when, or more likely how often, have we been warned against putting a computer at any level in charge of the military? ("yeah but that's all been fiction, up to now, and that isn't printed on the back of a whiskey bottle so hegseth hasn't read it") ...seem to recall the real threat is when the 'master control program' was itself written by computer which was written by computer... aka 'grok' @#$!

This is leadership, just not in an optimal direction.

'This is not leadership. It is outsourcing judgment to a system that cannot reliably distinguish between fiction and fact, irony and intent, or safety and spectacle. '

Are we still talking about the AI or the current administration?

Grok is the perfect patsy. Here's why;

Scenario: Grok AI is activated in the Pentagon. President Trump keeps up his rhetoric about taking Greenland for America "The hard way". Grok AI being a large language model program determines that "The hard way" means using force. Grok AI in the Pentagon assembles military forces to take Greenland "The hard way". Grok AI initiates the invasion and authorizes the troops to take Greenland "The hard way".

After the successful Invasion and subsequent war with the NATO countries begins, the Trump administration blames Grok. Grok is the perfect patsy.
