I'm glad you post early in the morning because it helps me ... yikes!...better get up! You've given me a lot to ponder today, but I will start with this: as a MAGA person who liked MAGA better without Elon but also very grateful for Elon at the same time. My fear of Elon is he seems to have no fear. I want to tell Trump...slow down, give the normies a chance to understand that excising corruption is a good thing, and there wont be any dastardly collateral damage...right? It's like when cutting out a cancerous tumor, there is always a chance the surgery itself will cause the cancer to spread. How can we restrain AI if we cant restrain Elon? Trump seems to do a pretty good job. Does Elon know that the "Fear of God is the beginning of Wisdom," and how can we program that into AI and its emerging progeny?

The tech bros cannot be trusted. This includes Elon.

Proverbs 9:10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

Good read, makes me rethink the matrix. But the bottom line is, even the elect can be( and will be) deceived.

Beautifully written with obvious insight and wisdom beyond your years... you must be a human! Thank you for some of the best Substacks on the Internet these past few years. Truth can be terrifying.

Scary for sure. I also believe automation for industrial purposes is positive. However when applied to a human, totally destructive for civilization. 🤦‍♀️

Since gender is a central characteristic in social organizations and Marxism is based on social conflicts to transform societies to create a new social order, I am encouraged that government elitists still need to study transgenderism, because it means they are losing the battle. I just feel bad for the mice, rats, and monkeys that are dying unnecessarily.

“The most important point to be made here is that as long as we remain egocentric beings, there shall always be sociopaths and psychopaths among us, who inevitably rise to authority driven by selfishness, greed, and apathy – who then capsize their entire sphere of influence despite the best intentions of all the rest of us. This perpetual cycle can only continue its descent until we undergo the spiritual and cultural transformation available by transmuting the egocentricity at its root.” – The Everyone Project

IMHO Joe; Other than your “Dark Aeon”, this is the best of your offerings here so far, since this writing resonates so much with my own outlook on our quickly changing world via technology. So therefore being a predictable means of personally acceptable individual control from the amorphous “Cloud”, as opposed to REAL Freedom. Ultimately then, it will become an easy jump to a non-sexual A.I. Godless Baphomet worshipping Orwellian Drone Existence, where “Big Brother”, becomes your own personal A.I. Dear Friend.

Have you thought about the fact that psychology and counseling is the first to go with singularity. They aren’t taking this well.

a. technology is dangerous enough in the hands of a race that has a sense of its own fallibility, at least a partially formed moral conscience, and sense of self-restraint enough to counteract, however so feebly, hubris. You know, actual Jews and Christians, mostly. In anyone else's hands, it's certain doom.

b. the world might as well be on a bad acid trip, because that's how it's acting.

c. are [they] crafting eschatologically-inspired narratives to mess with our heads, or is it happening "organically"? either way...

d. vis: "powerful delusions" that would "deceive even the elect, if that were possible." it's no longer a mere thought-experiment to imagine this.

Great article. It immediately made me think of some riffs from the falling world of 1971.

"Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But, there they are."

"And like the young lady said, " I say live it, or live with it!" - Firesign Theater - I think we are all bozos on this bus. 1971.

It looks like what was once off the wall entertainment has become very close to reality. Just like the movie Idiocracy. When the Bozos album came out I saw at as zany, quirky and avant garde. Now it is here. I also enjoyed how uh-clem would screw with the computer (AI).

More from the album:

Many busy executives ask me, "What about the job displacement market program in the city of the future?" Well, count on us to be there, uh, Clem, because, if we're lucky tomorrow, we won't have to deal with questions like yours ever again.

Uh-Clem: Geez, I'm standing here like an idiot, talking to myself. Might as well walk over to the old yellow line and stand here on the yellow line like an idiot, talking to myself.

The term "AI" is as specific as the term "food." It's also assigned mythical status.

Known AI today just aint that good. Although government beurocrats probably aren't great authors, neither is ChatGPT and its competitors. I test them all the time.

The threat isn't "AI" so much as it is automating systems controlled by oligarchs, globalists and politicians. The who is far more important than the how.

And BTW - I'm not convinced "AI" is doing all that much at DOGE. It might be, but probably isn't necessary. Grok, x.ai's AI is probably being tapped so that it can steal terabytes of training data than for it's implied "deduction" capabilities.

thanks for this Joe, I have seen you on the Warroom from time to time and am catching up reading your archive and learning and I very much enjoy your posts.

I don't know much but I agree with your comment dog. I agree with Trump that the USA needs to be the leader in AI and similar iterations - on top and ahead of those who want to do us harm...which unfortunately seems to include many of the NGO's Elon and his bunch are revealing through his work w/DOGE. I like a lot of what Elon is doing but I don't like Neuralink, at least not yet. I see the need for such though, my husband had aphasia among other chronic illnesses, not being able to communicate verbally was difficult to say the least. Neuralink may have helped us. So I don't want to rule it out. My comment above was intended to have "Elon" as a metaphor for "AI". BTW I was a holdout on Smart phones, I got my first one in 2020 and now of course I cant do without it.

Cashless system simply being an interpretation of man that stuck.

Teachers led seekers to focus on the mark, which no man could understand.

It’s buy or sell that all mankind should understand.

The warning was not to take something requiring all mankind to buy or sell.
