+ | [[A.I.]] is creating a [[transhumanism |fusion of humans and machines]]. Machines improve or threaten to take over decision making in human society making humans superfluous some day soon. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In 2021, [[Stuart J. Russell]] was to deliver a series of four Lectures on the theme "Living with Artificial Intelligence". Lecture 1 was entitled "The Biggest Event in Human History". | ||
+ | <ref> | ||
+ | ''[https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001216j "The Biggest Event in Human History"]'' | ||
+ | </ref> | ||
+ | A "[[New Age|golden age for humanity]]" could come along, although "machines don’t have an IQ". [[Intelligence]] is defined as follows by Russell: ''Humans are intelligent to the extent that our actions can be expected to achieve our objectives.'' Moreover, this poor definition of intelligence means that '''the end justifies the means''' if it is "successful" in achieving the goals of the programmer: ''All those other characteristics of intelligence; perceiving, thinking, learning, inventing, listening to lectures, and so on, can be understood through their contributions to our ability to act successfully.'' He does not explore who gets to define what ''success'' constitutes and for whom. | ||

+ | The "quality" of the [[A.I.]] depends on the data sets used, the selection and training on these data sets depends on the intentions of the humans involved.<ref>A project at MIT had the focus to train an AI, that has the ability to describe pictures, to always see something bad. - https://web.archive.org/web/20180702084703/http://norman-ai.mit.edu/</ref> | ||

+ | === A.I. dystopia === | ||
+ | |||
+ | In October 2024, speaking at the [[Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe]], [[Julian Assange]] said: | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{QB | | ||
+ | : “Artificial intelligence is being used for mass assassinations in [[Gaza]]. | ||
+ | : The majority of targets in [[Gaza]] are bombed as a result of artificial intelligence targeting.” | ||
+ | }} | ||
+ | |||

+ | === Deepfakes === | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{FA| Deepfake}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The use of [[A.I.]] to create fictional and imitate existing people became a problem in the late [[2010s]]. [[Gabon]] was one of the first actual countries where deepfakes instigated a coup in [[2019]].<ref>https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2019/03/deepfake-gabon-ali-bongo/</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== A.I. imagery abuses ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | A [[2023]] report by the [[BBC]] mentioned the [[Internet Watch Foundation]] had seen images on the [[internet]], where [[celebrities]] were "transformed" back into kids in pictures, and the pictures shared again with the kids wearing less clothes and being abused.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/sep/12/paedophiles-using-open-source-ai-to-create-child-sexual-abuse-content-says-watchdog</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | In [[2024]], The [[Internet Watch Foundation]] said a manual found via the [[Tor]] broswer contained a section encouraging criminals to use “nudifying” tools to remove clothing from underwear shots sent by a child. The manipulated image could then be used against the child to blackmail them into sending more graphic content. The author claimed he had sucessfully extorted "13 year olds girls in the [[UK]]."<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2024/apr/23/paedophiles-create-nude-ai-images-of-children-to-extort-them-says-charity</ref> | ||

+ | === Global control grid === | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{FA |Global control grid}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The idea of a [[global control grid]] has long been a fantasy of [[megalomaniac]] [[technocrats]]. As the [[21st century]] progresses, more and more tasks formerly done by human beings are being turned over to software.{{citation needed}} | ||

+ | ==== International competition ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{FA |DeepSeek}} | ||
+ | |||
+ | Compared to the [[space race]] for orbital dominance and technological supremacy, the [[artificial intelligence war]] dramatically escalated rapidly in 2025 with the allegedly game-changing release of [[China]]'s more efficient smaller [[open-source]] [[DeepSeek]] [[A.I.]] with record-breaking [[economic disruptions]] of the [[American]]-based A.I. [[technocracy]].<ref>''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2xwgU8Gb5E China's DeepSeek Disrupts AI Industry & The Future of Tech]'' (17:20) ~ Kim Iversen, January 27, 2025</ref> | ||

''Natural language parsing'', i.e. understanding ordinary human language, has long been the holy grail of artificial intelligence, as it offers the chance to communicate with computers as easily as with other people. However, its feasibility (or even possibility) — together with what actually constitutes "intelligence" - remains an open question. | ''Natural language parsing'', i.e. understanding ordinary human language, has long been the holy grail of artificial intelligence, as it offers the chance to communicate with computers as easily as with other people.

+ | === Semantic web === | ||
+ | |||
+ | ''(see: [http://anoniem.org/?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantics semantics], [http://anoniem.org/?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_wiki semantic wiki]'')<br> | ||
+ | After creating the [[World Wide Web]], [[Tim Berners Lee]] announced that he was interested in a [[semantic web]], that is, a global web of documents that are not ''human'' readable, but ''machine-''readable. To this end, the [[W3C]] developed the [[Resource Description Framework]] (RDF), a data format intended to express meaning, which could in theory be auto-translated into human languages by software. This underpins the [[Semantic Mediawiki]] software which is used on this website. Each page on this site has a small blue RDF icon in the top right hand corner, which presents the page in RDF. | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Psychological aspects == | ||
+ | |||
+ | While the concept of "Artifical Intelligence" is clear, the process whereby it happens is impossibly obscure to a lot of people, giving the technology some sort of mystique that can be exploited for psychological purposes. | ||
+ | |||
+ | All software is made by human [[programmers]] who control it at every stage. Whether writing it using computer code or selecting data sets for it, human input is essential, and can therefore be used for political purposes. Nevertheless, A.I. software may appear to be somehow impartial, fooling people into accepting its decisions as easily as they do life's vicissitudes beyond human control. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Control === | ||
+ | |||
+ | "World computer simulations", predictive scenarios, i.e [[Event201]] and large scale disaster preparation exercises may - unwittingly or not - fall in this category. They may help unfolding and at the same time controlling a self-fulfilling prophecy.<ref>Meloy uses the term ''unconscious simulations'' to describe a very similar process as core element in in the psychoathic mind. The [[Psychopath]] avoids going insane by imposing his inner conflicts onto the world. - Meloy, J. Reid, Ph.D., The psychopathic mind: origins, dynamics, and treatment, Jason Aronson 2002</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | For example, [[Blackrock]]'s trading [[robot]] (called "Aladin") can move enough money to create (and exploit) monetary bubbles. Researched Google bubbles include the terms "[[terrorism]]", "[[covid]]" and "miserable failure" - the last returned "[[G. W. Bush]]" as first hit while the bubble was in full swing (the system had to be halted to stop skyrocketing). While in [[Streisand effect|rare cases funny]], the destructive effects on war, the world economy, personal freedom, public opinion and totalitarianism (resulting in "Gleichschaltung") are underestimated. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Forced conformity === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The internet user is bombarded today with "what others think/like/search '''now'''", etc (note the present tense). [[Consensus_trance#Asch_Conformity_Experiments| Salomon Asch's experiments]] have shown that similar [[group pressure]]s create a stunning dynamic: 30% (or more) of subjects under similar conditions '''gave up on their personal opinion''' and followed the (in Asch's experiments manufactured, i.e. falsely portrayed) consent. [[Robert Epstein]] and others have reproduced similar results concerning [[Google]]'s (and other [[search engine]]'s power to influence elections and make businesses a failure or success, see for example [https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Document:The_new_mind_control| The new mind control]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A.I. may be used to decide about social control techniques, as the Chinese [[Social credit system]] does, or deny access to public resources, log-ins, or account creation (Google et. al.) as conditioning (aka punishments) bypassing in effect the legal system. A.I. easily creates an unconcrollable jurisdiction. | ||
+ | |||
+ | To avoid oscillation from uncontrolled and possibly dangerous feedback loops, diversity, i.e random variations in these channels are necessary. Overuse of A.I. poses a risk in that these variations are reduced in number and effect; or viciously abused for purposes of power and [[social control]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Propaganda aspect === | ||
+ | |||
+ | A.I. [[propaganda]] tries to convince the public otherwise and fosters a deterministic world view, which may push "believers" into a state of [[learned helplessness]] or [[dumbing down]] (the belief that one is too dumb to make decisions by oneself). | ||
+ | |||
+ | == Warfare == | ||
+ | |||
+ | A [[Telegram]] channel posted about the suspected use of A.I. (operated by the [[American military]]) to plan the operations of the [[Ukrainian army]] amidst the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]]:<ref>https://t.me/Slavyangrad/12236</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{QB | | ||
+ | : “It is no secret that the enemy is using AI and neural networks. The computer processes information and "highlights" troop concentrations via mobile signals, messengers, and phones - where vulnerable positions are. The AI identifies weak and strong positions, where to attack, and where it is better not to move. When all the moves have been calculated, all that remains is to make a decision. | ||
+ | : An example - the Ukrainian generals did not accept the plan for a counter-offensive at Kharkov, they were against it. The handlers insisted on the plan, the Americans pushed it through. Contrary to the opinion of the AFU command, an order was given to attack Balakleya-Yuzum, etc. The Ukrainian army was unsure of this operation, it went on strike, it was a forced order. But the result worked, marched like a tank through the mud. Ukraine uses western interactive maps where everything is completely marked - tank columns, the concentration of equipment, etc. Any chief of staff - brigade, regiment etc. - to exclude "friendly fire" makes online corrections and they do not have difficulties with passing as we do (but it does not always work)...” | ||
+ | }} | ||
+ | |||
+ | === US === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The [[National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence]] is a key part of the government’s response to what is often referred to as the coming “fourth industrial revolution,” which has been described as “a revolution characterized by discontinuous technological development in areas like artificial intelligence (AI), big data, fifth-generation telecommunications networking (5G), nanotechnology and biotechnology, [[robotics]], the Internet of Things (IoT), and quantum computing.” | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Commission is a temporary organization, and is supposed to submit its final report to Congress in October 2020. The Commission will cease operations following the submission of its final report. <ref>.https://www.nscai.gov/about/faq</ref> | ||
+ | |||
+ | The vice-chair of NSCAI, [[Robert O. Work]] – former [[Deputy Secretary of Defense]] and senior fellow at the hawkish [[Center for a New American Security]] (CNAS), described the commission’s purpose as determining “how the U.S. national security apparatus should approach artificial intelligence, including a focus on how the government can work with industry to compete with China’s ‘civil-military fusion’ concept.” | ||

A branch of computer science intended to enable computers to carry out tasks previously made by human beings. |
Artificial intelligence (A.I.) is the branch of computer science which seeks to re-create the "intelligence" of human beings in software.[1]
A.I. gained more popularity in the 2010s with deepfake technology and even more in the 2020s with nearly perfected automated chatbots which Google, Microsoft and OpenAI invested heavily in.[2]
Contents
Official narrative
A.I. is creating a fusion of humans and machines. Machines improve or threaten to take over decision making in human society making humans superfluous some day soon.
In 2021, Stuart J. Russell was to deliver a series of four Lectures on the theme "Living with Artificial Intelligence". Lecture 1 was entitled "The Biggest Event in Human History". [3] A "golden age for humanity" could come along, although "machines don’t have an IQ". Intelligence is defined as follows by Russell: Humans are intelligent to the extent that our actions can be expected to achieve our objectives. Moreover, this poor definition of intelligence means that the end justifies the means if it is "successful" in achieving the goals of the programmer: All those other characteristics of intelligence; perceiving, thinking, learning, inventing, listening to lectures, and so on, can be understood through their contributions to our ability to act successfully. He does not explore who gets to define what success constitutes and for whom. [4]
Concerns
The "quality" of the A.I. depends on the data sets used, the selection and training on these data sets depends on the intentions of the humans involved.[5]

In October 2024, speaking at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, Julian Assange said:
Afshin Rattansi responded on X:
A.I. independence
- More soon.
Deepfakes

The use of A.I. to create fictional and imitate existing people became a problem in the late 2010s. Gabon was one of the first actual countries where deepfakes instigated a coup in 2019.[7]
A.I. imagery abuses
A 2023 report by the BBC mentioned the Internet Watch Foundation had seen images on the internet, where celebrities were "transformed" back into kids in pictures, and the pictures shared again with the kids wearing less clothes and being abused.[8]
In 2024, The Internet Watch Foundation said a manual found via the Tor broswer contained a section encouraging criminals to use “nudifying” tools to remove clothing from underwear shots sent by a child. The manipulated image could then be used against the child to blackmail them into sending more graphic content. The author claimed he had sucessfully extorted "13 year olds girls in the UK."[9]

The idea of a global control grid has long been a fantasy of megalomaniac technocrats. As the 21st century progresses, more and more tasks formerly done by human beings are being turned over to software.[citation needed]

Compared to the space race for orbital dominance and technological supremacy, the artificial intelligence war dramatically escalated rapidly in 2025 with the allegedly game-changing release of China's more efficient smaller open-source DeepSeek A.I. with record-breaking economic disruptions of the American-based A.I. technocracy.[10]
Mass Surveillance
Most corporations have a clause in the consent forms for their products to record users through video and audio to improve their systems recognising speech and text patterns.[11] Microsoft and Apple contractors have admitted to listening to users of XBoxes they "said that recordings were sometimes triggered and recorded by mistake".[12][13]

Various efforts have been made to automate the "fact checking" process, but as of 2019, the fundamental obstacle that computers cannot reliably parse English (or other human languages) remains insurmountable, rendering automated "fact checking" inherently fallible.[citation needed]

Natural language parsing

- Full article: Natural language parsing
Natural language parsing, i.e. understanding ordinary human language, has long been the holy grail of artificial intelligence, as it offers the chance to communicate with computers as easily as with other people. However, its feasibility (or even possibility) — together with what actually constitutes "intelligence" - remains an open question.
Zach Vorhies points out that Microsoft bought the exclusive license to GPT-3 and could be producing text of such high quality that it can not be distinguished from the writing of a person.[14]
Auto-generated biographies and website articles
A number of domains for websites that automatically generate biographies from publicly available data on the Internet have been registered in the 2019 period.[15][16][17][18]
Microsoft patent
Patents registered by Microsoft in 2021 seem to indicate that the natural language parsing technology has matured so much that it can imitate persons.[19][20] Initial reports about the development of the technology started in late 2016.[21]

- Full article: Reddit
Online security consultants Barracuda Networks published[22] a study indicating. 39% of all internet traffic in 2021 was from malicious automated computers software, repeating previous research[23] from the 2010s, painting the eerie reality where thus over 50% of the internet is bots purely "talking" to each-other. There are reports that by 2017, conversations on major social media platforms are to some extent handled by script/AI activity.[24]
When comparing this to earlier studies[25] naming astroturfing the work of bots, questions begin to arise how one can still be sure something in real.[26] Apart from the more practical problems; bots created by people competing with regular customers for the most basic products, to sell them with higher profit later on, and unknown spooks using bots[27][28] to simulate online support or astroturfing for a cause.
Semantic web
(see: semantics, semantic wiki)
After creating the World Wide Web, Tim Berners Lee announced that he was interested in a semantic web, that is, a global web of documents that are not human readable, but machine-readable. To this end, the W3C developed the Resource Description Framework (RDF), a data format intended to express meaning, which could in theory be auto-translated into human languages by software. This underpins the Semantic Mediawiki software which is used on this website. Each page on this site has a small blue RDF icon in the top right hand corner, which presents the page in RDF.
Psychological aspects
While the concept of "Artifical Intelligence" is clear, the process whereby it happens is impossibly obscure to a lot of people, giving the technology some sort of mystique that can be exploited for psychological purposes.
All software is made by human programmers who control it at every stage. Whether writing it using computer code or selecting data sets for it, human input is essential, and can therefore be used for political purposes. Nevertheless, A.I. software may appear to be somehow impartial, fooling people into accepting its decisions as easily as they do life's vicissitudes beyond human control.
Control
"World computer simulations", predictive scenarios, i.e Event201 and large scale disaster preparation exercises may - unwittingly or not - fall in this category. They may help unfolding and at the same time controlling a self-fulfilling prophecy.[29]
For example, Blackrock's trading robot (called "Aladin") can move enough money to create (and exploit) monetary bubbles. Researched Google bubbles include the terms "terrorism", "covid" and "miserable failure" - the last returned "G. W. Bush" as first hit while the bubble was in full swing (the system had to be halted to stop skyrocketing). While in rare cases funny, the destructive effects on war, the world economy, personal freedom, public opinion and totalitarianism (resulting in "Gleichschaltung") are underestimated.
Forced conformity
The internet user is bombarded today with "what others think/like/search now", etc (note the present tense). Salomon Asch's experiments have shown that similar group pressures create a stunning dynamic: 30% (or more) of subjects under similar conditions gave up on their personal opinion and followed the (in Asch's experiments manufactured, i.e. falsely portrayed) consent. Robert Epstein and others have reproduced similar results concerning Google's (and other search engine's power to influence elections and make businesses a failure or success, see for example The new mind control.
A.I. may be used to decide about social control techniques, as the Chinese Social credit system does, or deny access to public resources, log-ins, or account creation (Google et. al.) as conditioning (aka punishments) bypassing in effect the legal system. A.I. easily creates an unconcrollable jurisdiction.
To avoid oscillation from uncontrolled and possibly dangerous feedback loops, diversity, i.e random variations in these channels are necessary. Overuse of A.I. poses a risk in that these variations are reduced in number and effect; or viciously abused for purposes of power and social control.
Propaganda aspect
A.I. propaganda tries to convince the public otherwise and fosters a deterministic world view, which may push "believers" into a state of learned helplessness or dumbing down (the belief that one is too dumb to make decisions by oneself).
Warfare
A Telegram channel posted about the suspected use of A.I. (operated by the American military) to plan the operations of the Ukrainian army amidst the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine:[30]
- “It is no secret that the enemy is using AI and neural networks. The computer processes information and "highlights" troop concentrations via mobile signals, messengers, and phones - where vulnerable positions are. The AI identifies weak and strong positions, where to attack, and where it is better not to move. When all the moves have been calculated, all that remains is to make a decision.
- An example - the Ukrainian generals did not accept the plan for a counter-offensive at Kharkov, they were against it. The handlers insisted on the plan, the Americans pushed it through. Contrary to the opinion of the AFU command, an order was given to attack Balakleya-Yuzum, etc. The Ukrainian army was unsure of this operation, it went on strike, it was a forced order. But the result worked, marched like a tank through the mud. Ukraine uses western interactive maps where everything is completely marked - tank columns, the concentration of equipment, etc. Any chief of staff - brigade, regiment etc. - to exclude "friendly fire" makes online corrections and they do not have difficulties with passing as we do (but it does not always work)...”
US
The National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence is a key part of the government’s response to what is often referred to as the coming “fourth industrial revolution,” which has been described as “a revolution characterized by discontinuous technological development in areas like artificial intelligence (AI), big data, fifth-generation telecommunications networking (5G), nanotechnology and biotechnology, robotics, the Internet of Things (IoT), and quantum computing.”
The Commission is a temporary organization, and is supposed to submit its final report to Congress in October 2020. The Commission will cease operations following the submission of its final report. [31]
The vice-chair of NSCAI, Robert O. Work – former Deputy Secretary of Defense and senior fellow at the hawkish Center for a New American Security (CNAS), described the commission’s purpose as determining “how the U.S. national security apparatus should approach artificial intelligence, including a focus on how the government can work with industry to compete with China’s ‘civil-military fusion’ concept.”

Sam Altman | “Both publicly and internally, leaders at Microsoft are cheering OpenAI's apparent return to normalcy following days of chaos.
The ChatGPT creator, in which Microsoft has reportedly invested some $13 billion, has been on a roller-coaster ride that began Friday when its board abruptly fired Sam Altman as CEO and ended with his return and the appointment of a new board early Wednesday. Following Altman's ouster, Microsoft swooped in to hire him along with OpenAI co-founder and president Greg Brockman — who quit OpenAI in protest over Altman's termination — to lead a new advanced AI research team at Microsoft, and also offered to hire any other OpenAI employees who wanted to leave. Sam Altman is returning to OpenAI as CEO after his ousting last week, and three board members that participated in his termination have been removed. At that point, Microsoft, already majority owner in OpenAI, was positioned to essentially "acquire" OpenAI by absorbing its talent, after nearly all the startup's 770 or so workers signed a letter saying they would take Microsoft up on the offer unless Altman was reinstated. However, a deal was ultimately reached for Altman to return to OpenAI rather than allowing the $90 billion company to collapse, in what Fortune tech reporter David Meyer wrote is an outcome that "is pretty ideal for Microsoft."” | Fox News Sam Altman Breck Dumas | 2023 |
Greg Coppola | “I’ve just been coding since I was ten, I have a Ph.D., I have five years of experience at Google, and I just know how algorithms are. They don’t write themselves. We write them to make them do what we want them to do.” | Greg Coppola | July 2019 |
