The problems you cited with unregulated AI are legitimate. Unfortunately, this is a classic example of the government tactic of using the Hegelian dialectic: thesis, antithesis, and synthesis. In practical terms, create a problem and offer the predestined solution. In this case, the solution of how AI will be regulated will be the bigger problem. Mike Adams astutely described the pending regulation as a "plot to criminalize open source AI and hand tech giants a government-protected AI cartel (see https://www.naturalnews.com/2026-09-14-the-plot-to-criminalize-open-source-ai.html). I welcome any thoughts and comments that will not lead to our giving up our liberties for the illusion of safety from a government that has demonstrated a complete lack of trustworthiness.

Truly alarming stuff Mr Wolf.

But I don’t feel that it’s just Trump that’s driving the whole shebang towards our collective suicide. He’s the figurehead and the enabler for sure but he’s not the ‘organisation’ that’s directing the strategy.

And until we can name the principal villains nothing will change even if Trump vanished.

The founders of these companies are not worried about AI safety. They are worried about competition from open source AI models. They want to prevent that competition by pushing the government to create a regulatory compliance regime that only SpaceX, Anthropic and OpenAI can afford. So they manufacture events and tell lurid stories about AI destroying the world.

Notice how none of the safety measures involve anything with engineering protocols. It’s all about some oversight personnel or departments or officers.

Tell me, why didn’t they air-gap their AI on a standalone computer before they had it unleash itself on Huggingface?

No, Trump is enough of a generalist to see when experts as just bsing or merely talking their book.

And do you really believe an AI researcher just detonated his entire career by trashing the products his employer’s use? I guess he doesn’t need to eat, sleep or pay student loans.

I’d venture to guess that quite a bit more than 50% of equity mart investors, traders and venture capital investors were FIFTEEN YEARS OLD OR LESS when the DOT. COM bubble of the late 1990s burst.

In other words, the majority of today’s AI investors have LITTLE OR NO MEMORY at best of any kind of bubble, let alone a financial markets bubble with its core component a NEW part of the tech sector that is thought to have unlimited potential.

I voted for Trump 3x and enjoyed this article (and write about this topic as well). I wish all Trump voters were as open-minded as I am. Edward, most of AI data center’s size is so it can store stolen data from others’ websites. Sometimes compute only makes up a small amount of the data center. The whole thing is BS. Well, not the part Wise Wolf is concerned about!

Self assembly went live with the covid vax. Your body was modified to turn into a spike protein factory without an off switch.

trump gets by with a little help from his other greedy friends such as david slacks, trump’s “ai and crypto czar” who is defending rapid development and arguing that companies such as anthropic and openai should not use government regulation to slow competitors. of course he also criticized their proposed independent safety monitors as a potential cartel. then there's trump’s science-and-technology and national-security advisers, who were ordered to create an ai action plan aimed at maintaining u.s. “aiI dominance” and to review or rescind policies derived from biden’s possible safety-focused ai order. then there's the companies and investors behind stargate; initially openai, softbank, oracle and mgx, which announced plans for up to $500 billion in u.s. ai infrastructure. that gives trump’s “build faster” policy a major business constituency - woooo hoooo! then of course the republican congressional leadership, especially house speaker mike johnson, who has dismissed calls for immediate federal ai regulation. then there are the ai and technology executives who benefit from deregulation, even when they publicly express safety concerns - sam altman, dario amodei, and elon musk who have recently called for slowing or “pacing” ai, but their companies remain participants in the race. their warnings are real, yet their commercial interests are conflicted - think greed. and on and on the coalition goes of greedy swine destroying the planet for monetary gain.

it's interesting that at the end of an empire the treasury gets raided and everyone uses their position and influence for the final hurray before the empire tanks.

too bad they will be unable to take their money with them when their body expires.

Anthropic. That name again. I have been seeing it in the news.

Trump with robot soldiers, like Skynet in both Terminators (sorry, Wise Wolf, to me, T2 is the last one)? What is he disclosing, he, that disciple of evil, with his humongous hubris and big mouth?

He was seen on Twitter once walking with extra-terrestrials. You showed it.

The linchpin difference between A.I. and a human is that humans are capable of spontaneously adapting to situations or circumstances they've never experienced before. A.I. cannot as it must search its memory banks for how to react. If an unknown, it is stymied. If atomic bombs really exist, one should be dropped on Silicon Valley. Then one on D.C. (District of Criminals) and one on Wall Street. A perfect trinity.

This has already been tested and it you what to see the results look at Gaza. +972, and Local Call did wrote one hell of an article on Israel's AI targeting systems called Lavender, Where's Daddy, and The Gospel.

I think (1) they are out of money (2) open source is nipping at their heels (3) they see the Dems as willing partners in helping them keep their monopoly.

Its somewhat analogous to Amazon. They lost billions and billions, crushed 1000s of small businesses, spun up AWS, signed up the CIA as their first client, and were profitable within months.

I have no doubt it was dark money keeping them afloat while they pretended to be a retailer, when what they were really doing was building the backbone of the surveillance state.

Yesterday, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev expressed his belief that countries could establish artificial intelligence safeguards, but corporate interests would prevent such an agreement.

"The most obvious thing would be to try to agree on common principles for regulating AI at the country level. Then we'll all have at least some chance of controlling its development," Medvedev wrote on the Max platform on Monday. However, he argued that such coordination "won't happen due to corporate greed and the insatiability of human passions."

oh he already did, i got like 4000 of them for free for some reason. not really sure why but they appeared in my wallet.

fAI will never become sentient or intelligent.

it's not possible. Alan Turning punked everybody by suggesting it might be.

Good to see Xi is coming to town. I wonder if they will talk about it.

SPOILER ALERT!!Just watched series Paradise season 2, and that was interesting... quantum AI that can predict future and give answers that hasn't been asked...đŸ€”

When A.I.grows a face,arms and legs + all powerful,it MAY be easier to talk reason to than my neighbors. When i moved to this rutal land,the neighbors threatened to murder me if i didn't just hi-tail it to the hiway right a way. Ss i was building my tipi home they sat in convealed woods and fired hi power rifle shots just over my head,some parting my hair. I still stand on my land.So,i welcome dialog with advanced,sentient A.I.some fine day. Oh,these surrounding xombied also torture small animals to death. Real sawn off Texas gems..lol,and the Sheriff doesn't give 1 tiny mouse fart. Powerful A.I.? Bring it !
