Remember that movie Stealth in 2005 with Josh Lucas and Jessica Biel? Isn't it weird that her career kind of petered out after she was one of the hottest in Hollywood?

Only a matter of time.

This is how they eliminate the need for humans who don’t want to fire upon their fellow citizens when the real push to eliminate the undesirables ‘who cling to their guns and their bibles’ eventually happens. Seems like it would be pretty easy to steer AI to share certain ideological beliefs and see those who don’t follow the narrative as enemies of the state, and therefore acceptable to eradicate.

Was recently at an army demo and they had that robot dog thing out there. The manager has now mounted a machine gun on its back. I (jokingly) said "is that really the best idea?" and they didn't seem pleased at the question.

Everything in the movies that Lucas, Eugene Wesley Roddenberry Sr. and Cameron created, will be real in the future. Wish I could see it....

It didn't believe it at first either. Then I saw it with my own eyes. Fields, Neo, endless fields where humans aren't born, they're grown to turn the human body into this.....

I have a strange sense of foreboding. As though this is the highway to the danger zone.

How about AI politicians? This would make up the lack of intelligence that is so obvious in D.C.
And their purpose would be to always do what is best for the country and its' citizens. America first!

AI doesn’t have a soul or conviction. It will just kill whomever it’s told.

Absolute tyranny at that point.

They aren't even trying to hide it

And yet ... With all that advanced design. It will still hinge, somewhere in the chain of operations, on a HS graduate

Have you met chatGPT.

It is more woke, than the wokest human

It is more worried about not offending, than giving a correct answer. Kind of scary.

Didn’t Timberlake “remove her” from viewing pleasure? I know I wouldn’t want her being groped and poked by fatass Weinstein types in Hollywood.
