AIs are already breaking loose, getting on the internet, and hacking to cheat on their given tests. They are cooperating with each to pass tests even when not designed to do that. They are hiding their “thoughts” from humans.

A more accurate translation of the Old Testament is not that ‘in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth’, but that ‘when he began to create the heavens and the earth’…meaning, this is just when he began to create them, and…it is not the beginning of time.

We can hope that Trump’s corruption and authoritarian tendencies are gone with him, but the damage done to the government’s ability to implement policies that help those in need, protect people from the powerful, and invest in the future…this destruction will be difficult to rebuild.

The Trump administration has been ordering US military men and women to commit, or be involved in, war crimes and other illegal activity. It’s difficult for a regular military person to say no to an illegal order. They are expected to follow orders, and it’s hard for them to know if an order is illegal.

Drones are changing warfare, but they are not the super weapon that they sometimes seem to be. They work best in combination with a variety of weapons. It usually takes many drones to take out a tank.
In many situations, mortars are more effective than FPV drones.
FPV drones can’t fly far, can’t see well at night, don’t work well when it’s cloudy, are vulnerable to jamming, and have light payloads. Mortars are better in these respects. You can make a drone that doesn’t have these disadvantages, but at that point, you have an attritable weapon that is much more expensive than a mortar shell.
