Just in case

 


you cant tell?

It's just an unmitigated disaster

everywhere you look.


Amos 5:18-19


Woe unto you 

that desire the day of the Lord

to what end is it for you? 

the day of the Lord 

is darkness, and not light.


19 As if a man 

did flee from a lion, 

and a bear met him; 

or went into the house, 

and leaned his hand 

on the wall, 

and a serpent bit him.


Aint no escape

anywhere you go...


Father of creation

got you hemmed in...


And it's just getting started...


Hegseth gives Anthropic until Friday 

to back down on AI safeguards

AXIOS 2/24/26


"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth gave Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei until Friday evening to give the military unfettered access to its AI model or face harsh penalties, Axios has learned."


"The big picture: Hegseth told Amodei in a tense meeting on Tuesday that the Pentagon will either cut ties and declare Anthropic a "supply chain risk," or invoke the Defense Production Act to force the company to tailor its model to the military's needs."


"Anthropic has said it is willing to adapt its usage policies for the Pentagon, but not to allow its model to be used for the mass surveillance of Americans or the development of weapons that fire without human involvement."


(That has never ever not once ever worked like that.

And it wont this time either.

US government gonna get it 

and then do what you tell them 

what they can do with it?

Show me where that has ever existed.)


"Anthropic's Claude is the only AI model currently used for the military's most sensitive work."


"How it works: The Defense Production Act gives the president the authority to compel private companies to accept and prioritize particular contracts as required for national defense."

"It was used during the COVID-19 pandemic to increase production of vaccines and ventilators, for example."

"The law is rarely used in such a blatantly adversarial way. The idea, the senior Defense official said, would be to force Anthropic to adapt its model to the Pentagon's needs, without any safeguards."


(I reiterate:


"It's just an unmitigated disaster

everywhere you look."


"The Pentagon has been speeding up conversations with OpenAI and Google about moving their models — already available for unclassified uses — into classified systems, sources tell Axios."

"One source familiar with the discussions said that right now, it appears Claude is ahead of the others in a number of applications relevant to the military, such as offensive cyber capabilities."

"The one source said Gemini is seen as a potential replacement if and when a deal is reached. That would require Google to let the Pentagon uses its model for "all lawful purposes," the same terms that Anthropic rejected."


That never happens either.

It never ever stops at:

"all lawful purposes"


We had unlawful wiretapping and crap 

going back to Nixon...
