Well, that's all very idealistic, but it's likely not going to happen.

Israel already used AI to pick bombing sites, those bombs and missiles would have been programmed with altitudes and destinations (armed) then dropped. The pilots only job these days is to avoid interception, fly over the bombing locations, tag the target when acquired, and drop them. Most of this is already done in software.

Eventually humans will leave the loop because unlike self-driving cars, these technologies won't risk the lives of the aggressor's citizens.

If the technology is seen as unstoppable enough, there may be calls for warnings to be given, but I suspect that's all the mercy that will be shown...

... especially if it's a case of a country with automated technologies killing one without or with stochastically meaningless defenses (eg. Defenses that modelling and simulations show won't be able to prevent such attacks).

No, in all likelihood the US will tell the country the attack sites, the country either will or will not have the technical level to prevent an amount of damage, will evacuate all necessary personal, and whoever doesn't get the message or get out in time will be automatically killed.

Where defenses are partially successful, that information will go into the training data for the next model, or upgrade, and the war machine will roll on.

...and the two parties do seem to work together. Also, tech billionaires and their platforms do seem to promote and allow a lot of white supremacist propaganda on their websites.

So a lot of what he writes about seems to have a basis in reality.

What if the human is pulling the trigger to "paint the target" and tag it for hunt and destroy then the drone goes and kills it? Because that's how lots of missles already work. So where's the line?

Capitalism hasn't existed forever, it literally started in the late 1700s during a period called The Industrial revolution, when factory machining started the first cottage industries that pushed out previous modes of hand crafting.

At that point, when machines and cottages to hold them started to be required for mass production and hence competition in the market (pushing out hand crafting as a competitor) CAPITAL became a requirement of mass wealth accumulation... because one needed large sums of Capital to buy the machinery, rent the building, and hire and train the workers to exploit. So it became the limited province of the already well off to do.

That's when Capitalism was born, and why it's named CAPITAL-ism. Because it has Capital requirements if you want to join the Capitalist class. It was created in the British Industrial Revolution.

That you're unaware of this change in the mode of production and what it represents, and believe that "oh Capital has just existed forever" is what some Marxists refer to as being in a state of "false consciousness".

The system wasn't always this way, and doesn't have to necessarily be this way. It's a product of a technological change in the epochs of production.

Meanwhile China is outraged that the US are thinking of banning TikTok.

Oh no, there's no fueling station on the moon. The rocket is being built with such a oversized payload that it needs 15 refueling rockets to be sent up to refuel it just to get one rocket to the moon.

As opposed to the 1970s Appolo missions which took one rocket to get there and back.... Musk is using 15 to get there and back.

Destin from Smarter Everyday gave a speech at NASA about how it's kind of a crazy plan but no one is allowed to criticize it because Musk is so rich and NASA has penned a deal...

... then recently Thundef00t made a video about it that makes it clearer what Destin was saying.

Twitter implosion, no self driving cars, fake Hyperloop, and guess what - he's also responsible for the US space program right now.

He's got 3 billion in US tax dollars an blows up spaceship like crazy.

His plan is to have a space base on the moon and refuel rockets in space.

Couldn't this also incentivise China to consider invading Taiwan more seriously.

Edit: apparently people don't see anyways that the US denying chips to China could be an extra incentive for them invading Taiwan.

Society should serve human nature, human nature shouldn't change to serve society.

People suicide where they feel alienated, and like they're not served by the social functions and contracts that are in place.

Basically where they don't like the life that's on offer.

The Borg's first move is often to just beam drones over and start trying to assimilate people and technology.

I'd love to see the Jedi response to this. Who wins, borg personal modulating shields or lightsabers and force push?

...and what happens to the force when a Jedi is assimilated? Does the borg colective suddenly find out they had a lot of high midichlorian count drones in storage?

Probably because Putin just found out the population sucks at flying drones.

Sky News and anyone working for them can eat a bullet.

So the main task would be writing the custom OS, which with enough coders and a coherent plan could theoretically be done.

The hardware will just be a small form factor computer or gaming laptop in a box, with a controller attached.

It will be deconstructed day one, and what hardware they went with will be revealed.

Just seemed to have no logical end point. Like stop, you've got yours, retire from the game or become our clown. Clown gonna die now.

Doing a multi billion dollar realestate fraud, in a semi-communist "Socialist Oriented Market Economy"....

...yeah the penalty is gonna be on the steep side. Landlords, rent seekers, and fraudsters aren't looked upon nicely anywhere, but particularly so in a country with that relationship to communism.

Landlords aren't generally considered communal minded. Fraud isn't good for the community, it's not done for the collective good.

The immune system of the masses has weeded out the what was going on here, and will deal with it via putting the perpetrator to death. Making sure this outrageous and damaging conduct will not continue or be encouraged.

It's a tough call, and they're making it.

He would be easier to support if he had just kept releasing important news/evidence when it was morally justified, and not got into the more questionable activities of private intelligence - such as election meddling.

Bad move on his part, makes him a lot harder to defend.

A million people died in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, despite global protests and outrage. Sometimes it feels like there must be better systems than the current set up of "democracy".

The guy who passed hacked intelligence from a Russian agent to the Trump campaign whilst pretending it was from DNC staffer Seth Rich (which was an alt-right conspiracy theory) even when he knew that wasn't true, and even after Seth Rich was dead and he knew it wasn't true?

The guy who meddled in election outcomes because he thought he had a better shot at being pardoned by Trump?

The guy who was originally on charges for slipping a condom off whilst having sex?

Also Michael Jordan was apparently a real asshole.

I get the joke, but of course in reality we all know there's no way in hell Sisko is going to ask Picard for advice.

Can you name something he was wrong about? As far as I can tell he was instead subjective.

Psychology still uses most of his concepts, such as id, super ego, subconscious, persona, death drive, polymorphous perversity, ect..
