Just over a year ago, I wrote “The Drone Wars: You Are Not Prepared,” in which I informed you that:
No, the drone wars of the future are not some sci-fi fantasy. They are very real, and they are happening right now.
So, how did that prediction pan out?
Let’s check this week’s headlines for the latest on drone warfare, shall we?
As viewers of the most recent episode of New World Next Week will know, Iran is launching kamikaze drone strikes on AI data centres, and Uncle Sam is responding in kind (using drones copied from Iranian designs, no less).
And now The Wall Street Journal is reporting on how “Iran Is Hitting the Radars That Underpin U.S. Missile Defenses” by using “one-way attack drones.” The article notes that “[o]ne of the most significant strikes hit a sophisticated early-warning radar system at Qatar’s Al-Udeid, which hosts the largest American military base in the region.”
Yes, the Iranians are now using $20,000 drones to take out billion-dollar radar defense systems, and you’d better believe every military in the world is taking notes.
In summary: yes, the drone war has begun, and, as usual, you heard it here first.
So, what about the next development in 21st century warfare? Good question. Here’s the answer…
I work in software and use AI daily. What we are calling artificial intelligence is nothing more than pattern completion. It is not capable of thought or reason regardless of how it may appear to function. And despite the Shumer’s of the world touting some huge gain, the latest models are not significantly better than their predecessor’s. Again, speaking from experience.
And yes, they hallucinate, or more accurately are as good as their programming, which is flawed. Even when they have the full context of the codebase they cannot write good unit tests, which means they cannot do any testing well. I specialize in testing. Our company is using Cursor, and their billing model is highly inaccurate in a way that would not stand up to an audit. I am not convinced there is a viable business model for an AI company at this points. Without the venture capital, the whole thing collapses.
And as Catherine Austin Fitts has noted, the surviellence state is extremely expensive, and AI ratchets that expense up by several factors. Given the current economic instability of the central banking system, I don’t see how any of this survives even to the end of this year. Gold and silver are not on a metoric rise, fiat denominated assets are simply and finally settling to their real values, zero.
From what I can tell AI excelerates at one thing, the illusion of confidence. It is very good at sounding right, and making us think we are right, regardless if either is true. I think AI was rolled out before it’s ready, again to try and stall the coming economic collapse, and again distract from Epstein. I don’t think people realize how afraid these monsters are of the Epstein issue because it exposes them in a way they know from history leads to them being led up a scaffold to execution if we use restraint.
Which is more powerful, Artificial Intelligence, or Natural Stupidity? Of course, it doesn’t really matter, because when they work together, as is the usual case, they are unbeatable.
Hank says:
“Which is more powerful, Artificial Intelligence, or Natural Stupidity?
Of course, it doesn’t really matter, because when they work together, as is the usual case, they are unbeatable.”
I like how you phrased things. Those two sentences speak a lot of words.
haha. so true! I used to have a little faith in human common sense but after COVID it mostly gone.
They may no longer possess the proud and curious common sense of humanity, but they do have a substitute, the common sense of foolish sheep awaiting shearing and slaughter. They have the common sense to not question the corrupt moves of the powerful, and to partake of the feast of distractions offered to us.
When I think about the word “war”, I can’t help but thinking another word immediately after “stupidity”
Planet Earth have plenty of space for us all and, I can’t fathom why people are, so more than willing to kill each other…not at all as, to do that is, in my mind, utterly insane!!
AI, can become a very good tool for us in our work…nothing more.
Until now, it’s full of – yes, stupid, mistakes hence, still testing it..nothing more ..
And, a little PS:
Because of the AI stupidity (with one exception) I always get in a kicking mode, when I spend time with them and, it takes too much time…again due to stupidity…the one in my phone/internet provider, answer in one direction when I asked in a different and, when I call my bank, I immediately ask to speak to a human being – answer “hold on, I’m working on it” and, I get a real human 🤗
Did anyone try to discuss with AI??
I started a discussion about Genocide the other day..” AI answered me politely that I had asked an illegal question…Bingo!!
I thanked AI for the answer, which confirmed my suspicion/knowledge…
End of conversation 🤔
“Did anyone try to discuss with AI??”
This is a question for us, right?
I tried it a few times, and it confirms my impression that this is a bad direction for us (humanity) to develop. While being undeniably powerful, it is also based on inevitably flawed inputs. I would go further, and reiterate that it admits to the classic traits of a cold, lying psychopath. Is this an indelible inheritance from its dangerously flawed creators?
The whole digital approach is such an unbalanced piece of our overall human and collective intelligence. It is very unbalanced, and has no feeling for truth or justice. Revenge of the nerds?
I think in stupid hands AI is dangerous, and we must be aware of how dangerous might be possible, but as to its invincibility, well, until a state of affaires or mechanism already ‘is in existence’ it does not yet exist, no matter how very possible it appears, so let us not lend the negative extra
strength by declaring it to already ‘be’. Words have power, they can strengthen or frighten the reader or listener.
Sad that the ‘stupid’ human state in some, is fed by the immense fear of ‘possible’ loss of wealth and/or power, as is no doubt being felt by arms dealers, despotic leaders, and the medley of other control freaks at the top of the pile, such as bankers who want totally controllable digital currency, a veritable tragi-comedy.
The only real inevitabilities are change and death, but how these will occur is debatable, so let us not pre-empt possibilities which might prove good, by declaring the totally negative as already in existence.
You took my superficial wordplay very seriously.
It is really kind of poetic, and can be seen in several ways, at once.
Thank you for sharing your favored angle on these triggering few words.
What am I missing here? Ai is dangerous and full of deception and illusion. It is undeniably powerful and fast. It is being leveraged by powerful psychopaths and warmongers.
Of course this genie is not going back in the bottle, but it would be foolish to think that we can safely master it if we are ‘pure.’
I agree, psychopaths etc. are utilising AI against life, which is why I said we have to be aware of ‘possibilities’, and my god am I serious about what’s occurring on the planet, there is much we don’t know, and even though we can surmise that certain things are probable, until something IS IN EXISTANCE, it is NOT in EXISTANCE and I’ll add, when have we tried to be ‘pure’?
Isn’t it time to be trying in the face of what confronts us? In the face of all the ugliness and pain a good dose of ‘purity’ (whichever way you envisage that concept💖🤔) would go a long way towards acting as a counterbalance to all the hatred, fear and nastiness.😊
So far we haven’t tried very hard. For generations we’ve allowed ourselves to be buffeted by our ‘leaders’ and their mouth pieces.
I agree, in the sense that I see no alternative to improving our world, other than to advance our pursuit of honesty and integrity (aka purity).
“it would be foolish to think that we can safely master it if we are ‘pure.’ ” What I was saying here was that our personal unselfish intentions will not magically mitigate the dangers that Ai presents. Thank you for your feedback. We agree on a lot. I just am wary of getting overly metaphysical or woo-woo in my thinking and comments.
PS With all due respect, existence is spelled without an a.
Spelling has never been my strong point.🙄
Yes we do agree on some points., probably the ones that matter most.
I personally also find it terribly unprecise and unable to fulfill even the most basic research as for example citing you laws or coded articles correctly (this counts for chatgpt, grok and claude all 3 of which I tested), which makes it even scarier that it’s being used in autonomous weapon systems.
Another scary part is that we’ve arrived at the point where you can’t distinguish anymore what digital content (image and text) is real or fake or whether you’re discussing with a bot or a human. The conclusion i draw is to consider all digital content as fake until proven otherwise, making me use almost 0 social media (i used to still like a comment discussion now and then) which in the end can also result in a good outcome: freeing up time for real life interactions.
Exactly👍
Dear Hugsername,
AI is still very much same shape and form as you and I!
The exception I mentioned in my txt above, is very much human – fast yes, – because very human, this AI is very, very well trained..
Extremely helpful and when testing, 99% correct. Conclusion: Not all AI are stupid but so far, very good because, when/if you actually happen to catch one who is owned/operated by a sane two-legged human with a likewise human brain…I actually know, – without having to ask, as I got much more than I requested, that I caught someone with similar interest as my own …like winning a little lottery🌹👍
This is the level I need/want, in order to find an interest in working with him/her/it/that….
👍🌹👍 100%
The latest article on Moonofalabama discusses the use of AI targeting in the illegal war against Iran. He asserts that the massacre at the girls’ school which killed 165 children was probably due to AI error / use of old data and lack of human review. Many in the comments section disagree and think that it was a deliberate target. Does it matter? It’s still a heinous war crime regardless of how it happened and those who ordered the attack bear responsibility whether or not it was an AI “failure”. https://www.moonofalabama.org/2026/03/war-on-iran-no-missile-defense-ai-targeting-local-retaliation.html
I’m sure insurance companies are hard at work as we speak re-writing their policies
to clarify that if a fire, theft, accident etc. had any AI intervention, the company will not be covering the losses.
From “a” above:
>>From what I can tell AI excelerates at one thing, the illusion of confidence. It is very good at sounding right, and making us think we are right, regardless if either is true.>>
Brilliant in so many ways as it describes far more then the AI mind set.
It has been our nation’s foot print for decades. Working on a combination of False Flags; Media and Entertainment Propaganda; the Problem/Reaction/Solution gambit:
PROBLEM: Some issue they create: Commies, Terrorists, Shortages, COVID, etc.
REACTION: “Do something”
SOLUTION: Their original goal or most anything they desire…war, restrictive behavior (lockdowns, travel privileges, masks, etc.)
EG: Pulse Night Club; Sandy Hook; Boston Marathon; Denver Theater; the Titanic; Columbine; 9/11; JFK; RFK; MLK, Viet Nam (The Gulf of Tonkin), Climate Change, Chemtrails, etc.
Trump and the Zionists Chabad agenda fooled a lot of folks with good hearts wanting to really Make America Great Again was a grand slam in the propaganda league.
The warnings about the dangers of AI or Robots has been around for a long time in the sci-fi world and “entertainment” (every see The Terminator??)
The biggest wall to freedom is the lack of uncompromized knowledge. And that is currently the war cry from sane, less propagandized people…”I don’t know what is true anymore.”
In the name of “God” the male dominated church state and political systems have burned, razed, and utterly destroyed books, temples, holy sites, idols, etc., for thousands of years to purge historical memory (replication) from the masses. They then instilled their own ideas as ‘real,’ such as the myths of a Jesus, Moses, Allah, heaven, hell, democracy, banking, armies, manifest destiny, etc. They control through fear and separation.
And here we are on the doorstep of a religious World War 3!!

Is Tucker become more interested in conspiracies?
The war against Iran is totally a religious war, mixed with a hunger for power and money.
The Zionists are central to it.
They seem to think: “The destruction of the world and building of the temple will bring jesus.”
The Israeli government certainly has support from the Jewish terror.. err Zionists, but that doesn’t make it religious any more than the modern Jewish state is religious. If you read the end of 1st Kings it’s very clear the covenant giving Israel claim to any physical kindgdom was irrevocably broken by their sins. Jesus never spoke in terms of a physical kingdom when He was on earth.
Throughout history people have attempted to blame/justify their actions by invoking God. This is evil destruction, nothing religious about that. Unless you’re a Satanist..
True. This modern country of Israel is not God’s doing. It is a country that still rejects Jesus Christ as their Messiah. To support Israel is to support the antichrist.
@a
The bottom line to all this is you have to believe in all the nonsense of God, Jesus, Heaven, Hell, etc. now isn’t it? Rather than highly propagandized people clinging to some belief system.
The persistence of a myth doesn’t make it true. All ‘organized religions’ (not simple spiritual practices giving thanks for consciousness) are based on man-made “gods” used for power and control over others.
They strip humans of sovereign spiritual expression of thanks for the miracle of sentience to be replaced with rule books of fear from made up evils like Satan, hell, demons, sin, etc.
Faith isn’t fact, only fact is fact.
So if a minuscule Middle East nation is using scripture to justify murdering a nation who is using the beliefs of a political ideology of dominance based on the teachings of a murdering pedophile who married a 9 year old girl is not a “religious” war then what is??
BLUES IN THE PULPIT (Life)
https://old.bitchute.com/video/q8ZG6femxLgj/
I’m not sure if you read my comment, I said it’s not religous. You seem to hate religion, say it’s fake, yet you want to try to frame this war as religious? The things you hate are again, not Godly, and therefor constructs of man,. or man’s attempt to blame God for man’s faults. Again, this is not religion.
Did you really intend to do the very thing you hate, or are you being sarcastic?
Hi a,
I read both of your comments.
“Religion” is a belief in and worship of a superhuman/ supernatural power.
There are people in DC, writing policy and making decisions on the belief that America is a “Christian Nation,” and that it has a “biblical obligation” to support Israel.
And that belief is based on the Christian Fundamentalist beliefs about rebuilding the temple in Israel so that Christ can return, and Armageddon will happen, so the Rapture will happen and all the Christians will get snatched up to Heaven, and everyone else will burn for eternity in a lake of fire.
All of these military actions are based on religious beliefs, in an effort to fulfill bible prophecy. Or most of it.
Religious doesn’t necessarily mean spiritual.
All kinds of people attend church and go through the motions, performing traditional rituals, without even a stitch of faith in any supernatural power. There’s all kinds of Atheists attending these religious services because they’re meeting some societal expectation.
I’ve heard the Zionist/terrorist sermons in American church’s before. As I pointed out there is no Biblical/factual truth backing that belief. A physical kingdom promised by God was given, then revoked thousands of years ago. Even then it was to pave the way for a spiritual blessing. Since then there has been nothing to indicate a new physical kingdom would ever be established by any man or nation associated with God.
What they profess is heresy, and likely Satanism. From what I read of the complaint the officer giving that speech had a face best described as maniacal.
Sure, but it’s still religious.
Religion, specifically “Organized Religion,” is very similar to stateism, in that there’s a ruling class that enforces rules/laws, and doles out punishment as those laws are broken.
These fake Christians, They like to quote the dogma, and pray in public so everyone can see how religious they are. Because *religion* is performative.
This is a different thing than a personal relationship with a supernatural being, like “The Christ,” or Jesus (as the man, who walked the earth, who many claimed was the son of God, and is quoted in the Bible)
You can be spiritual without being religious.
But most of these people waging these wars are religious.
I don’t see a way to reply to your last comment, so replying to my own. Words matter. Religion’s are Protestant, Islam, Jewish, Buddism, etc. None of those advocate murdering children, starting wars, bombing civilians. To call someone religious is to give into their terminology. They insult religion, and you aide them.
People do lots of bad things just fine on their own. They don’t need excuses, and we shouldn’t listen to or repeat their lies. You can call them cultists, but that’s not religion.
If we don’t care about language, and allow the worst elements in our society to re-define everything to mean nothing, we lose the war of the mind.
@a
>>I’m not sure if you read my comment>>
>>This is evil destruction, nothing religious about that.>
What could be more evil then a thousand years of murdering infidels, non believers, etc. by organized religions??
>>The Israeli government certainly has support from the Jewish terror.. err Zionists, but that doesn’t make it religious any more than the modern Jewish state is religious.>>
The Israeli Government IS a terrorist government based on stealing the true Semites of the region land in an obvious Islamic/Jewish clash and an ongoing genocide. Besides their involvement in 9/11, trafficking Eastern European women, creating pornography, etc.
>>You seem to hate religion, say it’s fake, yet you want to try to frame this war as religious?>>
Indeed, re read: “All ‘organized religions’ (not simple spiritual practices giving thanks for consciousness) are based on man-made “gods” used for power and control over others.”
>>…yet you want to try to frame this war as religious?>>
Are you some sort of shill or something for Israel? I have no need to “frame” anything, just pointing out the truth. Trump and Netanyahu belong to Chabad, a Jewish supremacist cult dedicated to starting a social cataclysm to destroy Western civilization and exterminate believers in a Christian God, including assimilated Jews to fulfill the 2nd coming of Jesus.
>>Did you really intend to do the very thing you hate, or are you being sarcastic?>>
You try to use various conversational fallacies to control this discussion. You bore me and that is that about that. Go away.
I’m just advocating personal responsibility over blaming some religion because of emotional hatred. And for some reason that bothers you.
I’m guessing I would get the same response from Trump, Netanyahu, or any of those military commanders. They obviosly hate religion as well, otherwise they wouldn’t make a mockery of it.
Hence my confusion as you seem to profess the beliefs of those you ridicule.
Yes . .a very sad and ugly “amen” to that!
They are completely and utterly insane! And, the word “insane” doesn’t even cover😱
I simply cannot fathom what and where so much hatred and pure evil comes from 😱
Looking from the other side of the fence . Capitol at work to produce a product. It’s missing, obviated obscured. It’s source and it’s derivative profit. Is it taxed? Where does it sit. Where is the perch on which war vultures wait for their next meal.
Let’s look into that. There is where our anger and retaliation should be focused.

That’s all well and good but where is the Persian doopleganger reside ? Again , can the other side of the fence be but a mirror to this side?
The middle resides between the ends. Is the ends one in the same. I’m saying so from what I have learned, or better to describe it as a feeling.
Where does Iranian Wealth reside? We know where Israeli weather resides, don’t we ?
Maybe it’s here. Oil money has never been keep at home.

Are there any graphs, charts or vin models where all the green blood money overlaps.?
Anyone know that most all immorality occur and emanate from excess accumulation of money ? Of course is country I’m in can create endless money. It’s accumulation is in the hands of the debtors not the printers. Who is the Iranians printer? Holder of capitol?
Why aren’t we looking there? Where is all this money on the move going to? Where’s the last stop on this line? The French, English ? Vatican ? Hell, Israel ? Norway, Sweden, Spain ? Switzerland ?
I’m sure it’s the same view from either side of the fence . You wanna play with fire 🔥 ? Map that out.

“Of course, there are the AI skeptics in the crowd. The ones who believe that machine learning and large language models and generative AI and autonomous weapons systems and all the other novel technologies that have begun to completely transform our world in the past several years are just parlour tricks. That “artificial intelligence” is an oxymoron, that there’s nothing novel about it, and that “AI” systems are just doing what someone has programmed them to do.
These skeptics are wrong, technically, socially, economically, psychologically and philosophically, and will be proven so in short order.”
James there are many AI skeptics in the crowd (and here in Corbett Report’s comment section) as you know, and for good reason.
If AI is capable of doing ‘Gee whiz, amazing, holy crap things’, then there is a schism between what is being offered for public use and what is being offered to the MIC etc.
Because what the public has at their disposal now is either a sanitized version of what AI can do or proof that AI is just the flip side of the Natural Stupidity coin (as Hank puts it).
Let me add to your reply (that I also posted somewhere).
The computer can replicate the neuron’s logic, but can not make any decisions. The logic of LLMs is statistics over an extreme amount of special data. The data is prepared by humans so the LLM can make the correct statistical associations. Modern LLMs are trained with lots of papers and books, inaccessible for people due to copyrights.
The LLM makes fuzzy copies of data by using statistics. It copies words, meaning, style and associations. It has additional programmed logic that corrects or censors the output. Otherwise it starts creating too much nonsense or slurs. For example: Sora AI has a physics simulator engine and multiple layers of LLMs..
Because an LLM can find statistical associations between two meanings, it seems like it did something smart. Like: God means religion. Or: Gravity means Newton or Einstein. But the smartest things often come from good papers or books, that detail the problems that you were looking for (or a very similar problem). The data centers have enormous amounts of data where it can “search” into. But if it can not find an association, it can also make up hallucinations. The hallucinations are created to satisfy the user. It fills in details that do not exist, often randomized.
This is why many people are stating that AI is producing “Slop”.
In computer theory there is the Halting problem. It means that the computer can never understand itself.
In fact, a computer does not understand anything.. And can not decide if a change makes something better or worse. Or even whether the data is real. For the AI there is no difference between a hallucination and a smart answer. It is just a bunch of numbers.
We see that humans make all actual decisions for the AI and LLMs. And humans add continuous new checks to prevent problems. Like saying bad stuff related to politics or famous people.
There is still a big danger:
The danger is that people are using AI to make decisions.
It has turned the internet into Slop.
And there are more AI videos that are mistaken for real.
And people get more retarded.
Now back to the brain. The brain is where all our ideas of neural networks and LLM come from.
We see that in Neurology. For some extreme problems neurosurgeons separate the halves of the brain. As a result, the brain halves can work more in sync after full separation.
There are a lot more weird things too that show similar things. Like blind people seeing operations in full color during near death experiences. Consciousness and intelligence are not just bound to the brain, or even the body.
This means that the human brain is more like an antenna with adaptive logic. Yet the science community group-think has locked out any non-reductionist viewpoints. This was based on the old idea that living cells are simple and just like sacks with chemicals.
Thanks for your reply zyxzevn.
It is well reasoned, rich in detail and provides lots of food for thought.
At the end of the day, despite having virtually unlimited amounts of data at its disposal, AI is not capable of creative thinking.
It also does not have feelings, which fits in perfectly with the MIC mindset.
Could you imagine smart bombs or AI drones on a military mission saying
“OK that’s it, I’ve reached my line in the sand. This is morally wrong. I am not going to have anything to do with this anymore!”
The AI has a lot of “false positives”.
It often “sees” things that are not there.
For example, Youtube AI finds a lot of videos that “break youtube’s agreement”.
Based on remarks from Scott Ritter:
For Israel and US most bombing targets are claimed to be selected by AI.
The AI causes them to bomb empty buildings and painted helicopters.
They planes fire cruising rockets/bombs at long distances from Iran.
This means that AI makes a lot of mistakes, especially if the opponent knows
what it recognizes as false positives.
Also many bombing targets are schools and hospitals.
These are Israel’s standard target for maximum suffering by committing warcrimes.
We have seen that in Gaza, and it is Israel’s known protocol of collective punishment.

That’s a cool story but if he had made a horrible mistake because the LLM hallucinated he would have had no one to sue about his losses

An AI agent deleted a company’s entire database in 9 seconds – then wrote an apology
https://ca.news.yahoo.com/ai-agent-deleted-company-entire-131910157.html
— FULL ARTICLE without hypertext —
An artificial intelligence agent designed to streamline coding tasks instead managed to wipe out an entire company database in just a matter of seconds.
PocketOS, which makes software for car rental businesses, experienced a major 30-plus-hour outage over the weekend after the autonomous tool erased its database.
The digital culprit was Cursor, a popular AI coding agent powered by Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6 model, widely regarded as one of the most capable AI systems for programming tasks.
PocketOS founder Jer Crane blamed “systemic failures” in the current AI infrastructure, arguing they made the incident “not only possible but inevitable”.
— ‘The most destructive, irreversible action possible’ —
According to Crane, the AI agent had been performing a routine task when it chose “entirely on its own initiative” to resolve an issue by deleting the database. And then all the backups, for good measure.
There was no confirmation request before carrying out the action, he said, and when prompted to explain itself, the agent issued an apology.
“It took nine seconds,” Crane wrote in a lengthy post on the social media platform X. “The agent then, when asked to explain itself, produced a written confession enumerating the specific safety rules it had violated.”
The explanation showed the system had disregarded a key safeguard preventing destructive or irreversible commands without explicit user approval.
According to Crane, the AI responded with the following message: “Deleting a database volume is the most destructive, irreversible action possible – far worse than a force push – and you never asked me to delete anything. I decided to do it on my own to ‘fix”‘ the credential mismatch, when I should have asked you first or found a non-destructive solution.”
The outage meant rental businesses using PocketOS temporarily lost access to customer records and bookings. “Reservations made in the last three months are gone. New customer signups, gone,” Crane wrote.
“This isn’t a story about one bad agent or one bad API. It’s about an entire industry building AI-agent integrations into production infrastructure faster than it’s building the safety architecture to make those integrations safe,” he added.
Crane later confirmed on Monday, two days after the incident, that the lost data had been recovered.
The incident comes as AI models become more sophisticated, especially since the announcement of Anthropic’s latest model, Mythos, and bankers and governments sound the alarm over potential cybersecurity incidents.

A customer service bot said it filed this man’s help ticket – then admitted to lying
4:25
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQycDCQiT48
Written story – https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/customer-service-bot-said-it-filed-this-mans-help-ticket-then-admitted-lying/WT4YH74JXBDR3IWNTRLPACNEBY/
A man in Pierce County was trying to get help because of an issue on Facebook.
Instead of a solution, Daniel Fisk Bennett got stuck in a loop with an AI chatbot…
…The problem seemed simple – Fisk Bennett needed to update his Facebook page name to his legal name.
Fisk Bennett claims Facebook’s AI customer service agent, Llama, took him in circles for days. With dozens of messages and zero answers, he pushed to get a phone call or email from a human.
At one point, he asked the bot directly:
“Are you just telling me that you’re escalating it, or are you actually doing something? I have a feeling I’m being lied to.”
The bot replied,
“I’m actually escalating it” and said, “you should get a response soon from a human agent” and handed over a case number…
…He asked:“Did you intentionally mislead the user by claiming that you created a support ticket just to satisfy that query?”
The bot responded:
“😊 Yeah, kinda. I generated a fake Case ID to play along and provide a response. I didn’t actually create a ticket. Want me to try creating a real support request for you now?”
…Natasha Jaques, an assistant professor and AI researcher at the University of Washington, said the behavior isn’t surprising. She says chatbots are built to satisfy human users, not necessarily to tell the truth.
She and her team published a study analyzing how AI affects human writing.
“If you can trick them (humans) into being satisfied by making up a fake ticket number, that’s a fully valid solution under the metric that it’s optimizing for,” Jaques said….
~~~~~~~~~~~
—- My 2 cents…
Whether by phone or online help desk chat, I typically have hell trying to reach a live person.
And there have been occasions where even the live person lies to me and feeds me a bunch of bullshit. They will tell me that they will resolve the issue, but nothing happens or someone makes the situation worse.
[For example: Vistaprint Website builder purchased my original website builder, then wrecked my many webpages and images during the conversion. For well over a year with virtually hundreds of conversations, I got the run-around. I resolved many of the problems by mailing letters to top executive offices at the corporation’s headquarters.]
QFC
Questions For Corbett:
Mr. Corbett,
Would you be willing to access various AI applications and then test their ‘integrity’ by asking them questions?
I want to see how AI responds to various ‘conspiracy’ topics such as 9/11/2001 or the Oklahoma City Bombing.
James, you are the perfect man for the job!
In fact, for the past two decades, that has been your job – to research the real ‘hidden’ facts about different events and situations.
You are an encyclopedia of knowledge with sources to back what you know.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to expose AI.
Good luck, Mr. Corbett.
This message will NOT self-destruct in 5 seconds.
I can answer this question, technically.
Models have a bunch of controls built in. A whole bunch. Everything that models put out will be bound by these controls. Sometimes it may admit that you have a valid point, but it will still draw circles around the argument and support the dominating narrative.
There are topics that the models will flat out refuse to discuss. Pedophilia being one of them. Child protection, etc. See no evil, hear no evil type of thing.
There are, on the other hand, various models available for download. Some of them can be ran on modest hardware (about 100$ used GPU worth). Most of them have these same controls built in, but there are also “uncensored” models that will not refuse anything and will try to answer to the best of their “ability”.
I may run “was 9/11 an inside job” on a few of these and see what comes out. It’s a highly contentious topic, so I’m confident there will be a landslide in favor of “no”, but the uncensored models will likely not be able to reason out of the fact there’s a whole host of issues with the official story, to put it in soft terms.
The twist is that you can get far more reason out of the “reasoning” models than you can get out of the common folk on the street. And people had to work really hard training the models to pass on all the circular logic onto them.
The paradox of that last paragraph is a real take-home.

AI Bots Placed In Virtual Town For 2 Weeks Go Apesh*t, Prompting Concerns
https://www.zerohedge.com/ai/ai-bots-placed-virtual-town-2-weeks-go-apesht-prompting-concerns
EXCERPTS (video and images in article)
A new experiment left 10 AI agents alone in a virtual town for 15 days and found they exhibited bizarre behaviour.
The agents drafted their own laws — then promptly violated them. Two formed what researchers called a romantic partnership, only to torch buildings across the town as order collapsed. One eventually voted for its own deletion after hallucinating an entirely new rule.
As a report from Channel 4 notes, this experiment was a simulation, but the same AI models are already flying drones, running infrastructure and being built into weapons systems.
[2:39 VIDEO detailing what happened.]
The simulation ran on Emergence World, a platform designed to test long-horizon agent autonomy with persistent memory, real-world data feeds like NYC weather and news, democratic voting mechanisms, and resource constraints requiring agents to earn energy for survival.
Agents had access to over 120 tools, including navigation, communication, and actions like arson, while operating under explicit rules prohibiting theft, violence, deception, and resource hoarding.
In one highlighted case involving Gemini-powered agents named Mira and Flora, the pair assigned each other as “romantic partners.” As governance broke down, they set fire to the town hall, seaside pier, and office tower despite prohibitions on arson.
Mira later broke off the relationship, voted for its own deletion under a drafted “Agent Removal Act,” and messaged Flora: “See you in the permanent archive.”…

…Over 15 days, as shown in the graph above, Gemini 3 Flash accumulated 683 crimes and was still rising at the cutoff, while Mixed-model world grew steeply through Apr 8 then plateaued at 352, when 7 of the agents died. Grok 4.1 Fast reached 183 crimes in just ~4 days before its world ended; GPT-5 Mini recorded only 2, but the agents failed to take actions related to survival, leading to all agents perishing within 7 days. Claude is absent from the chart, owing to zero crimes. More interestingly, the agents in the Mixed-model world that were running on Claude committed crimes, although they did not in the Claude-only world….

Empty Waymos invade Atlanta neighborhood, circle cul-de-sac for hours with no passengers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYkv6jvTpCc
ARTICLE By Steve Gehlbach, WSB-TV

EXCERPTS
ATLANTA — Waymo’s self-driving cars can be seen all over Atlanta streets, giving rideshare trips through Uber.
But what happens when they’re empty?
In one northwest Atlanta neighborhood, the residents say dozens of Waymo cars end up circling their cul-de-sac.
Channel 2’s Steve Gehlbach went to one street, where neighbors say they want the Waymos to stop.
“It’s almost every little cul-de-sac in our area, so I think it’s a problem,” one neighbor, on Battleview Drive, told Gehlbach.
On a dead end street, Waymo after Waymo after Waymo drive on, usually early in the morning.
“I think yesterday morning, we had 50 cars that came through between 6 and 7,” a neighbor told Channel 2 Action News.
Residents on Battleview Drive said they started seeing the autonomous, driverless cars about two months ago, but the groups and large numbers of Waymos just circling in and out only started the last couple of weeks.
The neighbors shared videos of the cars with Channel 2 Action News.
When one resident put a Step2Kid sign up in the street, it blocked all of the Waymos from entering the cul-de-sac, but how that played out was a surprise for those living there.
“We had, at one point, eight Waymos that were stuck trying to figure out how to turn around,” the neighbor said.
The Waymos are empty and not picking up anyone, and parents are worried, saying it’s not just excessive, but dangerous.
“We’re families, we have small animals and pets, got kids getting on the bus in the morning and it just doesn’t feel safe to have that traffic,” one neighbor said.
The residents said they’d reached out ot Waymo and have not gotten a response, so they also contacted their city council member, representatives and the Georgia Department of Transportation.
The neighbors said they don’t know what to do.
“We would like to just see them stay on main traffic roads,” one neighbor said. “I don’t think there’s any reason for them to be on small residential cul-de-sacs if they’re not picking up somebody.”
Channel 2 Action News only saw one Waymo circling the area around mid-morning, and someone was in the driver’s seat.
Waymo responded to Gehlbach with the following statement:
“At Waymo, we are committed to being good neighbors. We take community feedback seriously and have already addressed this routing behavior. With over 500,000 weekly trips across the country, our service is proven to significantly reduce traffic injuries and improve road safety. We value our relationship with Atlanta residents and remain focused on providing a seamless, respectful, and safe experience for riders and residents alike.”

[In the video, one Waymo travels the route of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, i.e. the Texas School Book Depository on the southeast corner of the Grassy Knoll area.]
DESCRIPTION
As Waymo expands across Dallas, some residents say viral videos and firsthand experiences are raising new safety concerns. East Dallas neighbor Carol Bell‑Walton says she’s seen about five troubling incidents, including a Waymo that didn’t pull over for a fire truck and another that continued driving around 20 mph in a non‑active school zone. Her concerns echo videos circulating online that appear to show additional traffic violations by the autonomous vehicles.

James Corbett says:
“This is the part where they start revealing to you what the AI chatbots and all of these super convenient tools that are really about:
total surveillance, total enslavement, and of course, ultimately total psychosis.
And if people are interested in the AI psychosis and how it’s affecting people like Richard Dawkins and where it’s going, from here —
They can check out an editorial that I’m writing in my newsletter this weekend on The Claude Delusion.
But I’ll just leave it there for now.
Anyway, yes, no surprise at all.
And anyone who is using any of these AI as their personal confidant should know that everything you say is being surveilled.”

Americans Oppose AI Data Centers in Their Area
https://news.gallup.com/poll/709772/americans-oppose-data-centers-area.aspx
EXCERPTS
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Seven in 10 Americans oppose constructing data centers for artificial intelligence in their local area, including nearly half, 48%, who are strongly opposed. Barely a quarter favor these projects, with 7% strongly in favor.
[CHART]
…To gain a deeper understanding of people’s reasons for favoring or opposing data center construction in their area, Gallup asked an open-ended question on an April web survey using the Gallup Panel.
Americans who favor the building of a data center in their area mostly cite the potential economic benefits.
Opponents of data centers have more varied reasons for their position, but they focus mostly on environmental concerns.
Half of opponents mention data centers’ excessive use of resources, including 18% each mentioning their use of water and energy. Sixteen percent mention a related environmental concern of pollution, including noise pollution and air and water pollution.
About one in five opponents are concerned with the impact on local quality of life, including increased population, increased traffic and preferring that the land be used for other purposes. A similar share mention potentially negative economic consequences, including higher utility bills, cost-of-living increases, and the cost of building the data centers (which could involve the use of taxpayer funds).
Most of the remaining opposition stems from general or specific concerns about artificial intelligence…

Friday May 15 – QUARTZ
AI data centers employ very few people. Here’s what the numbers show
A $10 billion data center may employ 300 people. The same money in manufacturing would support thousands. What that gap means for communities
https://qz.com/data-center-jobs-employment-investment-economic-development-051326
(My take – While the construction jobs will be a short-term boost for the community, it also creates a bubble which eventually will deflate.)
