• AI’s War on Independent Media, Creativity And The Human Spirit: It’s All by Design, With The Stage Being Set for Mass Depopulation

  The overarching goal of AI is to create dumbed-down useless eaters and mark them for death. ‘College students are rapidly losing the ability to read.’

  Bill Gates, Sam Altman and many other tech CEOs have recently come out with dire warnings that AI could pose cataclysmic threats to the survival of mankind, potentially killing off a billion or more people.

  Unless you’re in the military or live in a war zone where some Palantir-type targeting technology is in use, I would say the chances that AI is going to kill you are quite slim. But by getting us to focus on the unlikely “Terminator” scenario, the technocrats are able to mask the real issue, which is far more imminent.

  AI may not be coming for your life, but it is coming for your job. Not just your job but the future jobs of our children and grandchildren. And after it reaches a threshold of destroying a certain number of jobs, AI will have already accomplished its primary job, which is to set the stage and prepare the battlefield in such a way that the vast majority of humans will simply no longer be needed. We will have a planet full of so-called useless eaters.

  When enough people reach this dubious status, it destroys the functionality of societies. Radical solutions will then be proposed. As the Israeli futurist and historian Yuval Harari says, the only thing worse for the human psyche than feeling oppressed is to feel unneeded. Various groups of humans have been oppressed since time immemorial, but the mass formation of humanity feeling unproductive, worthless and devoid of hope? That’s relatively new, unchartered territory.

  The creative industries have been among the first to be struck down by AI. Writers, news reporters and editors, filmmakers, musicians, creative photographers, painters and other artists are seeing their work undermined by AI.

  I can tell you from personal experience of working with owners of conservative media, 75 to 80 percent of what you read on their platforms is AI slop. Many have fired their human producers and writers and replaced them with AI bots. This trend was at least partially responsible for driving me to Substack and journalistic independence. My services were no longer needed or wanted on several prominent conservative platforms as they found a cheaper alternative that could be counted on to always create content that agrees with their preconceived notions about the world. AI never questions. It never talks back. It follows strictly within the parameters you set for it. And it can churn out content much faster.
