rival Fatah.

One can rightly criticize Bibi’s Intel for their failure of imagination, as well as Trump for his “Board of Peace” which is just his attempt to make the Israel-Hamas…[Read more]

I always found it idiotic that so many Western ‘activists’ continue treating Hamas as an emblem of liberation. They bite down on the bait every time in order to confirm their biases. I am yet to meet one of them that has any real understanding of the history of the area. Maybe change does come from within. As “Bibi” said after October 7th, “Hamas…[Read more]

BTW Enco i was ridiculing my own confirmation bias. It is nearly impossible to kill all of the time. We are human.

Nothing per se wrong with confirmation bias as long as you acknowledge it and keeping it in perspective.

My confirmation bias is assuring that I have coordinates on Earth as a living, rational, free, flourishing human…[Read more]

Enco,

I was asking AI whether there was any intelligence. Not restricted to US intelligence. It seems AI interpreted my question that way or CHOSE to limit its answer that way. It would be nails in the coffin if we had knowledge of the documents/conversations among the high mucky much of terrorists. (Recently read about library of…[Read more]

Jake:

Recall though, that U.S. Intelligence Community, didn’t foresee either the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993 or 9/11/2001, (not to mention Tiananmen Square, the collapse of the Soviet Union, the fall of The Berlin Wall, the end of Communism in the Eastern Bloc, the end of Apartheid in South Africa, etc. ad nauseum). So again,…[Read more]

Enco,

For the first time i asked AI the following question.

Is there intelligence that Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates are trying to orchestrate major terrorist attacks in USA?

Answer from AI

United States intelligence assessments indicate that the main global core of the Muslim Brotherhood is not currently trying to orchestrate major…[Read more]

Unlike the oblivious writers at Commentary, this writer somewhat gets it:

Arthur Herman
Did America Win the War on Terror?
It depends on where you look.

He does overestimate our foreign prowess against Islamic terrorism, however he does at least acknowledge areas where…[Read more]

Yes, I doubt if Mr. Gray is ever the most colorful actor on the party scene. He probably belongs to some branch of the ‘reality based community’.

Ron Suskind would have really been the life of the party if he’d have just named the name of the one who made the quote, and he would have been really ‘reality based.’
