    Soldier: “There’s no enemy here, you said there should be an enemy position but it’s just an empty field?”

    AI: “you’re absolutely right! I didn’t actually check this. Let me look now!”

      That would be acceptable, but what will happen is:

      “You are absolutely right, I should have asked before bombing that girl’s school. Let me fix this”

    I looked at the article to see what they actually mean. Apparently it means “Access to a diverse suite of AI capabilities from across the resilient American technology stack will give warfighters the tools they need to act with confidence and safeguard the nation against any threat,” the Pentagon said.

    So it means they can pump out meaningless bullshit at a faster rate than before.

      It means, “we don’t have to take the blame when we blow up a school and murder 100+ children”

      it means surveillance of “radical targets” aka dissidents, plus any targets they desire like palestinian children regardless of accuracy.

    There are 2 really good movies about why this is a bad idea… A couple okay ones, and 2 that shouldn’t exist.

    I heard there is also a series.

    Anyways, hasta la vista, baby!

      I feel the opposite. The world’s only hope is if the US is defeated. This helps make that hope into a reality.

    That makes sense. There’s no actual intelligence in what they call “AI”, just like in the Trump regime.

      Isn’t that the main issue they keep having?

      LLMs keep being “too woke” because they are not psychotic and so much of our leadership is that they’re really struggling to reconcile the discrepancy.

    The next time their targeting hits a school, they will be able to blame the AI so no one has to take responsibility. Just remove all humans from the loop. Autonomous fighting at AI speed and other lies.

    So basically an untrained computer program will destroy. L.A., Akron. OH, Hell, MI, Austin, TX and any other random roll of the dice. Every Waffle House will be eliminated in June. AI is the replacement for human stupidity. A=Automated I=Idiots

    Apparently we’re evolving from grift to ai-enabled “hypergrift”. From the outside it’s actually fascinating to watch how the regime is brazenly plundering America’s remaining wealth.
