consider how many here without a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of in terms of what is true wealth today are willing to have humans murdered to protect a system of trade that only exists in their imagination.
Can you honestly say that the end purpose of Ai is not to eliminate ALL competition?
Ai is the fentanyl of the elite. They will use it.
and everyone who uses a chat model is just using the stepped on street version.“how noble in invention”

this morning my thought is that we have come to equate the satiiation of desire with love.
I received a beautiful valentine from the lady of the house. I told the lady i hoped that the virtues outlined in the card were mine. Called by faith to Love my effort is to always be mindful that First I Am Loved. I know that the call is to love existence itself.How Do I Love Thee? (Sonnet 43)
Elizabeth Barrett BrowningHow do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life; and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.do you love?
Does everyone understand the more bullshit videos watched the more bullshit videos the algorithms will supply you with?
“Like a circle in a spiral, a wheel within a wheel

Thankyou very little.Let me start with the self congratulatory BS. The European continent produced marketing which evolved into mass marketing. It was not the European continent “that produced the genius of Mozart and Beethoven, of Dante and Shakespeare, of Michelangelo and Da Vinci, of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.” The aforementioned genius was human genius. The genius of Michelangelo, Da Vinci, the Beatles and the Rolling Stones was quite in contravention of the prevailing views of European society. Everyone listed as genus would have been a genius wherever they had been born. What they would not have been is mass marketed.
To believe that 10,000 years of group living and culture has altered the human psyche is one of the most brutal forms of myopia.
I would advise every human being herded into the bottom of the graph in the K Curve to study guerilla warfare and arm themselves. Start now identifying the enclaves of wealth and power. Learn all of the transportation corridors and areas of hiding along those routes. Those on the bottom of the graph should develop an antipathy toward those in the top of the graph more comprehesive than that which those in the top group hold for them. The law of the jungle and survival of the fittest I say.
Will all minerals extraction feeding the singularity become robotic and Ai driven in two to five years?
NO IT WILL NOT.
All of these, top ot the heap, proponents of Ai and robotics are attempting to the hide a plan for the most brutal era of colonial empire in the history of humanity behind the ephemeral veil of abundance. The children mining rare earth elements around the globe are going to experience leisure and abundant wealth by 2030? Here’s a clue for you all, the sun is rising on the most sophisticated rape of humanity and the earths resources ever imagined.
Not infrequently someone writes about emasculation on these pages. One of the prime facets of masculinity is the fight or flight response. Every bit of the fight response lost has just been transferred to the flight response. As Monty Python advised “Run away, run away”.
those darn kids, those who will be on the inside of the cage and those who will be on the outside of the cage is what most cannot comprehend.
Want to see where our society is? Go and watch the parade of middle age to older men with pot bellies that have Dunlopped over their belt in the parking lot of your grocery store. These foul tempered fat assed specimens who could could not run fifty feet to save themself projecting themselves as badass. Those lacking even the decency to wipe the brown off their nose.
This being Sunday everyone should say a prayer of thanksgiving for autonomic breathing.
I was told to cheer up things could be worse, sure enough!about the Ai foundation:
1. Humans are not infallible.
2. Humans do not have all knowledge in hand.
3. Fallible ignorant humans assemble the data base for Ai.
5. The horror that lies in the National Security archives is not complete in the public data base.
6. Winning at any cost is a bias built into the culture that is building Ai in the western world.
7. Fallible ignorant humans designed and implemented the query / rules structure.
8. The financial, educational milieu within which Ai is being constructed believe they can act with impunity.
9. There is at this moment an organization of States, NATO, that believes in the right to murder for profit.
10. The pinnacle of individuals, transhumanists, in Ai development place no value on human life.Sapiens sapiens

Imagine Dr. D^1000 making all the decisions.Dr. D your piece on labor at the time of the transcontinental railroad was one of the most obtuse you have penned. Ayahuasca delivers a state closer to reality.
The percentage of the workforce in agriculture declined from 74% in 1800 to roughly 50% by 1880. The combine harvester and mechanization played a role as did the rapid increase in population in the US.
The transcontinental was finished in 1868, WTF do factory workers in 1900 have to do with the discussion?Necessity may be the mother of invention but necessity IS the father of risk. You are a rare breed of capitalist that advises against risk. Did you ever read about sweat shops and the struggle of labor?
what was your occupation from age 20 to 40? Tell me that before you speak against those “who never worked a day in their sorry lives”.
sometimes it i best to remain silent………….than to speak up………
the pronouncements by Elon Musk and Mustafa Suleyman concerning jobs are doing quite a public service by aiding in the clarification of the definition of “Useless Eaters”.

“he average duration of a job search for Americans in September was 22.6 weeks,” – https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackkelly/2024/10/08/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-current-state-of-the-white-collar-job-market/let’s be optimistic and say only 1/3 of professional jobs are going to replaced by Ai. My calculator tells me that would be 19.37% of the workforce.
Once again let us be optimistic that only 10% of non-professional job will be lost, 4.22% of the workforce.
Now convince me that the loss of 23.59% of the workforce can be absorbed in the current economy.
There will be quite a number of USELESS whether or not they will be eating is another question.The Diary of a CEO on youtube has an interiview with Eric Weinstein,
“You’re Watching the End of the World in Real Time”
that might be of interest to some“You’ll just tell it to fix itself.” – Jesen Huang
why does this remind me of Francis Fukuyama?just for fun let us say that the humans engaged in frivolities in the Epstein network are the ones assembling the AI prompts. As a model of wealth accumulation is put into place the Ai is told “just fix anything that diminishes the model”.

@dbs
“Bad guys aren’t that hard to spot. They’re the ones who think and believe that their own ideas, comforts, possessions and freedoms are more important than yours, and behave accordingly.”Do you live in The United States? What you describe is the fabric of the social construct here.The thread of exclusivity is woven into the fabric of keeping up with the Jones.
Everyone expects that type of verbiage from me but from D Benton Smith? get outta town@zerosum
“NOW, I know
So what!!!!”There’s good news and there’s bad news
The good news is there’s more bad newsD i don’t hate Mr. Musk but the space travel concept must be examined. The Starship, moon there and back, would take fourteen launches to fuel the lunar mission rocket.
The moon is an average 239 thousand miles distant while Mars is an average 140 million miles distant. The average distance to Europa is 484 million miles. Voyager I took 35 years to escape the heliosphere and Viking II took 41 years.The inner solar system missions account for the difference. This year Voyager I will reach a distance of one light day from earth.
Manned chemical rocket travel beyond mars is pointless if not untenable.The Myth of the American Free Press:
Long have i argued The Federalist Papers are the first media driven psyop in our history. This view of course indicates that media falsehood and the nation were co-joined at birth.
The constitution was not the best we could have had it was the best we were allowed to have. The Papers argued in favor of the constitution knowing the bill of rights would not be in the original. Those who wanted indentured servitude and those who wanted slavery were the financial powerhouses and just as today money talks. Money can also be silent, and at times that is when it is most powerful.
@ Topcat – “Can someone explain this to me?”
it is the same as when men would lynch a nigger on Saturday afternoon and go to church on Sunday morning and testify about their personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The congregation would comment to each other as they left the sanctuary how deeply moving and inspiring the testimony was.
then at Wednesday evening prayer meeting the congregation would assure each other Once Saved Always Saved and the Catholics ain’t christians.
The interview within which Madeleine Albright said sanctions on Iraq caused the death of 500,000 Iraqi Children was worth it still available on youtube. The very premise that Saddam Husein posed a nuclear threat has been proven to be false. Then secretary of state Albright must surely have known the WMD trope was false. Madeleine Albright on camera says “we think the price was worth it”. The United States caused the death of 500,000 children and certified the action as just using one of the greatest lies of the late twentieth century.
Currently the US is providing materials and support for the murder of children in Palestine.How can any sane person not understand that the above examples of US foreigh policy are demonic? The faux emotional reaction to the Epstein files from people who supported and promulgated these two historical facts is itself a sign of depravity.
The mental and emotional conditioning of children through the constant stream of pharma commercials is not even a matter of wide public discussion. The children of the US are being fed subliminal messaging in the form of advertisement supposedly aimed at adults. As the children go, so goes the nation.
I am of the opinion that the majority of those advocating for the release of the Epstein files have absolutely no interest in the well being of children or justice for victims, none. The majority just want the files released to satisfy their prurient interests. Shouting out so loud, “I didn’t know”.
It was bureaucrats doing the bidding of private corporations that killed millions and poisoned hundreds of millions.
All for personal gain and profit.
wait for the Ai produced pandemic, more comprehensive and more efficient than any human effort could create.
who is not looking forward to Ai engineered biochemical weapons and delivery systems? C’mon genetic mutations accomplished in months instead of millenia.The Architect was my favorite character in the Matrix series.
The Architect:
“………As you are undoubtedly gathering, the anomaly’s systemic, creating fluctuations in even the most simplistic equations.”
about that gorilla…..DBS reference Breur. My thoughts turned this morning to what this Epstein business is meant to hide.
My guess:
Beastiality, Necrophilia and Sniper Tourism – all meticulously documented – to be like television reruns
Skull and Bones Skybox seatingWhen the going gets weird
the weird turn pro – Hunter S Thompson“Why is the United States after Iran?”
The Persian-Roman Wars and Byzantine-Persian Wars. Persia and access to India and China has been an apple of the western eye at least since the first century BCTopcat the same people who enabled the immigration, transportation and re-settlement of millions of illegal immigrants are still sitting at their desks, including the conservative governors, who arranged transportation to bastions of liberalism and priviledge.The movement of the immigrants to the silver spoon communities being expensive cheap theater at best. Everyone who enables the transfer of federal funds to illegal immingrants is still sitting at their desk The owners of buildings housing illegal immigrants are still profiting from federal and state funding.
Every transfer of budgeted federal funds has a date and time stamp. Proper audits and fifty ICE agents would harvest as much fraud and illegal immigaration as the snuff film that is Minnesota.
Expediency always has obscure costs
I’m sick of blind in one eye can’t see out of the other kneejerk, reactionary, law and order nincompoops blaming everyone else for the problems of my nation. My position on the go along to get along crowd who never risked anything in support of honor, duty or justice is a matter of record. They have not earned the right to disparage anyone or anythingbut themselves.
“the rest is theatrics in a musical you want no part of.” tdk
well said!Funny how few want to remember Ronald Reagan and The New Conservatism and a New World Order that has led to this moment.
Taking $70,000.00 (without bonuses or overtime) as the salary of an ICE agent the 700 ICE agents leaving were costing $134246.57 a day. I would like to know the cost per alien taken into custody of the MInnesota charade.
Working under undeclared martial law and suspension of habeas corpus in violation of The United States Constitution might well make one a domestic enemy. While i agree that the families should remain inviolate the masked agents, whether on or off duty, are in violation of the spirit of The Preamble to The Constitution.Violence breeds violence.Contempt for the law breeds contempt for the law. We have known, without doubt since the Neuremberg trials that action under an unlawful order has no defense.
After reading the news this morning and reflecting on that of yesterday i mused that the common man was the subject of Isaiah 53:7.
Then i was drawn to Mak Twain“The more I learn about people, the more I like my dog.” ~ Mark Twain
“Every civilization carries the seeds of its own destruction, and the same cycle shows in them all. The Republic is born, flourishes, decays into plutocracy, and is captured by the shoemaker whom the mercenaries and millionaires make into a king. The people invent their oppressors, and the oppressors serve the function for which they are invented.” ~ Mark Twain
“There are laws to protect the freedom of the press’s speech, but none that are worth anything to protect the people from the press” ~ Mark Twain
“When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man’s moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?” ~ Mark Twain
“I think I can say, and say with pride, that we have some legislatures that bring higher prices than any in the world.” ~ Mark Twain
“I have no race prejudices, and I think I have no color prejudices or caste prejudices nor creed prejudices. Indeed I know it. I can stand any society. All that I care to know is that a man is a human being-that is enough for me; he can’t be any worse.” ~ Mark Twain
did anyone watch the Rick Wiles(TruNews) X video posted to Martyanov’s Blog comment section the other day?
I was attempting to be upwardly mobile in the residentail construction/financial circuit during the 80’s. The corruption and sexual deviancy at the time was intense. Nothing about the Epstein saga surprises
me at all. Anyone who has heard the term “casual labor” knows how corrupt the residential construction industry was in right to work states. The 70s and 80s laid the foundation and is the paradigm for the undocumented worker market we see today.
My naivete and being a bad good catholic boy saved me from entanglement. I agree with Rick Wiles when it comes to corruption in the US.
My opinion is that it is impossible for anyone in the upper 1/3 of the US economy not to have known now know the level of corruption in our society. The US is the world capital of disorganized crime.for the US citizens

new post
forgot the Mariel boatlift 1980.
There was a little Cuba installed at the Okaloosa County Fairground behind Field 2 of the softaball complex. Those housed there were the largest regular group of spectators i ever played softball for. The team i played for had just dropped from A league to B league and the Cubans were often quite amused by the antics on the field.
I was 29 that summer and i can’t even imagine emmigrating at my current age.“we have a lot of people in the US right now that would love to go back to Cuba and we’d like to work that out.” DJT
Batista left Cuba in 1959
Nationalization of key industries 1960
The Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966
who are these people that want to “go back”
Marco Rubio the new US installed puppet?
give me a restMichael Reid one of the beautiful facets of language is for one word to carry more than one meaning. The same is true for sentences.
“I believe nature exists and is the creator of all.
Does that mean God is nature?”Animism has the concept of nature as god covered nicely. Unless one is using the word god as a token of membersip in a particular club the definition is very fluid. Nihilism and Solipsism have the flip side of the word covered.
Ah language, depending on how i read your two statements and their context my response is
either
1. Good on ya mate – 2. Your personal experience and your intellect decide that issue.
or
GFY
believe as you willDr. D how about the deists? Deists who understood that an organized society needed a unifying moral code. The desits that found the philosophy of Jesus, not the dogma and doctrine of the roman christian political hierarchy, to be a good moral code for a self governing people?
The deists who knew the history of monarchies, the Vatican, The Reformation and the common man?Not everyone who adheres to the philosophy of Jesus is a roman christian, accepts the letters as revelation or places value on the history of the twelve tribes.
History is replete with lesser men who have risen to be pawns of the depraved and powerful.
it is quite possible to despise a man without hating him, whether a bit actor or tyrant.
