Letting the fox guard the hen house

They hadn’t integrated AI into their decision tree in order to strike. This is entirely the fault of humans. AI don’t give assessments in that field. AI may give identification on these assets, (It’s 3x adult males) but the person monitoring that AI is the one who makes assessments. I know this was planned but it wasn’t integrated when I was in the know.

All a LLM would be able to do is identify what type of boat there is and a guess on how many people there were. Not who those people are. At least not for people who are unimportant as these people were to grand scheme of operations. It may be able to identify a high value individual (HVI) but that sort of person would never be a drug runner

The assessor would keep a more reliable tally of people. People much higher up the chain would be the ones to actually call for the strike though.

The US military was trying to integrate AI into their workflow but in ways that actually make sense. The people who are actually responsible for the integration of things into combat systems are really freaking smart. (It’s not the same as that 36-year-old Master Sergeant who thinks that the best part about AI is making music that doesn’t know the meaning of structure) The military also has an institutional conservatism where they don’t want to make changes that are really stupid so they have to plan out everything. That’s one of the many reasons why it costs so much to procure anything.

I remember when Trump first came onto the scene and one of the things he was really good at was monopolizing all the attention. I really wonder if all this attention on figures like Hassan is just playing into their hands. After all, they do say that there is no such thing as bad publicity

It would be really funny if New York Governor Hochul named it Lake Ontario again

Looks like the president wants his bonds shaken not stirred

This is what happens when you run wartime Ops and you forget to run wartime logistics. It’s partially to do with bad decisions from 20 or 30 years ago where they gutted the merchant Marine. and engage in really stupid wars of choice

Huh. I used to use the laundromat a few doors down. There are some great places in traverse City that we can go to anyway. We’ve got a good trans/LGBT in general Community there. And we give each other business recommendations. Granted, I never got a haircut there but I’m trying to get more hair.

But he’s not poor, which makes all the difference in the world. In America we especially hate poor immigrants

As we know, the pentagon has a shortage of SCIFs. They just had to take the press office

Ideologically aligned is not quite accurate. I’ve met a couple of academy grads (and many military officers in general) and they’re generally pretty smart. Much smarter than JD Vance is. Some may be aligned ideologically, but I would say that most of them are probably not. It’s a 4-year pipeline too like any college, so they would have joined in 2022.

They have been noticing the attacks of the Trump administration on higher academia. They’ve been noticing the failures of the Trump administration in foreign policy. They’ve noticed the focus on trying to get rid of the queers and women instead of legitimate Force structure reform.

They’ve taken civics classes and understand how the government is supposed to work much more than the general population. They might not yell and protest JD Vance, but I don’t think many want to endorse him either.

The civil Rights movement managed to use that type of crackdown to show the nation the sheer tension of racial discrimination. I will not say it is a good thing that police crackdown on protestors, but the police can be useful. Just like they were in Birmingham in 1964 when images of police beating and arresting women and children circulated the national media. Indeed, the same sort of thing happened with Alex Pretti and Renee Good during the Minneapolis ICE protests.

I listen to it all the time!!

I love that show! Remember that one time when he said “where are my pants?” Cracks me right up

Isn’t this a violation of the 10th amendment?

What’s the house of representatives supposed to do? Represent the people? Next you’ll be telling me that we have a system of checks and balances in the government

There are many things to say about billionaires, but today, I will celebrate with my queer brothers and sisters

Strategically transfer equipment to alternate location

Was the FIFA Peace Prize not good enough?

I’m pretty sure he’s going to be fine

Holy anachronism! Is that brass?
