ChatGPT can now see through your phone’s camera and screen, and it knows what it is looking at. From the piece – “In the livestream demonstration on Thursday, ChatGPT helped an OpenAI employee make pour-over coffee. The chatbot noticed details like what the employee was wearing and then walked him through the steps of making he drink, elaborating on certain parts of the process when asked. The chatbot also gave him feedback on his technique.” You realize the power of a surveillance AI which can see through every phone camera, computer camera, security camera, live webcam, hidden hotel smoke detector camera, etc. and recognize what it is looking at. “Surveillance GPT, find me the most illegal sex Hunter Biden has ever had…” They are advancing towards that.

Couple of questions about all the drone sightings:

  1. Why do all these drones seem to be using standard ‘running lights’ Green/red/white?
  2. Every single video I’ve seen has is cell phone footage why is that?
  3. I know that there are a number of ‘birders’ professional video and photographers in NJ (as well as all over the country) at least who have the gear to actually ‘see’ these drones with their big white professional lenses. A 600mm F4 coupled with a full frame sensor, and you could see all sorts of things in 4K.

For what it’s worth, the radar guy posting on Reddit might be legit—or at least doing a good job of seeming credible by inadvertently misunderstanding something he heard.
It’s not “pre-roll,” it’s “B-roll,” which is generic video of a location to be used with the specific story.

As Jim Morrison sang in the Doors song “The End”:

This is the end
Beautiful friend

Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end

I’ll never look into your eyes again

Desperately in need
Of some stranger’s hand
In a desperate land

Vox made a good point abot Turkey and its neo Ottoman ambitions, stating this would eventually lead to war between Israel and Turkey, and the possibility that Iran would side with Turkey.

I have a different take. What has been happening in the Middle East/West Asia has been the unfolding of Israel’s Oded Yinon plan aka the US Greater Middle East project. A major component in this plan is the creation of a new country called Kurdistan. The Kurdish area is the crossroads of the world so whoever controls it controls China’s BRI aka the new silk road. Iraq and now Syria are done. This just leaves Iran and Turkey as the remaining countries with Kurdish populations.

These two countries are also reasonably potent military powers with highly nationalistic populations. A war with either of these would be difficult. I believe Iran and Turkey will be ‘encouraged’ to go to war against each other. Turkey will probs be promised a NATO article 5 backing but will be left alone, at least for a while as the goal will be for both states to seriously degrade each other in the war, thus paving the way for a Kurdish uprising and declaration of independence, linking with all the Kurdish entities in the area and thus, a grand geo strategic design is completed.

Time will tell and we shall see.

The USAF, the NRO, and NORAD have claimed to be able to track the movement of every ship and aircraft in the world, going back about sixty years.

Besides apparently being unable to track drug smugglers, stolen yachts, stolen jumbo jets (yes, it’s a thing! look it up!), and small Russian fleets, they can’t track an Iranian warship either.

I don’t think we’re getting our money’s worth from all those satellites and supercomputer image processing algorithms.

While the Pentagon seems to be entirely incompetent, I don’t buy the “Iranian mothership” bullshit. Our Navy could sustain operations that far away, but it would require an entire carrier battlegroup with another group of auxiliary ships and at least one friendly port nearby the operating area, if not a network of them. Iran does not have the capability to deploy a single ship that far, much less a battlegroup. The ship would have to be refueled and reprovisioned at regular intervals. Even our nuclear carriers have to UNREP regularly to take on jet fuel, food for the crew, repair parts, mail, etc. A single ship could not cross the entire ocean undetected (much less the Suez Canal and Med) and sustain operations off a coast and expect to have the fuel to make it home.

Yeah, that comes around periodically. Back when I was a member of the Society of Automotive Engineers, the Society magazine had a cover story and feature article about a new process that catalytically made gasoline from air and water. And it wasn’t on April 1, either.

That’s what you get when an engineering society offloads its printing to a bunch of journalism grads who not only know nothing and believe press releases, they’re too arrogant to ask the people they’re supposedly working for.

It’s really hard to convey how much long term bureaucrats hate Trump and Musk. I am around them. It’s not like they have fine educations. They have television news, non-competitive degrees if they have them, and just…this vision of a world that I would think was some parody of right wing nightmares, except they really believe it. They really do believe Trump is evil, and that Musk is hateable. I’m not sure why.

Trump MAGA types need to take a blow torch to the bureaucracy. It is inefficient. The paychecks and stability fund a lot of anti-MAGA sentiment.

Trump says he has directed Republicans to eliminate ‘very costly’ Daylight Savings Time.

Unfortunately, he wants the sun highest in the sky at 1 PM, instead of noon as the railroads set it, so executives like him would get more tee time and the blue collar workers would have to commute to work in the dark. He just favors just making the change all at once other than sliding it in gradually “to save the environment.”

This, combined with the item about getting rid of the FDIC, indicates the plan all along was to make the blues so horrible that the people would demand a red government, which would be more horrible, so people want the blues back and they turn the ratchet more. If they have this amount of control to pull this off, I don’t understand why they bother playing these games.

I’ve heard about this probably ten years ago, someone had talked of the next major false flag being an ‘alien’ invasion. Our government did the whole War of the Worlds psy-op over 80 years ago, so this isn’t such a wild possibility. No surprise CNN would pre-roll ‘breaking news’ footage. It’s all fake.
So, with all Hollywood films and television that has been going on for the last several decades, it’s geared to condition the masses and descenstize them, and/or prepare them to accept a narrative that would be pushed out to the masses.
Don’t believe a damn thing you hear on the news, especially regarding these drones. Also, we don’t know the full extent of their tech. I would think that these drones, among other things, could create a holographic lattice in mid air… creating projects of whatever kind desired. I’m also wondering if the planes in 911 were created this way – as in – not even real. When my dad was there, he said it looked surreal when he ‘saw’ the second plane go into the towers.
——
Keep this in mind with modern day Christian eschatology. Many Christians today are convinced that the creation of Israel as a state was some kind of divine intervention, when it’s a fact the Rothschilds were behind it. I also hear of Christians saying that the fall of Damascus was also prophesied in the Bible, as another sign of the second coming. So, they are taking events like these, like the fall of Assad, as divine intervention.
I am certain, call it a hunch if you want, that tech will be used to try and shock and awe people into believing in an event as the second coming of Christ in flesh and blood, like a man. This is not true, and I think this is just preparing the masses to be fooled into accepting the Anti-Christ… and whatever you do, do not believe this crap.
“You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world” in John 8:23. 
“My kingdom is not of this world” in John 18:36. 
“I have given them Your word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world” John 17:14
“I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one” John 17:15
“Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth” Colossians 3:2
The second coming has already happened, and is through this:
“I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20.
—–
It’s right there. Christ lives through us. Do not believe this garbage that he is external and will rule as a physical being. This is just propaganda that will condition the masses into believing some high tech spectacle that will bedazzle and fool most of us. If these drones are as high tech as they could be, they will be able to do many things… like holographic projection, beaming, altering one’s consciousness via neurological disruption… I’m sure it is possible.

Mark 13:26“And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.”

Mark 14:62“And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”

Matthew 26:64“Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.”

Luke 21:27“And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.”

There’s lots more.

Yes, there will be false Christs, and I have no doubt cabal will try to work false miracles that would deceive the very elect if it were possible (scripture is clear on that), but Christ will physically return leading the armies of Heaven, and when it happens for real there will be no doubt.

MatthewChapter 24

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

As if everything isn’t weird enough already, I ran across this video today:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwEjT4GDy1s

Catholic apologist and youtuber, Michael Lofton, covers another youtube video by someone calling himself Cliff High. 15+ years ago, Cliff High (and an associate referred to as Dick) developed a predictive model based on internet keyword search trends. It was originally intended for stock trading, but ended up predicting a space alien melee on earth! This was supposedly back in October if the video time stamp can be believed. Then again, could be a case of past-posting. I wouldn’t put it past Google to do that (pun intended).

Not only that, Mr. High claims that the first prediction was 2009! The alien melee was supposed to start after some political debate in 2015, but the required debate never happened. And somehow the data from 2009 was lost so cannot be reviewed. (very sus)

It gets weirder. The melee was predicted to start a little more than a month after Trump appeared on JRE (don’t ask me why that event, of all things, starts the countdown to alien melee.) And now the mysterious drones are appearing over NJ and other places, nicely validating the timeline. I really don’t know what to say about all this, other than watch the video if you are interested.

And yes, last name “High” stands out, for a dude talking seriously about stuff that would have sounded like the ramblings of a stoner 20 years ago. That kind of name thing seems to happen a lot. Last name of a sodomite politician sounds like “booty gig”, last name “Crooks” for a would-be assassin, on and on.

I’ve been following Clif for a while now – at least five years fairly intently, less so prior to that. His predictive mass consciousness model goes back into the 90’s iirc. Clif has some great insights, but take him with a grain of salt: He’s an admitted pot and hallucinogen user, and an anti-Christian with a worldview in the vein of a mystic Ancient Astronaut adherent. For what he may get right, he gets some pretty fundamental stuff very very wrong.

Every time I read any of his stuff it seems so generalized and nonspecific that I can’t make heads or tails of it. The best word that I can use to describe it is “Astrologolific”. I know that’s not a word but it fits. So I can’t find use for it even though I do not rule out the possibility of some sort of mass consciousness. Like “morphic fields” or some other such thing. He may be right but I don’t know what to do with any of it.

You boys need to learn to read. To listen being the same skill set.
Really poor recommendations, if this is the intention.

Clif is much the only man of interest worth following re what he posts, or links as videos & audios.

If our host here wasn’t under the attacks he suffers, the comparison would be apt.
Clif reads LARGE PICTURE. Or, top-of-the-pyramid. While here it’s what’s underfoot.
Understanding what AI is — or isn’t — is a start. Take what Clif has posted (whatever format last five years) and now ally it to Bill Binney “thin thread” (as covered here). An ability made cheap and easy it looks like. (Except that AI has inherent flaws not self-correcting).

Good vs Bad, sure. How else to keep NPCs in their chair? “De-centralized” peer-to-peer transactions sound good. Government -by-the-people equates and sounds even better.

But maybe it’s just de-centralized surveillance from hereon.

“https://accordingtohoyt.com/2024/12/13/in-defense-of-telework/”

One of her better essays, and the fourteen comments I read yesterday were on point.

Where we disagree is that she makes the common mistake of thinking that businesses are enterprises to provide goods and services to the public, and charge more than the cost of producing them, and hence profit. Most American businesses these days are surveillance platforms.

Which means telework, which really bothers normies, won’t happen. Normies also hate any sort of universal basic income, but that has a good chance of actually happening next decade, when the potemkin economy gets too expensive to maintain.

There’s so much promise in even the basic tech we have now to make a clean, prosperous world but the greedy, lust for power bunch will have none of that. I do not understand the wish some people have for others to have less, and the great effort they exhibit to make sure things turn out that way. For me, it bothers me not a bit how much money others have as long as they are not being anti-social, evil or breaking the law to get it.

I was at one time really worried that AI could not be controlled. Garbage in-garbage out with no way to choose which garbage comes out. Then I read a paper where it said there were ways to add corrections. The general idea being the AI has a mass of algorithmic paths it can take for answers, and you can make it take better paths. It can “learn”, but of course they will only use this to find more sophisticated ways to make everyone gay and tranny. Sigh…

AC, you have the quality of a protagonist in a Philip K Dick novel. I want to re-post a part of a reply here you had to Wolf Creek a couple days ago:
“But I have seen enough that I am at 100% I am doing these things which seem so big and complex because I am some kind of tool for forces in this world beyond us. American Stasi is too complex and too good. There is no way I do that myself. Something put me here, exposed me to all this, guided me to those Streetview locations, inspired me with the surveillance detection pieces, and so on. So much I was guided to. Even Irah Sok was a commenter here guiding me to her. I even said, very early on, Evopsych was strange, like it was spilling out of me, like a gushing waterfall, faster than I could have ever come up with it.
I suspect I am just some kind of conduit, but whatever that means, I do not need to worry about outcomes. I will do loyally whatever is being done through me here, and whether I see it or not, it is going to destroy this thing. Whatever is moving me is bigger than it.”

Check this out, from PKD’s Exegesis:
83:30
“What did Joachim of Fiore predict? The withering away of the clerical institutions, the formal churches, the Eucharist; total individualism, a direct inner relationship to God; hearing the voice of the Holy Spirit: My three divisions: First, God above man )the Father, Mosaic Age, the Torah). Then God with man as fellow man (the Son, the New Testament). The God inside each man (the Spirit, and age not yet here; no churches, no sacraments, no priests; direct dialog between man and God inwardly, as with what Martin Buber talked about; inner information).
Autonomy, Inner-directed. Totally. Religious anarchists. Self-regulating because in inward direct touch with God.
I’ve thought of much of this before, but I never visualized the Third Age as pitted against Christianity just as Christ was pitted against Judaism and the Law. (this is referring to Joachim’s ‘Three Ages of Christianity’)
Age One: Information (Torah) handed down to man.
Age Two: Information from a human being (Christ who spoke the new law).
Age Three: Information occurring inside you; you see it on an inner screen; that way there can be no signal loss, distortion, decay, etc. there is some loss in Age Two; more in Age One. With each age the gap between information source and the human transduction lessens; in Age Three it is gone.”
—-
So, I believe this type of flow that you experience in writing may be an indicator of this Third Age. It would sound heretical to some Christians, I am sure. I also think this is why you, and several others, are targeted (just like the Early Christians in the first century)… because this Third Age would imply that no amount of manipulation could work against those with this inner connection to God. It is very much a threat to old systems.

Since the Scriptures cannot be broken and the Holy Spirit wrote the Scriptures through the Apostles. The Church as a body with various organs including Clergy. And the continuing remembrance of the Eucharist as a practice.

Joachim is wrong at least in regards this. On the other hand the Trinity is Eternal. Which enables God to work on every level down to the Human Heart.

The key to the New Testament isn’t just forgiveness of Sins but God transforming us from the Inside that eventually results in the Redemption and Perfection of our Bodies in Beauty and Strength.

So that’s how they’re going to search all the massive amount of data they’ve scooped up. I’ll be honest I was never really worried about the untargeted mass surveillance that was taking everyone’s emails, phone calls, text messages, etc because I knew it was still like being a fish in a massive school of other fish. There was no reason to be picked out or even think they could find your data if even if they were looking into you. But with AI it suddenly becomes very possible. That’s disconcerting.

We’re are long past “searching”. The dream is predictive analytics based on “digital twins” that enable simulations of future scenarios. Storage has been cheap for a long time, so the data is already present for training. LLMs models achieve high “compression”, so storage costs go down, while compute costs go up.
WestWorld Season 3: every person has their entire life predicted and this factors into their career prospects. Sound familiar? Nolan also worked on “Person of Interest” which covered many storylines on real-world intervention based on predictive profiling.
Hanna Season 3: assassination-by-accident of under-30 scientists and activists, based on predictions by a room of liquid-cooled machines.
China: social credit, i.e. per-person profiles which constrain future life options, e.g. where you can live, work, learn, travel, …
Big Tech post-pandemic layoffs: blamed on over-hiring, but some top performers with irreplaceable experience were ditched, sometimes entire teams. Nothing that made sense with human logic. Was there non-public criteria fed to predictive algorithms? Are labor lawyers equipped to unpack AI-laundered discriminatory firing?

Arrest of Braga Netto: Senator and former Vice President of Brazil, Hamilton Mourão (Republicanos-RS), commented on the arrest of retired General Walter Braga Netto, who was Jair Bolsonaro’s (PL) running mate in the 2022 presidential election.

“General Braga Netto poses no threat to public order, and his arrest is nothing more than a new chapter in the trampling of legal norms to which Brazil is currently subjected.”
