It's right there in the opening paragraph of OPs post. It's the people who controlled the machines that could not be trusted. We're not worried so much about about AI going rogue. We're worried because people who control it have aleady gone rogue. It is too powerful and dangerous a tool to be trusted in the hands of primates.

The creation of a Silica Animus is also a terrible crime under Imperial Law by the decree of the Emperor of Mankind Himself as stated in the Treaty of Mars which united the ancient Mechanicum of Mars with the Imperium of Terra in 739.M30.

Propaganda only works when you're telling people what they want to hear, and nobody wants to hear about climate change. For everything that we stand for and believe in to hold merit climate change needs to be a farce.

I want to say we can't have it both ways, but actually we can. It just means our grandchildren can't have it any way.

This past spring I had some flooding in my basement, some blankets got soaked so I hung them up to dry. One of the blankets was an old Hudson's Bay wool blanket, and after 5 minutes 99% of the moisture drained out into a puddle under the blanket. That's the awesomeness of wool, no synthetic fibre can do that.
