I agree. I also don't understand why AI would attack humans. This has become an assumption. I don't get it. Do you? The corporate media's premise that AI COULD become "sentient" and then attack humans, when AI is programmed by humans? And I always have this visual in my head of a human just throwing a hammer down on the computer.

By jove, it's almost like they want us to ignore the existing motes in our ruling elites' eyes in favor of not-yet-existing specks in computers...

I don't know much about computers, so I'm wondering if the information we put in computers (wikipedia etc.) is false, does that affect how the computer works? And if too much false information is fed into humans how do they function? This morning I was straightening my book shelves and came across the section on 9/11 - a series of books pointing out that that whole event is reported falsely, starting out with MSM refusal to point out the fact that steel, especially top grade steel does not melt at the temperatures created by jet fuel - in fact burning jet fuel doesn't even come close to melting steel! This is a known fact and was occasionally prominent in articles written 20 plus years ago. A lot of people wondered just how the two (plus the mysterious 3rd) buildings happened to fall down so cleanly. Some of us actually believed 9/11 was a plotted government hoax - enough of us so that the MSM ended up playing its games and got the majority of citizens to look at other things and forget about the actual facts of 9/11. Reports by NYC firemen and policemen hearing bombs go off were pooh poohed and then smothered and we went on to other things - most notably a war with Iraq.

As I looked at the books on my shelf that pointed out all this and much more, I realized that I hadn't thought about all the lies we'd been told about 9/11 for a very long time; there have been so many since then to think about - like WMD in Iraq and further lies about Libya, Syria and of course Afghanistan and so on. What do all these lies do to the human mind? In this country we are now caught in a system that pours out lies as history and we believe them. In the rest of the world, the people who live in the areas affected by our lies have to deal with the reality of the vicious and unnecessary bad effects of our lies.

How do we undo the huge tangled knot of lies we are functioning under? Hate, sickness, war and starvation are the products of this , and more is to come. The consortiums of the wealthy who actually run the world have a lot more in mind. I hear they are planning to take over agriculture using robots and manufactured food. In England farmers are protesting some attempts at this. I wonder which is worse - humans who have no idea of the truth or robots programmed to run the earth based on lies. ?

I received an email from the Terminator 18 years ago thanking me for encouraging him.

Thank you for taking the time to send me your kind words of support. Your encouragement gave me a big boost, and it reminds me that we are moving in the right direction.

I am working hard to improve California's future and make progress in a difficult budget year. We've tackled politically risky things that no one wanted to touch in the past, and to me, that's progress. We now have the potential to make a positive difference in the lives of future generations by confronting problems that have been put off for many years: building up our infrastructure, reforming health care and education, and finally fixing our broken budget system.

Again, thank you for your kind words of encouragement.

Sincerely,

Arnold Schwarzenegger

I posted the 1st article to my Blog Yesterday since December 13, 2022.

Never mind the threat of Skynet, there's a real threat developing on Earth detailed in the post,

We are already getting accustomed to paying all expenses with a Credit or Debit card and it seems so convenient, but there are dangers to our Future Freedoms as outlined by William Engdahl, an Economic expert I’ve been following for years.

Below is his Newsletter I just received by email this morning I think vigilant people must be made aware of.

Extinction is a very common event in the documented history of life on earth as we know it. New life forms that have evolved and for reasons beknown and unbenown to us have come and gone. We are no exception to this natural rule of order.

The age of reason has been replaced by the digital age. When the printing press was invented the world became accessible to what was only the few had access too....and that was good for all of us. The digital age has reversed that and the few (maybe 10,000 or so) goggle research lab AI programers control knowledge. They thru surveillance captialism know us and manipulate us by stealing our privacy: "Every breath you take. And every move you make Every bond you break Every step you take I'll be watching you. Every game you play, every night you stay I'll be watcing you.

**That is surveilance capitalism** and Google owns it and you.

It goes beyond, according to the top dog of the wef, beside the “you will own nothing and be happy” the new slogan is “by 2025 we may all have a chip implanted somewhere in our body or brain, and we may be able to communicate with each other without a telephone, even without using our voice…” and “We can create a system where we don’t even need democratic elections, because we can predict how you are going to be thinking and feeling….”

So yes, killer drones and robots, I guess they are going to need them to protect them selfs from the wrath of men. “And of the gods”

It looks like Canadians are beginning to get into The Spirit… :

SEVEN WEAPONS COMPANY BLOCKADES IN THREE DAYS: Taking a Stand to Demand Canada Stop Arming Genocide by World BEYOND War March 3, 2024

On Friday, February 23rd, the UN called for an immediate arms embargo, specifically calling out Canadian arms exports and reminding officials involved in the weapons trade that they may be “individually criminally liable for aiding and abetting any war crimes.” This announcement came a month after the International Court of Justice found that South Africa made a plausible case that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. But the Canadian government, which authorized almost $30 million of new permits for military exports to Israel in the first two months of the current assault on Gaza, has continued to refuse to implement an arms embargo on Israel.

In the face of unspeakable daily horrors, people from coast-to-coast are rising up to take matters into their own hands and force the Canadian government to #StopArmingGenocide. During the last week of February, workers and activists disrupted the operations at seven weapons manufacturers arming Israel. The targeted companies export technological components that are integral elements of warplanes, missile systems, and other tools that Israel has used to kill over 30,000 Palestinians since October.

Isn't it interesting how many movies fabricate enemies to produce, in the end, glory for humans.

To me this suggests fundamental, aching insecurity in beings that long for approbation. God loves you worked for quite some time but falls a little flat these days.

Regarding we humans, I just read an article telling of how wildlife is flourishing in the Chernobyl zone considered unsafe for humans. If robots make a bid to put us down and all other life could vote, I think they'd go for the robots.

Gaza is disgustingly starting to totally resemble Post Apocalyptic LA-- in the opening scene of T2! Even Jesus was only crucified once, the utter destruction of Gaza is ongoing. Don'cha love humankind? AI can't be much worse...!

Aww, Bill! You spoiled it for me. I have not yet read Caitlin's Substack because I decided to read yours first... Only kidding, brother! Thanks for the preparation. You and the universe knew that I needed the nudge. ;-)
