The peculiar rise of artificial intelligence for psyops and decline of it's governors real intelligence
It is remarkable how successful AI is for population scale Psyops & electronic warfare (if you ignore second order effects). As R.A. Wilson once remarked: "Reality is the temporary resultant of continuous struggles between rival gangs of programmers."
The stark contrast between the advancements in AI for Psyops and electronic warfare, and the dwindling intellect and decision-making capacity of those governing these systems is alarming. This wave of generational regression is a global concern.
Or as Napoleon Bonaparte put it: "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."
