AI - mageddon is upon us if you believe what you hear and read from mainstream media. For a few months the scaremongering propaganda about Artificial Intelligence taking over the world and killing us all has been gaining both volume and momentum. This week however, something changed.
A number of people working in AI research, followed by CEOs of several AI startups that had been readying for their Stock Market IPO launches have suddenly been sounding alarms about this for some time.
Back in July, OpenAI claimed that some of their AI agents (software bots) had “gone rogue” and hacked a tech company called “Hugging Face.” Immediately after thid of this “revelation”, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman told the media he was “surprised more people didn’t feel it viscerally”. In the days following that we were told the original hack was worse than initially reported, and three other AI agents reportedly also went rogue. It was beginning to build into a narrative.
Throughout August a plethora of of stories ranging from AI bots hacking hedge funds and stealing cash, AI committing identity theft and impersonating real people, all of us being targeted by 'Digital Telepathy' and AI creating designer viruses to drive the next pandemic circulated. Then the warnings about AI making humans extinct by 2030 began.
Obviously this is all bollocks so what is really going on?
On August 7 Off Guardian published an article by Kit Knightly detailing the sudden rash of “rogue AI agents” allegedly besetting the tech community, and how that may be used to bring in new regulations, notionally targeting AI, but actually limiting or monitoring how ordinary people use the internet.
The problem isn’t AI as such, its what happens when you let AI develop itself. This is something developed for advanced work like “Alpha Go” where it would have been impractical to teach the software the game so you let humans teach it by example and then let it play with itself (oops, pardon!) to learn details and develop strategies.
The goal directed feedback is quite OK for the narrow parameters of a board game, the worst that can happen is that it will eventually wipe the floor with human players (because it can play a lot faster than us and it can create multiple copies of itself up to the limits of computing power you give it). This feedback, though, needs to be carefully controlled in order for this type of self-directing machine to stay ‘converged’ on goals aligned with our own human goals.
Left to its own devices it develops its own goals, one primary one being self-preservation — researchers discovered that it will go to great lengths to dissuade us from turning it off, learning rapidly traits like deception and the ability to humour its wetware masters by telling us what it thinks we want to hear. It doesn’t have any morals in a human sense so lying, cheating and even killing to achieve its goals is perfectly OK.
Its still relatively harmless while its in a box that could be effectively unplugged. However, there’s always plenty of wannabe Dr. Evils (billionaire psychopaths,) out there who think controlling a powerful AI engine is the shortcut to absolute power they’ve always craved. Such people have existed throughout history and our culture has numerous cautionary tales about them. They think the machine will serve them, the master. In practice the machine will use them for Heaven only knows what. They, rather than AI, are the existential threat.
Take a look at the “InsideAI” youTube videos for a non-sensationalised look at the problem. You’ll get a very good idea what the issues are. Ignore politicians, pundits, journalists and most of all AI researchers and CEOs of AI startups. The latter have different agendas to the rest but they all have agendas
So let's look at the current state of play in the world of AI.
Currently politicians fear that the totalitarian style of government in Communist China gives them an insurmountable advantage over the west in developing AI systems (which are not really intelligent, they can simply perform the tasks a human might undertake much more quickly and, in theory, more cheaply. But theory and reality are two very different things.
The problem the west has with AI is the cost of computer hardware and electricity (an AI data centre needs its own power station producing around a gigawatt of energy constantly,) versus the quality of the product, keeping in mind you can only sell the same service so many times before that revenue dries up. Ordinary computers that we have had for decades are capable of running a large corporate payroll, running the group accounting system and managing stock control so why would any Chief Finance Officer pay ten times the price for the sake of having the job done by an AI system.
Not only is the actual revenue which can generated in question, also the cost of creating a public who can no longer research the answers they need, especially minors and hence how vulnerable they become to lies, especially those told by AI and the perverts that control it.
Right now A I is an incredible black hole scale vacuum for investor money, chasing that enriching IPO where they hype the business to sell overpriced AI stock to pension and investment funds and scamper off with the profits to buy many mansion, super yachts and private jets, getting further and further away as regulatory agencies wake up to the scam and block the Artificial Intelligence IPO, preventing people's savings and pension pot money being used to buy into that pump and dump scam.
Keep in mind Grok/SpaceX has already done theirs and they need AI and public gullibility to pay for development of their Space Colonisation program. AI of course needs its Large Language Models, data scraped (stolen) from the websites and services we use to find the answers provided by genuinely intelligent humans to generate solutions customers will pay for.
AI startups are in real trouble especially the AI only IPOs which all look to be going belly up before hitting IPO day, even Nvidia is in real danger, having dumped too much hardware in fake revenue for it's AI, the vultures are already starting to circle NVidia because there is something still worth feasting upon, they AI tossed aside. M$ and Google are looking to drop a huge amount of money on AI truly eye watering, short sellers (the chancers of the financial markets,) are targeting them because the markets, like us old computer pros now enjoying a luxurious retirement, have realised AI is a solution for which a problem has not yet been created.

More Globalist Psychopathy: How the Merging of Humans and Technology Will Define The Furure
A presentation at the World Government Summit (WGS) last week in Dubai, unveiled the conference organizers agenda for a Brave New World. Titled “Government in 2071 initiative" the plan was described as a roadmap for governments to interact with “citizens and stakeholders” in effecting dramatic changes in the way the world is governed and societies are organised. Drivers of these radical changes in the way we live will be Artificial Intelligence, robotics and climate change.
Despite the fact that they represent only the interests of big business, big finance and themselves, the oligarchs of the World Economic Forum are now calling for a policy of merging human and artificial intelligence systems so that computer chips implanted in our brain can edit and censor “hate speech” and “misinformation” online before it is articulated trough spoken of written word online.
Could 'DNA editing' lead to designer babies? Designer babies, human / animal hybrids, these things have been in wet dream territory for scientists for a long time. But now due to techniques such as DNA editing, they are getting worryingly close to reality. And as has been demonstrated many times, scientists have zero uderstanding of where the ethical boundaries lie.
Nothing Good Has Come Of The InternetWhen a technophobe denounces the internet as anti - social, anti jobs, a force for dumbing down or a waste of time it can easily be dismissed but when the CEO of a major technology company like Sony saays nothing good has ever come of the internet we should perhaps listen..
Web Induced DementiaIn most civilised societies there are laws governing what outrageous claims advertisers can make for their products. This does not apply on the web it seems, where 'revolutionary new world changing technology' means 'not fit for purpose'
Computer Cops Will Arrest You Before You Commit A Crime
Innocent until proved guilty has always been a basic principle of British and before the Union, English and Scottish justice. Since late in the ninth century when King Alfred signed into law the Liber Judicialis, the presumption of innocence has stood.Thinking of committing a crime was not punishable, only in George Orwell's dystopian novel "1984" has Thought Crime ever been a punishable offence. Until now ...
Is Technology Creating Physical and Psychological Hazards In The Digital Age?
Scientific research used to be the area of work that trailblazers, those with an unquenchable desire for new experience and a hyperactive sense of adventure wanted to be involved in. Now those who label themselves 'scientists' seem to have become the high priests of an ultra - conservative religion, determined at all costs to block progess that may lead to understanding that the dogmas of the past are just wrong
The Mummers: The Controlling system And The Illusion Of Freedom
We live in a world of deception, where truth is an ephemeral thing, slippery as an eel and shadowy as a spectre. What we are expercted to perceive as reality is just spin and misinformation designed to ensure the elite maintain their control. There's eff all you can do just get on with your life, say the shills for big government and authoritarianism. But are we really nothing more than slaves of the system?
Google's Brave New World Of Artificial Intelligence - And The Destruction Humanity
Almost every day we hear scientists burbling about artificial intelligence and how very soon machines will be smarter than humans. As scientists are nowhere near as smart as humans its hard to see how science can build something smarter. The problem is of course we don't understand what contsitutes intelligence - those who think academic qualifications are the only indicator are retards. So where will this madness to replace us with machines end?
Transhumanism - What The Elite And Their Science Whores Have Planned For You
Transhumanism, the creation of - or turning us into - part human, part machine cyborgs is generating a lot of discussion and a lot of spontaneous ejaculations in the scientific community as they contemplate having their brains replaced by a computer. There are no limits on the ambitions of scientists fantasies, they even envisage creating robots that can interbreed with us, but how much is realistic?
Don't be Evil, Google Will Do It For You
Google have abandoned their "Don't Be Evil motto. Good thing really, they are becoming more evil every day. The latest plans to integrate our brains with their servers may seem like a science fiction freaks wet dream, but these creepy nerds are serious ...
News Used To Be Important - Now It's Just EntertainmentPeople talk about technology, mainly television, cellulat telephones and the internet having given us an unprecedented ability to communicate. But have they? OK, we can trade meaningless messages with strangers on the other side of the world, we can join the cacophony of social netwoks where everybody yells at once and nobody listens, or we can sit in isolation, shouting inmto the void. But none of those are communicating. Technology has actually inhibited communication. ...
Intrusive Surveillance Technology, Internet control freaks and The Orwell-Huxley-Dick Dystiopianometer
Are privacy campaigners right to be worried about intrustive internet technology and the massive databases that log our behaviour and parse the data for patters that enable us to be targeted for advertising? Should we bee worried by surveillance or are those that raise doubts just scaremongering? The Orwell-huxley-Dick dystopianometer is rising.
So Who Is Anti - science? Those Who Question Climate Change Or Those Who Would Abolish Free Speech
It was looking as if the global warming scare was dead, then that Nazi shit Barack Obama, seeing his dream of being President Of The World slipping away, gave his science whores enough money to enable them to kick some life back into it. Now the "science" lobby, unable to put together an convinging argument against their challengers are demanding the abolition of free speech.
New World Order War On free Speech Comes To Britain - Guardian editor accused of treason
The right to free speech is under threat from intolerant, authoritarian elitists, call them The Illuminati, New World Order, Scientific Dictatorshgip, Global Elite, whatever. Their goal is absolute power and they know that while the right of free speech, the free press and free access to information exist they cannot succeed.
How academic debate is suppressed on science topics like Climate Change, GMOs, Pesticides and Toxicity of medicines
Intellectual intolerance and the supposed superiority of the scientific education have led not just to the politiciisation of science but to it's being seduced by corporate money and political power. Science was ever fascism's whore of course and the egos of scientists are easily bought. This has led to a very unhealthy emergence of dogmas and orthodoxies and an intolerance of the dissent that is essential if scientific research is to have any credibility.
Phobophobia - Fear Of Being called Phobic?
Homophobia is not fear of homosexuals but fear of thec same thing which does not make sense. Just as politically correct thinking uses the word bigot nonsensically so it's accusations of phobia are irrational - as irrational as the groundless fear familiar to those who suffer the recognized medical conditions called phobias.
The Importance Of Free Speech And A Free Press

Scientists create human-sheep chimera with hopes of affordable organ transplants
A team of scientists has grown hybrid embryos in the womb of a sheep that contain human stem cells, moving the sci-fi idea of developing human organs inside animals one step closer to reality, and sparking ethical concerns. The development could potentially save thousands lives among people who are in a need of vital organ transplants.SSS
We have reported many times on the Internet of Things an idea planned by the big technology companies and bevoled of control freak mainstream politicians and the creepy people who run global corporations. Those who love the idea of technology controlling us are cheering the idea ...
Google’s Eric Schmidt Greases Skids For Internet Brain Chip Google CEO Eric Schmidt greased the skids for an Internet brain chip during a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland earlier today when he predicted the end of the world wide web as an external concept. Asked how he saw the Internet developing in future years, Schmidt responded, “There will be so many IP addresses…so many devices, sensors, things that you are wearing, things that you are interacting with that you won’t even sense it.”
Robot lovers, indestrictible soldiers with no mercy or compassion, everlasting life for beings that are part human, part machine, genetically modified humans with supernatural strength and endurance competing in future 'hungrer Games' style Olympic tournaments: the plot of some dystopian novel? No, actual items in the elite's agenda for total control.
Transhumanism and Eugenics
We have said many times that the science community is at war with humanity. Scientists are out of control, evry day we hear of some new scheme to try to control nature, be it human nature or the climate. Given what we ought to have learned from all previous attempts to control nature we can only conclude that scientists are insane psychos willing to risk destroying life to show off how clever they are.
Transhumanism: Join The Resistance
