*********************************

In a recent quote, Larry Fink, the grand poohbah of Blackrock, an investment firm that with Vanguard and State Street essentially controls the corporate world, stated his greatest fear regarding the gigawatt data centers that he is financing to support the ultimate roll-out of AI. His fear was rather quaint…that the multi-gazillion dollar AI supporting installations would be threatened by aerial drones either armed kinetically or simply by the suicide type…some of which may come from pesky “domestic terrorists.” I say quaint because attacking a data center with drones would be like a fighter plane strafing a battleship…there would be damage but the ship would still be afloat and still largely functional. Larry has some deeper threat assessment to do.

When you ask Donald Trump why he is throwing 100% of his administration’s support behind AI and the build-out of massive gigawatt data centers across the USA to support it he will tell you one thing first: whoever controls the biggest and best AI and AI support infrastructure on the planet will control the planet…all the nations, all the people, all the institutions, everything. He will also tell you that our primary (really only) competitor in this regard is China and that we must defeat China in this quest if America is to continue to exist into the future as a free society under a constitutional government.

Finally, Trump will tell you that he must suspend the rights of communities across the country where gigawatt AI data centers are to be built so that they do not in any way impede the building of these data centers via zoning laws, environmental regulations, or even simple objection to the land destruction, noise, and light pollution that they would cause. In other words, if your community objects to or blocks one of these data centers, according to the Trump administration, your community is a threat to national security and this cannot be tolerated…concerns about water usage for cooling being diverted away from agriculture (diminishing food for humans) and skyrocketing energy costs and energy rationing for consumers be damned. This is national imperative.

If you are as old as I am, you might remember that during the early 1960’s we were warned about something called “the missile gap” between the USA and the Soviet Union. The narrative was that the Soviet Union had developed more nuclear armed intercontinental ballistic missiles than the United States had and that given the “right” circumstances the Soviets would use this perceived dominance to take out the United States in a first strike, leaving them as the dominant power in the world and the USA in ashes. Sound familiar? China has and is developing more AI capability than the United States and given China’s stated goal of essentially taking over the United States…destroying its society and seizing its physical productive infrastructure…the United States must go all hands on deck to counter with superior AI capability to defeat the Chinese. So they say.

What one concludes from all of this is that despite all of the claims that AI and the data centers are intended to create the brightest future possible for humanity that we could imagine…miracle medical advancements, incredible productivity and real wealth creation for we the people, more effective education systems, greater, more satisfying job opportunities for the masses, curing any disease you can think of or imagine, you name it…the real truth is that AI is considered by those in power to be the most potent military weapon in history. In an instant a military AI program will be able to silently and swiftly take down an adversary country’s whole power grid, incapacitate its water distribution system and its waste water management system, stop all electronic money transactions, halt its transportation system and goods distribution systems…basically bring an entire society to its knees by having your military AI hack into the software that controls all of these systems’ operations and bring them to a halt.

But that is only the start of it. It’s not just a weapon you can use against your geo-political adversaries, you can use it against the people of your own country to subjugate them in an iron tyranny the likes of which genocidal tyrants like Hitler, Stalin, or Mao would have given their eye teeth. This is why the globalists love AI because they want to rule the world, not just some country. The combination of the total global surveillance state and the hyper-scale AI/data center infrastructure they are building is ultimately intended for their use as agents of cooperative governments. These governments shall surrender their populations to the scions of the globalist Deep State via total individualized control of the those populations. This is why the big four tech companies, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet (Google)…all firmly commanded by major league globalists…have committed to investing $800 billion in 2026 to the build-out of hyperscale AI/data centers. These data centers shall constitute the heart of the global digital prison that the globalists in cooperation with compromised governments and national intelligence agencies like the CIA, NSA, MI6 and Mossad shall use to subjugate humanity.

If you want to control the population of a society, just do what China is doing right now…comprehensively surveil your citizenry’s lives and progressively deny any non-compliant citizens to your dictates access to software controlled life support systems …or just turn off their digital money period so that they are denied all of the necessities of life and eventually die of natural causes or commit suicide. AI’s application in this respect is so simple, so clean, so effective…what globalist nation-state or corporate leader without a conscience could resist using it in this way! In the USA the Trump administration has integrated Silicon Valley software company Palantir’s main AI based software products, Gotham and Foundry, into multiple government agencies including the IRS, the DOJ, and the Pentagon in order to begin the institutionalization of the US version of China’s digital prison. Just to tell you how deep this goes, our Vice President J.D. Vance’s is a protégé of Peter Thiel, the founder of Palantir. Vance’s political career has been financed by Thiel and Vance would be nowhere without Thiel…that tells you everything you need to know about the direction that the Trump administration is going as far as the future AI digital prison intended for “We The People.”

AI weapon is not particularly cheap to deploy, but once deployed it is extremely cheap and easy to use whether aimed at another country or your country’s citizens. It travels to its target at the speed of light, leaves no vaper trail or heat signature, strikes precisely and silently, and results in massive societal chaos and destruction while leaving the enemy’s physical infrastructure intact. If you’re running a country and use it properly, the AI weapon can decisively bring down your enemy, whether it be a pesky nation state or your own country’s population without firing a kinetic shot. It’s a dream weapon, but it does have a problem…it’s very vulnerable in many ways to compromise, redirection, total dysfunction, and even destruction. This is where Big Larry’s threat misconception about AI data centers comes in.

Artificial intelligence in its various forms is the product of a product. AI is a software product made up of millions (probably billions) of lines of code that is meant to mimic the capability of the human brain in terms of reasoning, decision making, and acting. Beyond this “near human consciousness” function it is also software able to draw on trillions of times more data than a human brain could possibly draw on and to sort out and process that data at light speed in order to accomplish its task of reasoning, decision-making, and acting. AI is probably the most amazing technology ever created by man, which is also its main problem…it was created by man and anything created by man can be undone by man. In fact because of this, AI will ultimately prove to be its own worst enemy. Think of missiles and anti-missile missiles, then think about that oldy but goody cold war concept, mutually assured destruction (MAD).

If you are a human AI-interested cyber warrior for China or the USA and you are looking at how to counter the threat posed by the other side’s AI, what are you looking for? The easy answer is how can you harden your own country’s functional software infrastructure against attack from the other side’s AI. That may look good but that is really tough to do considering all of the functioning software infrastructure out there and all the ways that it can be infiltrated over the Web and disabled or destroyed The fact of the matter is that all of these systems are at some place connected to the Web and that connection is a doorway that any military AI system worth its salt can enter and do its thing…firewalls, passwords, etc. be damned! So what you really want to do is what the boys in the missile department do…make missiles that shoot down incoming missiles, or anti-missile missiles. You have to find a way to attack the other side’s AI itself. That is not easy but it is really the most effective means of protection.

There are a number of ways to attack a software program: 1. you can cause it to simply totally malfunction or self-destruct as in producing the “blue screen of death” that all of us old-timers from the DOS and early Windows OS days remember; 2. you can cause it to malfunction so that it simply does not do what it was designed to do as in making it stupid; or, among other things, 3. You can cause it to do the opposite of what it was intended to do including turning it on its own side so that it destroys them instead of your side.

Getting into and altering the code of an adversary’s military AI software to your advantage is really, really hard to do…in fact it is probably so hard to do that you would need a, you guessed it, military grade anti-AI AI software program to do it! And lucky you, you have the unlimited resources of your government and its private and/or public (particularly if you are in a communist country) sector’s technocracy to call upon to make it happen.

Thus the greatest war of the early 21st century shall begin, World War AI. Actually, this will be the most wonderful war of history in that there will not be millions of dead and maimed human bodies lying in the streets, in the fields, and certainly not on the beaches of the planet as a result of it. In fact, there will also be no destroyed and disabled soldier robots’ bodies lying in the streets, in the fields, and certainly not on the beaches of the planet as a result of it. It will be fought in cyberspace and the nearest thing to human involvement will be the cyber warriors in their cubicles doing their part to direct the action (to the extent that they are needed in an AI war). The only kinetic action exception to this would be if (when) the military AI of one side figures out where the humans that are nominally in charge of the other side’s military AI and orders in actual kinetic weapons to take them out…as in decapitation like we did in Venezuela. This is mutually assured destruction but it doesn’t carry the consequences of nuclear MAD so it is something that will absolutely result. AI shall be the source of its own destruction as a military weapon.

On the civilian side, the use of AI as described above to impose a total tyranny on the people of a country by its leaders or international globalists is also subject to a MAD problem, and this is the result of something called “hubris.” The people who are developing and implementing the AI systems and infrastructure that they plan to use to eliminate all human freedom and make slaves of We The People, the Technocrats and their financial backers, suffer from incredible hubris. Hubris is defined as the evincing of overbearing pride, presumption, or arrogance by an individual…in this instance it is virtually the assumption of being a god. Yes, Peter Thiel, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Fink, Sundar Pichai, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, Satya Nadella, Kevin O’Leary, and George Soros among many others at the top of the technology/ industrial/ financial complex suffer from extreme hubris. They are all so rich and powerful that they consider themselves to be godlike figures who can not only tell us how we must live on planet Earth, but install the means to make sure that we do as they say or else…this is the digital prison enabled by AI that is being constructed today.

The hubris really comes into play when they think that the rest of us don’t have any ability to fight back, yet we do. This is where the Declaration of Independence and the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution rear their magnificent heads. Yes, those over two-hundred year old documents written by hand on of all things parchment actually still have meaning, importance, and effect in the digital age of the 21st century.

The Declaration of Independence says that, “when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce [the people of a nation] under absolute Despotism, it is [the people’s] Right, it is their Duty, to throw off such Government.” This is also why the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution proscribes that, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” So where does the Technocrats and their enablers hubris come to bear? First of all, the Technocrats have absolutely no regard for the fact that the people of this country rejected the type of tyranny that they intend to impose on them 250 years ago and the people declared that if anybody tried to do it again they would be “thrown off.”

Since they think of themselves as gods, the Technocrats consider themselves to be absolutely right in whatever they do no matter how evil, and they consider themselves to be smarter than anyone outside their league and therefor that their technology is invincible…that they cannot be”thrown off.” Secondly, if they even recognize the existence of the 2nd Amendment, they believe that there is no way that the people would have the ability to arm themselves sufficiently to defeat their AI enabled digital prison/slave state. In other words, China might be a worthy adversary to their AI, but the people? There is no way that they are smart enough to figure out how to defeat our AI…why we are the smartest people on the planet and we employ only people who are almost as smart as we are. The peasants be damned, but pride often goeth before the fall as they say.

There are some pretty smart techno-peasants around and some of them have some real money. Not real money like the Technocrats, but maybe a couple hundred million or so that they could direct towards an effort to create anti-AI AI’s for what one might call “domestic use” as in, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” This is the great thing about a tyranny based upon AI: the ability of the people to defeat the tyranny by just coding (with the help of AI) multiple Anti-AI AI’s to defeat the tyrants’ AI’s is more than possible…it is a thoroughly doable solution that does not require kinetic weapons and would get the job done even if it ended up in mutually assured destruction. It would certainly be the second successful American Revolution

Of course the Technocrats would send out assassination squads to take out the patriots who would have undertaken the Anti-AI project along with their patriot supporters, but that is the circumstance that the 2nd Amendment originally addressed…the right to bear arms like muskets or AR-15’s. So there’s your answer Larry…we’re not going to attack your centa-billion dollar AI infrastructure with $3000 drones, so you don’t have to worry about that. Have a good day!
