New ‘Mind Reading” AI Predicts What Humans Do Next

This is a new breakthrough, but it is only the beginning because the researchers have released the modified AI and the training data to the world, meaning that it will be quickly incorporated (and enhanced) into all predictive AI models like Palantir's Gotham. Other failed predictive policing software will have a resurgence. Marketing companies like Google and Amazon will have a heyday with new predictive metrics.

AI-Powered “Digital Workers” Deployed At Major Bank To Work Alongside Humans

"This is the next level." Not surprisingly, banking was the early and most aggressive adopter of AI. AI assistants are increasingly treated as fellow employees who have identities tied to email addresses and phone numbers. Banker dials phone: "Sally, I am helping Mr. Smith in my office with some adjustments to his trust document. Please review it for us and ensure it is in line with the latest changes in the law; cc both of us by email when you are done." Sally: "Will do. I will get back to you in 30 minutes." There are endless examples.

AI.gov: The Digital Leviathan Launching This Independence Day

Happy Birthday, America. Here is your present: Enslavement. (Gotcha!) AI.Gov will be exclusively run by Technocrats to achieve Technocrat ends. There will be no public input or involvement. For all you scoffers (politicians, academics, and citizens) who have been carping at me for the last 18 years, as I warned you what was coming, will you please get your head on straight? If these digital manics are not stopped, it is game over for freedom and liberty, for sanctity and humaneness.

“ChatGPT Psychosis”: The Collapse Of Reality Is Wrecking Lives

When I wrote in 2023, Warning: Reality Is Escaping Out The Back Door, I knew that stories like this would appear. "ChatGPT psychosis" is not a formal psychiatric diagnosis yet, but it is already described in academic literature, and the cases are streaming in. Many are tragic. All are sad. Others will follow. OpenAI and other will disavow all responsibility.

The Computer-Science Bubble Is Bursting

Could a degree in Liberal Arts be worth more than Computer Science? The young labor market is catching on that there might not be a market for entry-level programmers because of AI removing the bottom rung of the ladder. This is true for many other entry-level positions as well. Trade schools will benefit from offering skills for plumbers, electricians, and auto mechanics.

Ban AI Regulation: Whose In Charge Here, Congress Or AI Oligarchs?

Accelerationists like David Sachs, Marc Andreessen, and other arch-Technocrats, want no regulation for AI, especially from the states. Sachs is the AI Czar to President Trump, who has exceeded his time in office of 130 days. He was never approved by the Senate and apparently has no authority to do anything in Washington. Yet, he persists. This article is stumping for no regulation, and certainly not a "hodgepodge of state laws."

OpenAI Scores $200 Million Military Contract

First, the TechBros invaded Washington, DC, to become the guardians of our national data. Now they are taking over the military and weapon systems. High-ranking executives at Meta and Palantir have even accepted high-ranking commissions with the U.S. Army. Soon the all branches of the military will be awash with AI systems capable of targeting and killing. What could go wrong?

Amazon To Reduce Workforce As AI Displaces Humans

Amazon is the canary in the coal mine, the bellwether of AI adoption. Current employees have been put on notice that Amazon will continue to use AI at every turn to displace human workers. Since 2015, the ratio of human workers to robots has decreased from 7.7 to 2.1. Robot growth since 2014 exceeds 750 percent.
