<p>Nuclear weapons have rarely been used kinetically.  Their real force multiplier is the fear.<p>A.I. is being used by so many people for so many diabolical things, hidden, unknown things that we may never fully understand it's purpose. But that doesn't mean it's purpose won't destroy us in the end.<p>The expression "Drinking the Koolaid" is used to explain the Jonestown mass suicide.  It is an information hazard, aka, a cult that created the end result: 900 people drinking poisoned flavoraid.  That's just one example of a human caused information hazard.  What happens when someone with similar thinking applies that to A.I.?  Will we even be able to sleuth out who did it?</p>

<p>Not in that order: first denial, because like nicotine industry, they KNEW IT WAS ADDICTIVE but got everyone hooked anyway.  The Fear is only because it might (but probably won't) get regulated heavily.  They are predators, and the only way to fix this is to give them hard, long jail time.  Fines won't do shit.</p>

<p>I find this very suspect that a biomarker for schizophrenia is found before "black" gene/biomarker is found.  It sounds like a setup for mass gaslighting and institutionalization by big pharma.  Society is always looking for an easy way to institutionalize people it doesn't agree with.  This is the big tech version.</p>

<p>With Trump's tough talk on treason for reporting ill of the Epstein War, I encourage everyone to watch the PBS documentary Jailed for their Words about the Montana Sedition Act of 1918, which was a significant extension of the federal Espionage Act and was repealed in 1921. This is the world Trump and the Fascist Billionaires want: fear, coercion, subjugation.<p><a href="https://www.pbs.org/show/jailed-for-their-words/" rel="nofollow">https://www.pbs.org/show/jailed-for-their-words/</a></p>

<p>For years, the Federal government was paying telephone companies for their phone records.  Not the calls themselves, just the metadata.  I'm sure the capital driven companies get paid for providing the data, as a service fee.</p>

<p>Right on point.  That is the true purpose of this 'new' push into A.I.  Human moderators sometimes realize the censorship they are doing is wrong, and will slow walk or blatantly ignore censorship orders.  A.I. will diligently delete anything it's told too.<p>But the real risk is that they can use it to upscale the Cambridge Analytica personality profiles for everyone, and create custom agents for every target that feeds them whatever content they need too manipulate there thinking and ultimately behavior.  AKA MkUltra mind control.</p>

<p>The public got a peek at it with Cambridge Analytica creating hundreds of thousands of personality profiles, they then used to create Trump's MAGA army of flying monkeys.  The Democrats could have done something about it, and made it illegal, but instead they just decided to build there own armies of flying monkeys.  Why?  Because both sides are bought and paid for by the same rich parasites trying to reprogram us.</p>
