Where does ATF get the statutory authority from to limit proliferation of forced reset triggers?… Where does ATF derive statutory authority to enforce its “Once a machine gun always a machine gun” rule? [More]

We know ATF has no such authority. But the system that promises “Clear answers. Official sources” resists fessing up.

FBI Using AI To Stop School Shootings; Doomers Want It Paused [More]

Real doomers are the ones who mandate schools be “unarmed”gun-free” predator empowerment zones.

This new Trump-inspired dismissive mob arrogance against and ridicule of exercising appropriate cautions before unleashing a force no one can truly claim to understand is insulting and a turnoff, and a really stupid and obnoxious stance to take, especially right before the midterms.

I’ll have more to say in an article I’m formulating.

Every Breath You Take, Every Move You Make

Gun Owners Have a Lot to Be Worried About With Cameras, AI, and Gun Rights [More]

In fairness, we are a lot easier to go after than the criminals they use the tech as an excuse for…

Y’ever get the feeling the wrong people are being monitored…?

Bloodlust In/Bloodlust Out

Attorneys representing the wife of one of two men killed last year during a mass shooting at Florida State University, which was allegedly committed by 21-year-old Phoenix Ikner, say that they will soon file a civil lawsuit against ChatGPT and its parent company OpenAI, after learning that the chatbot allegedly helped Ikner plan his mass killings and aided him throughout the commission of his crimes. [More]

Interesting… he got a gun from his “Only One” mother…

It’ll also be interesting to see what he input and what its response was. I’m no fan of ChatGPT, but I have had occasion where it or Google AI have responded they could not provide an answer to my query because… well here, let me show you:

I did that on DuckDuckGo, so hopefully SWAT won’t be showing up anytime soon.

Genius In, Genocide Out

AI detectors are in the spotlight again after one of them flagged the 1776 Declaration of Independence as 99.99% AI written. [More]

I’m reminded of another article I meant to comment on, where Shyam Sankar talks a slick game but goes real light on “How?” I read “Palantir” and Skynet comes to mind.

Billionaires like Elon promising us a guaranteed income are whistling past the graveyard of history. A purposeless welfare state of surfeit hardly seems like a viable plan, and actually comes across more like mass suicide and blasphemy.

The Man Who Would Be Savior…

Musk predicts AI will create ‘universal high income’ and make saving money unnecessary [More]

To each according to his wants, from each unearned demands?

Kids in candy stores will eat themselves sick. And look at all the miserable celebrities. With the judgment and intelligence exhibited by most, expect deaths from surfeit to skyrocket.

This seems like a purposeless existence where nothing is earned and everything is considered an entitlement. And since when is being a welfare parasite elevating for either the individual or the populace?

Who owns the means of production in this Utopia, and what do they expect in return?

Who will rule?

Sounds like somebody’s been influenced by too much Trekonomics.

When Seconds Count

“If it gives us one to three, four minutes that we’ve got someone with a weapon walking across that parking lot… ” [More]

And all someone needs to do to get even more of a jump on the system is not pull his gun until he’s ready to shoot…?

The reality deniers will happily spend your money on all kinds of useless distractions as long as it lets them avoid mentioning the one thing that would actually make a difference.

Me, I’m waiting for one of those AI “hallucinations” we hear about to get an innocent blown away by panicky “first responders”…

Tangentially-Related UPDATES

Speaking of hallucinations…

And I recently had to post a correction for trusting AI.

Meanwhile, Over at the Department of Pre-Crime…

“It scrapes the internet 24/7 using an Israeli grade ontology to pull specific threat language and then routes it to local law enforcement. It’s a 24/7 detective that never sleeps and it’s going to get us in front of these attacks.” [More]

And we already know who the algorithm considers to be the greatest threat.

So, where do they keep the precogs in the photon milk bath?

We all know the lesson of the Palantir, right?

And who’s beholden to Peter Thiel…?
