“Champions of the people.”

Yeah, and they want to serve and protect humanity by putting them in digital chains. The concept is sold as “Technological Progress”.

I have pointed out the connections for years now. I am realizing the the truth of the situation is just completely beyond their level of understanding.

Even if the rich and powerful make it to their survival bunkers, they will need a small army to remain safe

That's all well and good as long as the small army doesn't decide that the rich and powerful aren't needed.

“The US Government and Tech Companies will tell us that China, Russia, and other competitors were using AI to destroy us, therefore we need to use AI to destroy them first.”

And that is the bait hanging on the hook. And the brainwashing is working very well because of the mass ignorance. “We got to have a better playbook than the other team”. When the global franchise actually owns the whole sport and ALL the teams.

Garbage in, garbage out. Yesterday, someone reminded people not to automatically use AI to do home canning or you might end up dead. A while back, a lawyer tried to use precedents given by ChatGPT until the judge called him on it. Imagine getting sentenced to prison because of that stupidity. And now it is able to make you think Trump said this or that which could so easily turn the election (again) and start wars.

exactly, obviously I’ve never been in a true SHTF situation, one can only imagine that loyal goes out the window and is replaced by survival and all the billions these people have now will be worthless.

“They are hedged against SHTF by buying survival bunkers in NZ, Hawaii for Zuck, Idaho, Montana, and so on.”

No, they’re not hedged. They become targets.

Kaddhafi, then the richest man in the world in 2011, built survival bunkers, had an elite praetorian guard and hired a mercenary army to protect him. His life ended after Libyans found him hiding in a sewer pipe.

“The people who want massive depopulation (looking at you Bill Gates) would actively seek to find ways to screw up the entire civilization.”

It is not just Bill Gates and the left. Right now they are putting the depopulation system in place and will use Healthcare AI to do it. Palantir has joined with TeleHealth to implement an extermination board. The Health insurance companies are already doing it, just wait until the government gets full control of it to make the decisions.

“Best Practices For AI In Health Insurance Claims Adjudication And Decision-Making

Health insurance companies increasingly use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML; a branch of AI) tools—often developed, trained, and tested with real-world data—to accelerate claims, coverage, and prior authorization decisions. Unfortunately, too little is known about these algorithms’ underlying data, development, testing, and performance to judge their reliability and ability to promote equitable care delivery.

Several news reports emerged in 2023 highlighting large-scale, potentially inappropriate denials of health care claims and prior authorizations. For instance, an ongoing investigation by ProPublica and the Capital Forum reported that in 2022, Cigna—a health insurance provider that covers or administers health care plans for 18 million people—used an AI technology called PxDx to deny or reject more than 300,000 claims for services or care that clinicians considered medically necessary. Cigna’s medical directors were supposed to review each case individually before approving the algorithm’s decisions, but they instead approved those decisions in batches, spending a mere 1.2 seconds on each case. In response, the US House Committee on Energy and Commerce and several state and federal regulators directly questioned Cigna’s practices in using PxDx.

Last year, the American Medical Association called for regulatory guardrails against health insurance companies using AI to hasten patient claims adjudication and prior authorization decisions. Certain state regulations require insurers to conduct a thorough, fair, and objective investigation of claims they receive. Initiatives to improve the use of AI/ML in society at the federal level have also emerged, including the “Executive Order on the Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence” and action by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. Also, the Artificial Intelligence Code of Conduct project of the National Academy of Medicine endeavors to produce “a guiding framework to ensure that AI algorithms and their application in health, health care, and biomedical science perform accurately, safely, reliably, and ethically in the service of better health for all.”

But what are they doing instead? They are going to DEREGULATE and give AI tech complete blanket legal immunity across the board in the BBB... It is absolutely insane to give them this completely unfettered immunity.

Maybe we could replace some lawyers, judges, and politicians.

There were many episodes of Star Trek in the 60s that were about men being replaced by machines, how dangerous machines were, etc. One even had an advanced AI being used to control the ship through a war game to show how good it was but because it's training data (a guys mind, in this case) was insane it killed a couple of other ships.

Clearly the threat of automation replacing people was a big issue societally then, which seems to be never mentioned. But it was back in the '80s with movies like "Gung Ho" about the Japanese buying factories in the USA and automating all the jobs away. In the 90s it was the internet that was going to make our jobs all expendable.

Maybe this time it's actually for real, all our jobs will become unnecessary and nothing new will come. But I doubt it.

In the end Mutually Assured Destruction causes the extinction the human race only not in the way that was first predicted.

And how do you have an arms limitation treaty when it is the private sector creating these things?
