The IMA/#SolutionsWatch panel is back for another all-star debate/discussion/free-for-all. This time, we tackle the question of AI: can it be used as a tool or should it be shunned altogether? Where and how do you draw the line in the sand? And what’s the AI hubbub all about, anyway? Find out in this fascinating conversation.

What happened with Derrick there in the beginning? He wasn’t introduced and then just left?
It was a real honor to participate, for a long-form read of my take on these important questions I would encourage you to read my essay: https://libresolutions.network/articles/ai-regret/
Hi Gabriel, really gotta get you back on my podcast to talk about AI soon if you are willing. I’ve been writing a lot on the subject recently on my stack. Canada is positioning itself to be a global leader (top 3) in this space along with the U.S. and China. I have yet to read your article ‘We will come to regret our every use of AI’ but am looking forward to doing so; perhaps this weekend. I have very mixed thoughts and emotions about it (see my other comment in this post which I will be posting shortly).
O:55 i dont agree with anwar that kyc’ing AI will no longer allow people to use it anonymously. Just like with crypto, kyc will be bypassed. you already now have access to hundreds of ai models completely anonymously, paying with monero and i see no way for the overlords to stop this
Not using claude coz it’s used by them in warcrimes is the same as not using guns coz they’re used by them in warcrimes. I’m with kit on this, tools are not good or bad and anyway all the purists claiming to not use it still use it unwittingly every day in their work.
Agreed. Anthropic is pure evil. See my article ‘In Memoriam’ which is the result of their AI targeting the girls school in Iran. URL: https://fournier.substack.com/p/in-memoriam
This Independent Media Alliance (IMA) panel’s “Drawing the AI Line in the Sand” discussion was super important for all of us. It not only repeats the message, but it reaffirms, helps to reinforce where Corbett Report members stand on the AI issue.
In the real world, often we are marginalized by the AI-Tech-loving culture because we avoid aspects of the system. The group, the IMA panel helped to re-establish that we are with like-minded people. It is a shot in the arm for us, and also helps to shape a liberty-loving narrative to the broader public.
PS
It was nice to see a non-AI Whitney Webb.

Ya know, food packages have labels like “non-GMO” or “Organic”.
It’d be nice to have a “certified by IMA” to be “non-AI”.
Decades ago when I was mailing out tons of 9/11 Truth literature, I made up a return address name:
“SEI – Scientists and Engineers for Integrity”. I still have sheets of those address stickers buried in an old file.
It is okay and also good marketing and also creative to mock-up names and labels and stuff.
Okay now this is gonna be a bit personal.
Firstly, James, I think you are not being realistic about AI.
I totally understand your approach to not using AI at all, but this is a mistake in my opinion. I don’t know you that well. But if I recall (please correct me if I’m wrong), I think that you are a father. I am also a father of an 8-year old. And in his school (a private one in Thailand) they do start to use AI in their middle school section and beyong. My point being here that it is inevitable. AI WILL be used in schools and education whether you like it or not. BTW, I worked 36 years in the education sector (23, as a teacher). So, my point here is that you’d better understand the nature of this AI beast. If you are not (intimately), you will NOT adequately understand how it will be affecting your child and his/her behaviour and use of the tech. Think Sun Tzu’s Art of War.
I myself have mixed feelings, thoughts, and emotions about AI. I originally studied in Computer Science as a teen (in the mid-1980s in Canada). I also took AI courses in university over 20 years ago. So, I’m not unfamiliar with the subject.
In 2022, I changed my vocation from teacher to independent investigative journalist (see https://fournier.substack.com/p/in-search-of-truth). I’ve written many articles on globalism and the technocratic takeover. Recently, I wrote some articles about AI, AI Data Centres, and the like.
I’ve exposed how Canada is becoming the 2nd largest AI force in the world (after the US and even before China) due to its recent moves and how it is the absolute best location in the world for AI Data Centres (unfortunately!). You can see my last 3 articles and most recent podcast on this topic.
I have come to realise, listening to this particular AI conversation (and the previous one you had with my good friend Johnny Vedmore) that this AI dilemma is a real dichotomy. Damn if you do, damn if you don’t (use it) situation.
Personally, I’ve recently been using AI. I personally chose to use DeepSeek (perhaps subconsciously for my affection for China since I lived there from 2008 to 2021 and very much dislike the U.S. since it has been totally taken over by the Zionists for decades. Regardless, I have been using it for research to help me – not to write portions of my articles since I write those with my very own words (and sarcasm), but to SAVE TIME researching certain things. Let me give you a very practical and useful EXAMPLE. I my most recent post, I wanted to find a link/web page that showed a listing of all (100+) Canadian government departments. This would have taken me forever to find using general search engines such as Goolge or Brave or Presearch. But DeepSeek fond two sites in seconds and this saved me time (here is the link for your reference: https://www.canada.ca/en/government/dept.html).
Let me continue in a separate reply since your character limit is preventing me from expressing my full thought….
Folks AI is a demonic imposition on the ORGANIC expression of the inherent infintie human!
In the following link The Three Levels of Imposition Upon Humanity written by George Kavassilas the second level describes the core aspect of AIs imposition on the organic expression of the human race…
Level Two – Exo-Political – The Scalpel
• AI/TI Technological Intelligence God, along with its multidimensional imperial techno-structure and assimilated extraterrestrial and interdimensional peoples, races and civilizations, star nations and even some galactic realms along with governed councils, federations and all associated super-technologies spawned from these reality structures.
• Intended reality replication and subsequent assimilation of Human Consciousness via augmentation and migration into the technological singularity through purposeful implementation of specific technologies furthering planetary domination and control of our evolutionary path, with a resulting degree of Human harvest.
• An attempt of systematic and precise severing from our roots and from our foundation that is our natural individual Consciousness, Spirit and Soul, and from our natural collective Consciousness, Spirit and Soul of our Humanity as a whole, and the natural Consciousness, Spirit and Soul of our Mother Planet – and therefore, all the way through to the Natural Intelligence, Consciousness, Spirit, and Soul of Universal Creation.
• Dissemination of atheistic and materialistic ideology through its religion of Scientism, and is seemingly in opposition to Level Three.

My daughter is an artist and is very frustrated with AI images. Somehow it being ‘okay’ to use this only because you are not an artist… that would be the same argument someone would use that isn’t a ‘writer’
I gave AI direct links to articles and asked it to cite them in APA 7th edition format. All of them were wrong, and often fabricated. I do not trust AI at all after this. And it is quite easy to poison AI right now.
