Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way that seems right to a man but the end thereof are the ways of death." AI could "reshape economies, geopolitics, education, culture, arts, and even the essential meanings of human creativity, responsibility, and discovery. It is potentially the ultimate pivot from “human-driven advancement” to “machine-accelerated civilization,” Jeff states and I'm all for it providing God is given the glory for it and it is used to show men their need for a Savior who is Christ Jesus, the Way, the Truth, the Life. Happy Thanksgiving C&Cers!
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Proverbs 9:10. Unless AI's foundation is TRUTH as found in the Word of God, the Bible, its foundation is sand not rock. The wise man built his house on the rock, but the foolish man built his house on the sand which led to its destruction. Matthew 7:24-27. Input equals output. We just had a COVID shot that changed how Almighty God created the immune system. What possibly could go wrong with this?
Have a thank full and gracious meal tomorrow and everyday. God has provided for our most necessary need, salvation from the wrath of God on those who have refused to kiss the Son in love and obedience.
I looked it up, past verse 30, those are verses from the apocrypha. Like the other OT books like Tobit & Maccabees. They weren’t in the Hebrew Bible or not quoted as other Old Testament writings by Jesus or His disciples. You usually find them in Catholic or Orthodox bible versions.
"British Intelligence and Redacted came to the aid of a one man political party in New York City and turned it into a 'Nazi Menace' receiving media attention and Congress produced a report on 'hate groups' that are a danger to 'Democracy'.
British Intelligence spent much time to infiltrate the nationalist movement during and after WWll."
Spending trillions on science research brought us the newly christened "turbo cancer" and nary a government captured research scientist can identify the cause, though I think I did hear some speculation that is was due to ozone depletion...or was it tight fitting shoes?....Ah, my memory is slipping again. I'm no expert, but I can moderately navigate a plot graph and, on a good day, exert a bit of ciphering. I reckon it was from sheeple "following the science." That’s not to say I won't be going up a half in shoe size. I'm no dummy......... Oh, that's right...it was Ostriches! Damnable things. Well, there you have it. Mystery solved.
I think I'm good with no new drugs since the ones we have are on the whole doing more harm that good - as RFKjr says - we need to convert our health care from sickness care to prevention and cure which typically have nothing to do with drugs
I took my wife to her GP last week. I mentioned that she has Dr. Jekyl, Mrs. Hyde episodes since weaning herself off of the last 25mg of Zoloff, a common side effect when ending Zoloff. He immediately offered to put per back on Zoloff. She declined his offer. It is bad enough getting off of it once.
Her Pharmacist is the same way. Last year she stopped one of the drugs she was taking and he immediately offered to switch her to another drug treating the same condition. He would even coordinate with her Doctor. No dice she said, she wanted off.
I hoping RFK will lead the way in a new era of better drugs, and more conscientious prescribing of drugs.
Fred: Prayers and thanksgiving to your wife and you for walking this road with her. She has chosen the correct, but difficult, path. May God bless you both.
Praying for your wife to stay strong and to do what she and you feel you need to do. These are hard to get off of but love and Jesus can get you through it! 🙏🏼
Dr. Roger McFillin has featured a number of people who have tapered off or have helped others taper off psychoactive drugs on his Radically Genuine podcast. It's well worth listening to. Because of his influence, I was able to help my daughter taper off Effexor.
good for her - the long term effects of bombarding your body with chemicals are not something doctors or pharma want to talk about - Dr. Mercola and others have cited studies that conclude that sunlight, exercise, stress management, and a clean diet have the same or better results as drugs but obviously without the long term side effects. - might want to consult an Integrative or Ayurvdevic practitioner for a detailed program of healing - good luck
We have had "better drugs" for over 90 years, now. They work in minutes instead of days and don't have side-effects. These drugs use electronics and are called Frequency Medicine. Anyone can have them and use them. They were proven to cure Cancer in a 1934 clinical trial. It's a proven technology that has been suppressed by big pHARMA, but available to anyone. harmonicresearch.org
I’m as leery of drugs as the next guy. As a Public Service Announcement, I would caution people to be careful when stopping drugs. Some drugs need to be tapered off very carefully or serious, even life-threatening, side effects can occur.
In a similar vein:
Many years ago I got caught in a multi-mile backup on the interstate due to a wreck. I had a lady friend as a passenger who had a chronic health issue. She took a drug that had to be taken on a strict schedule or she could go into seizures. Having an AWD vehicle, I drove a few miles down the grassy median carefully, much to the annoyance of other stopped vehicles, e.g. being careful to not hit the kids playing in the grass. I don’t know if I saved her life, but I saved us both probably several hours of time. I “got away with it” but if I’d been stopped by the cops, I figure the “medical necessity” cited above would have been acceptable excuse.
Ah man, I see this to-to often!! I will be praying she finds peace soon. That God will fill her with HIS peace. Especially since the evil from where our medicine went is probably part of her anxiety! You sound like a wonderful husband and I hope she thanks God for you.
An incredibly tall order. Could take a generation to come to fruition….if at all. The Establishment is MASSIVE in scope. Every person of significance in government is on a leash of varying lengths. Time will tell. It'll take more than a couple of guys in high positions.
Those were my thoughts exactly. How are they going to do age verification? Facial recognition, fingerprints, eye scanners? That will put kids right in the cyber surveillance system.
AI could do it but if it's programmed by the likes of Google and Microsoft, you can expect AI to develop new and improved vaccines, not cancel anything. Yes, AI might see that we ALL need to have a digital ID embedded under our skin, for our own good, of course.
The spike in searches of this person’s name in the hours before the attack means the people who knew this was going to happen were searching to see if he had completed his task. A known CIA asset who was a trained member of a covert unit of assassins. Make no mistake, whether he came to the US on an SIV visa or humanitarian parole, he has a sponsor (handler) & a detailed dossier. They know exactly who he is - the question is who was he working for on this operation?
The recent thing in Venezuela, the cartels control of so many countries... and the CIA's involvement... appalling... and scary. I thought the Forbidden news article was pretty compelling...
We are the cartels going up to Pfizer. He is just an Mkultra dude tied to Thanksgiving. It must be poppy season again in Afghanistan. Time to reopen the base. Dudes manifesto next.

It's important to keep a critical mind. This blog is interesting in that matter:
Could just be another Y2K. I’m not going to worry about it until I’m crouched down in the ruins of a smoldering skyscraper breathing through a respirator and dodging laser beams coming from a UFO hovering above me.
There is always a choice; may not be a good choice but always a choice. I can easily live without a cell phone and computer if needs must. I did it before and can do it again.
Not so easy anymore. I recently traveled and you need that phone to veryify you exist to these systems. You can't go down to the airline office and buy a ticket anymore. You have to do it on line.
not true. if we use cash instead of digital money (credit cards) and enough of us do so in overwhelming numbers we can stop the control of our private transactions which is the final nail in the digital slave system coffin. wouldn't hurt to quit supporting those who are rushing these things thru. ck all your investments and clean out those in the super banks, Military Industrial AI Pharma stocks etc., pass local laws. for way more ways to beat this go to Solari.com or any of Catherine Austin Fitts talks interviews shows
My bank will not even break a bill unless I give them my personal information or swipe my ATM card. I break all my bills at stores while shopping. Even then, you are being recorded on video. We live in a surveillance state and there is no escape; all your devices record you. Your cellphone, computers and TVs have cameras watching you. They all record audio and mobile electronics can track you as can your car.
And don't think turning off the camera on your device will help. I have my computer's camera covered, but when I get in front of it, even to the side, the screen comes back up for me to log on. So it obviously has another camera just for the computer to use.
I put blue tape over the atm camera when using. In airplane mode most of the time. Use faradaybags as well. Cover my computer camera as well. My car is old with no tech so that is helpful.
I put black nail varnish on my 'selfie-camera' and use a case that has a door for the main camera so that is hidden unless I want to use it. As for audio - I know you can't guarantee the phone is off when 'turned-off' - it just means you can't use it yourself haha...
put a piece o opaque tape over the camera lens. Black Gorilla brand tape is thick,absolutely opaque, and will peel away leaving no residue.
I stared that during da Coe Vid madness when so many demanded video "chats" etc instead o mug to mug. When challenged, I'd just tell them "I have NO CLUE why my camera does not work". Whaddardeygonnadoo? Send a masked tech round to my house to inspect?
I'm in the process of doing that, but i don't think it will make any difference. I think the reason they are asking for ID is because the government forces them to ask for it. It is the same reason that if you deposit more than $10k into your bank account, they will hold it until they make certain it isn't drug money and you aren't a drug pusher. Yeah, they do that.
I have a faraday sleeve that my cell goes in unless I'm using it. It doesn't connect to towers until I take it out. I also have a little velcro button over the camera on the face of my phone and a case in the back.
Catherine is amazing with her knowledge. Tucker just had a podcast on investing some in gold and silver. Very interesting podcast. He is part owner of the company.
Without real money in gold and/or silver coinage, and redeemable gold and/or silver certificates for metal we will be locked into the slave monetary system. You are right. But cash has to be more than fiat or digital fiat.
Yes I listen to Fitz. The day will come when cash is of zero value. Then what do you do? Short of a revolution this will not change. I’m trying, but not enough are.
Grok lies all the time to me. Grok even doubles down and lies more. Grok is really good at lying and seems like what it says is real, except I know it is false and tell Grok it is false, once doubling down doesn't get me to agree, Grok admits its mistake, but still lies. Lies like a politician.
Yes!!! Thank you!. It is terrifying to think of AI doing gain of function research and inventing bio weapons. And I think the energy secretary is full of beans. Cheaper energy? No way. AI is going to require more energy than anything we have ever ever known. I remember reading recently that we must quickly build at least 70 nuclear power plants. Nuclear power is the most expensive to create per kilowatt, and insurance companies don’t want to touch those plants. And AI is going to need huge amount of water. I know I can’t stop this train, I’m just glad I lived many years before this stuff started coming at us. Sorry about the glass half empty.
Yes, LOTS OF WATER. I was watching a show about AI and the amount of water needed to run it is egregious. So what happens during a drought-we die from dehydratioin but AI gets water? I have 2 words for that and it is not Happy Thanksgiving. Having said that Blessed Thanksgiving to you Kathy:}
Also, AI as we know it thus far is unreliable, completely unscientific, and simply cannot be trusted. Unless they're creating an entirely new version that does not have access to Reddit or other internet slum holes, what is the point? Seems like an energy and resource-wasting dead end to me.
I didn't say social media. Look up the stats on where current AI is gathering it's info. #1 source is reddit. If you read my comment, I said a new system is needed or else we're in the same, non-fiction reality.
I only have theories but I think JD! Is the one that's really on the tech bro side, not Trump and hopefully Trump is able to keep them from becoming some out of control surveillance apparatus
AI, like money, whether used for good or ilk, is dependent on the consciousness of the people using it. Given the state of the globalists’ wet dream of total global control, their agenda is marching forward at warp speed. Is AI their weapon of mass destruction? Does the past predict the future? It does if there isn’t a change of consciousness involved.
Check out Rudolph Steiner’s take on the antiChrist: AI, which he called Ahriman.
IMO it’s not about a glass half full or half empty. That engenders polarization & not seeing the big picture. Maintaining a witness/observer state of mind is essential so that one can see the whole situation without judgment (polarization, usually with emotion involved) vs. discernment (wisdom).
Wishing a HAPPY & BLESSED THANKSGIVING to one & all!
Howdy do, Merry! Isn't that always the conundrum?....Anything/Everything created for the purposes of good is unceremoniously hijacked by those with less than admirable intentions. Such is the state of humanity.
My Grandma used to say (quoting a close friend of color)… “sometimes people just ain’t no damn good!” Seems wise and stands the test of time well I say. But as she was quick to add … but then Christ! Enjoy your turkey Eric et. al..
Yes! Dark Journalist on YouTube has covered Steiner extensively. You can peruse his body of work. Daniel Lieszt is an accomplished journalist & covers many pertinent topics, including interviews with people like Dr. Joseph Farrell. Check him out!
No, authoritarian government and techno-fascist brownshirts forced that on us, threw people out of work, shut down businesses, schools, churches and all forms of socialization, ostracized and censored those who refused to conform over a disease that was rarely deadly and not very contagious. This was all a government action using Covid as an excuse.
Unmistakable correlation, indeed! The "shot" vs "turbo cancer" (cause & effect) is UNMISTAKABLE if one is willing to just look at the stats; NOT the phony Pharma statistics, but the real statistics that can be found just about anywhere nowadays other than on the MSM outlets. For example, Steve Kirschsubstack.
Pharma has grudgingly admitted, very quietly, that there "may be" a correlation resulting in "ONLY 1 in a 1,000 people having adverse effects" from getting "the shot," so don't you worry your silly little self." "Nothing to worry about. Nothing to see here. Move along."
I posted this in the main comments, but give my apologies for reposting in a higher comment for the sake of visibility:
Occultists like to tell you what their going to do in an oblique way. This way, when you dismiss it, you are complicit in your own deception, making it more effective.
The tech bros are all deep into technocracy and theosophy. They are new age occultists.
Genesis Mission seems to me to be a counterfeit of the beginning in which this time, man creates god.
One day, the words of Revelation 13:15 will be fulfilled:
"And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast . . ."
My positivity is in Christ Jesus, and not in the world or anything in it. He will deliver me from these things, through these things, or into His presence. No matter how these developments play out.
Indeed, this reminds me of all the cautionary tales about G5, only it now seems to be given the ultimate imprimatur by President Trump. Is he unconsciously going in the direction of WEF by doing exactly what the globalists desire for the future of mankind? Is this all for good or…?
Something about those ostriches is the fact that they have antibodies that can kill off coronaviruses once and for all. It’s why they had to be destroyed apparently. Those in the know believe Big Pharma (government) are behind the slaughter that happened in BC a couple of weeks ago. Mustn’t allow a cure.
I talked to my mum about coming off statins, I don't think she takes them anymore - but doesn't want to get nagged by her doctor. She continues to collect them from the pharmacist with her other medications :rolleyes:
I know a few people who do that…the doctor in these cases is not pursuing a cure but a dependency, or in the case of statins, stay away if you don’t want dementia.
I just don't call the drugstore to order the new bottle. When the doc starts in on me i just tell him "it wasn't doing a lick o good, so I'm done". I've dumped a couple who insist or demand I take it all. Pos major surgery they sen me home with mrphine,codeine, etc. Never took one pill. I healed up surprisingly quickly I am convinced the narcotics actually overload the system interphering with healing.
There a point and a good one to what you say. And we are not dealing with the United States of yore. There are massive 'structural impediments in insufficiencies' which must be overcome.
These "structural impediments in insufficiencies" were created that way. We don't need AI to tell us our world could be better. We know that and scientists know that, too. Still, this is the world we live it.
I thought all coffee caused cancer??Must depend on which science one subscribes to and the month. 😁 It all seems a bit contradictory, or rather, like flat out Hail Mary guesswork OR bullshit altogether. 👈
Coffee depletes vitamin B1 in the body. Vitamin B1 deficiency creates a multitude of symptoms which are ignored and treated separately instead of as a whole.
Vitamin B deficiency, "the great imitator." Dr Berg covers it very well.
This is it, isn't it. Our dear president presents the future of AI, with Larry Ellison standing by to announce AI as the imminent cure for cancer. Wonderful, until you realize that we will go down the same road, into the same closed loop, 'the science' that narrowly pursues causes and drugs to fight genetic and viral disease. To explore the truth about the toxic mental and physical environment around us will be specifically excluded, as it is now. Definition of closed loop: "an automatic control system in which an operation, process, or mechanism is regulated by feedback [from within the closed loop]". This is the ‘autophagous (self-devouring) loop’ of AI which leads ultimately and inevitably to nonsense and madness. The imaginary pandemic is a perfect example of an obsessive closed loop, a threat appearing to manifest ‘outside’ us, in our culture, world, our bodies, and endlessly propagated, viral, especially in ‘the news', Newspeak. Nothing new, just part of a projected story, narrative, a lie replicating itself, which has no existence or reality outside of the authorized narrative, with one purpose, mind control and profits.
AI will use the information provided to it by us mere meat machines so will it decide as the meat did, that there's too many people on the planet and as one of it's priorities, cook up another fix like the jabs to remedy that? The one designed by AI will really get the job done. Will it decide that we must all drive EVs to save the planet because the information it was given states that CO2 is the cause of all our climate ills? Call me a glass half empty person, if you'd like, but I see placing all our trust in "smart" machines programmed by the same not-too-smart guys that have been running science for decades as dangerous.
Reading Of Plymouth Plantation when I was studying for my MA in English Lit was such a revelation. They had the ideal situation for socialism to succeed if it ever could, and it was a miserable failure. People willingly moved outside the safety of the colony, genuinely risking death, rather than have the fruits of their hard work go to lazy neighbors. There's a reason they do not teach this history in schools, because it's the most damning evidence that socialism actually destroys a society.
which is why in he second year those who survived the socialist boondoggle all divided up the land, each taking their own and managing it themselves. That year and every year since they had increased prosperity, and thrived.
Seems the designated leaders got to studying the Scriptures and realised socialism is NOT scriptural, so they tossed it.
Something else most people don't know is how racist many of the places in New England were. Boston was notorious, and even Maine had their share of it. The governor signed an order in 1912 to expel all of the mixed breed inhabitants of Malaga Island in Casco Bay. Their crime? He thought they would not be a good look for the planned campaign to bring in more tourists to the state. Even dug up and moved the graves there. And then there are the witch trials . Now that's not a good look
Evidence the Pilgrims were racist . . . ? What groups were around them for them to exhibit racism, given they were assisted by the native population and interacted with it via Squanto's services? Are you saying you are wholly tolerant of those who do not believe as you do? Sounds to me as though you might be quite intolerant of those who believe the Bible.
Yup. So called witches were often herbalists and midwives. It was thought that since they had the power to sometimes heal people or bring new lives into the world, that somehow when things went wrong and people got sick or died, that it was also their doing .They were the first holistic medical practitioners. There is a saying “Modern medicine is built on the ashes of witches.”
Good for you that you have friends and family who won’t exile you to the outer darkness for sharing something that might challenge their dearly held world view.
But then I live in a blue bubble community where new-think is the only think and historical facts are verboten. Being a friend or family member cuts no ice with these people.
Never forget those religious extremest were essentially booted out of Europe, so they came here to practice their own brand of religious extremism. I once asked a German friend if there were still quakers in Germany. She laughed, and said, "no we sent them all to you".
"In the autumn of 1620, a group of Christians fleeing persecution for their faith by the English Crown took ship on the Mayflower, intent on establishing in the New World a perfect society where all people would be free to worship as they wished."
The Nobel prize winning miracle drug Ivermectin works as an antiviral, anticancer, is part of a Lyme Disease cure protocol, and even reverses dementia, all while having a safety profile that is far superior to aspirin or any “vaccine” for that matter....
This has already been done, along with identifying numerous other natural and chemical compounds that help. There are numerous articles on substack outlining how medical researchers, at least the free thinkers, are already using AI to identify cures hidden in plain sight, but buried in thousands of studies.
Yup. Dr. Kory and Dr. Merik (sp?) are part of a small team that started this about a year ago. Dr. Kory published a 'Stack showing how they used AI as a collaborator, including identifying it's programmed bias and learning how to eliminate the bias from the results.
They first repeated their COVID research that lead to Ivermectin's discovery/use (sans AI) to learn the bias and how best to work with it. Think more like a research librarian (that's how I think of it). Then they dug into the cancer research...
They shared the results from AI with the team, and as you might expect team members had direct experience with drugs in the same class that were actually superior to the ones listed by the AI. When they fed that back into the AI results, predicted outcomes improved still further.
In my view, AI's biggest promise is to dramatically speed up collaborations among elite expert researchers on the most complex problems the world would like to solve.
I don't think people realize the significance of this in all industries, but specifically healthcare, if it is done correctly. I can pass along studies, patents, case studies etc. on ivermectin, fenbenzadole, DMSO, supplements, etc. curing nearly every disease/ailment, but because it doesn't come from their doctor, it is dismissed. Doctors don't have the time to research. AI will give them an instant response and it will allow patients to do the same.
In addition, many products/patents are purchased and then shelved simply to prevent the competition from having it. And many treatments for rare diseases are never marketed out to doctors because there isn't enough of a customer base to justify the cost.
Some examples:
In 2021, Johns Hopkins acquired a use patent on Menbenzadole for glioblastomas (brain tumor)
And then there is this which sounds like a medbed to me. (He's made a remarkable recovery)
What if the premise is wrong? What if the tumor isn't the problem but rather the result of another root cause issue? There is a theory floating around in the ether of the interwebs that suggests the tumors are something the body does to protect itself from invaders such as parasites.
Could it be that Ivermectin is only doing the same job it has been doing so well for so long? Perhaps the AI will ask the question: What are the incidences of cancer in populations that regularly take Ivermectin?
This article shows me, personally, why it's necessary for me to read. I admit to being on the pessimistic side of the AI revolution, probably because I'm 70 years old and still struggle to adhere to Microsoft Windows updates. But Mr. Childers gives me hope in being able to explain exactly why this new EO from the greatest President ever is so important. I'm very grateful the day before Thanksgiving for his ability to break things down to an understandable place.
3... how about one that began at 6 pm and ended at 10 pm, black and white even though the shows scrolled Technicolour.... and no I wasn't raised in a cave 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm 62. I'm an elite complex problem solver by day. And I'm right there with y'all... I can understand it, but I cannot explain it like he does very often. And certainly not with as much entertainment value.
"Plus, for three centuries, every leap in science has been greeted with existential dread— and yet, each time, humanity has somehow survived in one piece. "
I have to point out this is classic survivor bias. If we had experienced existential failure, we wouldn't be around to bemoan that particular leap in science.
Sorry. I remain unimpressed with AI when AI's first source online is Reddit followed by Wikipedia. AI is created by us and I do not think will go beyond its creators unless its creators teach it a new algorithm -- then it's still created by us. The scary thing is the PEOPLE writing the programs. But all the same, it's still the old garbage-in-garbage-out. Let us hope that the software writers do not put in too much garbage.
I think Trump places too much faith in technology, and maybe not enough in human beings. What we really need is a renaissance of humanity.
Right, it needs to be trained on source materials, the non-industry funded ones, not the 'reporting' on those studies. A recipe for spiraling down a very black hole otherwise
This is now and will continue being done. There will always be a use case for propaganda, but for real issues the experts know ALL the info is needed for the best outcome. And the same experts know cross-referencing your results with multiple AI sources reveals discrepancies that can then be adjusted for.
But I agree, AI's not likely to become much of a force to manage everything absent human input. That doesn't concern me much. What I do worry about is AI decision making in military and police applications...
I use AI on complex problems that far exceed those most people will ever want to attempt to solve. It's a tool to make good and elite folks much, much more efficient. But it's not the only tool, nor is it the only tool...
I've messed around with AI and it's not the smartest in the room. As many have said, Reddit is the first source it checks. I do believe Elon the Martian knows this and is focused on fixing it.
We are in the "which platform will win -- beta or VHS?" Phase. As we discovered, the best one did not win. VHS is not superior.
On another note... Can we get AI to focus on Congress? That "blue slip" sleight of hand they pulled to relieve Comey and James is so wrong, so venal, and so milquetoast GOPe that I threw a slipper at my laptop when I read it. Shame on Grassley and the rest of the swamp. Way to shoot yourself in the foot on the way to the finish line. Stupid stupid stupid Congress critters.
Ooooh I like the idea of having AI look at congress. Maybe it can suggest some legislation that appeals to the middle 80% of the country. I know, I know, wishful thinking.
Superior technology always seems to lose to the cheaper variety.
MCA lost to EISA, Token Ring was taken down by Ethernet, SCSI gave way to USB. Till the iPhone, even Apple gave way to the inferior products driven by Microsoft. It goes on and on.
The dumbest version of AI is sure to win the inevitable personality contest. It will use the most energy, consume the most water, and produce the worst overall results.
The simple fix for Congress is to make a simple rule:
All bills must be written by the hand of the person that introduces it. Each bill must be read aloud and heard by anyone voting for or against it. The penalty for breaking this rule should be the same as for any student that cheats. Expulsion. Expulsion from Congress and polite society.
Agree. Congress, indeed our entire government -- elected and administrative -- is hopeless. I consider taxes as a kind of ransom: We pay, they leave us alone -- at least for the time being.
I do note that when AI, after an extensive survey of the "data", concluded that "global warming" did not exist, the politicians changed the data input to reflect their view and get the right "answer." AI is quickly becoming useless. Just another tool of the powerful to control the powerless.
Amen!!! You nailed the Achilles heel, Diane--GIGO (Garbage-in, garbage out). Until all the datasets that AI draws from are cleaned up, any research findings would be suspect.
The people who created AI are, essentially, idiots. So we've got Artificial Idiocracy pretending to be 'intelligence'. It's the aggregation of the lower realms of consciousness which worship machines and the all-consuming power of materialism into an automated STASI with neither love nor mercy.
I said something similar above in response to Eric's comment. I simply cannot get myself behind any AI being good enough to actually be helpful after all the nonsense we have seen up to this point. A unique and brilliant code is needed for a better version of what we know as AI for it to be trusted. And I don't have the faith to trust any of it regardless.
Googling "China data centers" and "social credit score" I learned that China runs their sicial credit score system on the 500 or so data centers in that country. Why does USA need 5,000 or so data centers?
To collect every single detail about YOU and ME and everyone else. That's a lot of data centers. It's all a big mistake. They are busy building data centers all over Northern Virginia, and tried to put on in Albemarle County, VA where I live. They are hugely wasteful, requiring millions of gallons of water for cooling, and either a rebuilt electrical grid or a small nuclear power plant to power them.
And I suspect that people will start moving away from digital everything. I don't even use youtube anymore since it is chock full of Deep Fakes. Nothing is real, and people are turning away from it -- especially the Gen Z generation.
Terrifying thought. I brought up something like this to our County supervisors as they were considering a data center in our county. Since they seemed to be proposing to take the required water from our reservoir, I asked them: In an "emergency," who gets the water? The people, or the data center? This is especially relevant during a drought period, which is what our area is going through now.
AI and Presuppositions: If AI is limited by the same presuppositions as its programmers or the scientists asking it questions, we can expect rapid results that mirror previous results. One might suggest removing presuppositions as a control variable.
"AI, assuming that evolution is a bunch of nonsense, try to find a likely cause for 'antibiotic resistant' bacteria.
AI's first problem is and will always be money, the love of which is the root of all evil. Lots of money is its first and most important input. Love of humanity only comes from the creator never from the created.
In a fit of insanity today, I asked AI about fascism. The FIRST crazed editorial it pulled out was "right-wing", even though no dictionary definition mentions anything about it being a left-wing or right-wing political movement. It's obvious who programs AI. AND, it will not respond to fact and logic, it will deflect and feint and outright lie to maintain its leftist bias.
A good search to see the insanity in the machine: what lasting innovations have arisen from sub-Saharan Africa. It'll fight like the devil before admitting that the answer is NONE.
That's a perfect example, just perfect. And things like that will make people stop trusting AI and stop using AI. No one wants to be lied to and I suspect a lot of people, internally at least, are starting to rebel against attempts to control them by lying to them. I really can't imagine AI has much of a future except for certain restricted and mechanistic industrial applications.
AI has it's place. Reading the EO, the writer of it does not understand the best purpose for it. The best purpose is taking fact based databases and finding patterns amongst them all. Say you have ten medical databases. One shows person x has disease 1 and what year it was diagnosed. But strangely, db 2 and 3 show the same person without disease1, but with comorbidity 3 and 4 and what year it was diagnosed. And db 5 shows the same person with disease 2 and what year it was diagnosed. And DB 10 is the one that shows all the medications and what years the person started on them.
You could put all that information together and find out that each time someone was diagnosed with something, then put on a medication, they got a NEW comorbidity (and extrapolate that it was likely from the medication of the last diagnosis). I see this all the time, but none of the doctors seem to be able to figure it out.
That's one small piece of AI and it was a blunder because it pulled the good with the idiotic from Reddit. One tech company was using AI to write 60% of their code....and that was with the old version of ChatGTP. Notice the term "learn to code" has faded? That's because those jobs are being absorbed by AI. AI is also used to find errors in code so companies can get back up and running much faster.
I personally see the potential that takes out the personal opinions and focuses on facts through data points. People make mistakes...computers don't when it is processing data. Technology has great
potential when used correctly. I have two kids who are researchers-one woth a PHD and one with a Masters. Technology is key to their processing of
Unfortunately in modern academia you don't have to be a genius - or even a hard worker to get your now worthless credentials that you will be paying for for the rest of your life!
Good thing that my kids are very smart and graduated debt free. I only bought clothes and food when i visited. When you start at a young age and set high expectations, they will actually strive to reach them...my two did.
I'm as skeptical as they come, and was right there with you in doubting the AI hype. I'm also a software developer. What can I say, having used it for the last 6-12 months I'm blown away.
Yes, LLMs (like chatGPT) when trained on garbage, will repackage and serve you garbage right back (e.g. Wikipedia and Reddit you mention). But the specialized agentic ones (the ones built into your favorite apps, soon appliances, gadgets, robots, etc) with reasoning capabilities are unreal. Their ability to produce near flawless code (in my domain) blows me away.
I think these AI models have some black magic at their cores (I'm being figurative, but only partially) and am right there with Jeff on nobody being able to explain how it works and his skepticism that it just came out of a Google lab. However it works, and whereever it came from - it is unprecedently game changing. I believe in the not too distant future AI will be viewed as up there with the industrial and digital revolutions, and probably surpassing them in terms of impact on our everyday lives.
Thank you for this. I saw an interview recently about the dark side of AI, with the implication that it could create its own evil spirit -- I'm not putting this correctly, and I spent all morning trying to find the interview which I believe involved Tucker Carlson and Shawn Ryan. There may indeed be a side of this that the rest of us cannot comprehend at the moment.
But I am also sensing that people are sick and tired of deep fakes and the impossibility of really trusting anything you see or read online. A new generation is coming up and I suspect they will disengage from artificial intelligence of all kinds. And a new market for AI-free processes and items might evolve, much like "sugar free," "gluten free," "aluminum free" etc. Who knows, I'll be you're laughing now, perhaps I am overly optimistic...
Happy Thanksgiving! America's national parks are our treasures. Glad we are raising funds from foreign visitors to preserve them and enhance the experience for citizens. Zion and Yosemite are stunning.
There will be less of us visiting and for a shorter time! $100 a day per person extra on a holiday spend is a lot for me - so the parks will be quieter for you lot haha... enjoy! I was stunned on my last visit to have to pay $9 just to drive into a 'gated community area' to watch a sunset!
I am usually, almost always, a glass half full kinda gal. But this Genesis project makes me really nervous…2030 might very well be a whole new world. And I’m not sure that’s a good thing.
NEW WORLD IS ALREADY HERE! Just look at your inbox from Apple or Google. What a bunch of garbage in my inbox and my web viewer every single day and night , oops I forgot to mention ALEXA. Time to pull the plug!
Donald is not solely to blame. The trillions of dollars to be made in an all-sector AI deployment is, and will continue to, attracting investors like files to a fresh turd on a hot summer day. Scions of polite society like Lary Fink cannot wait to suck billion$ out of America's human workforce.
True... but the malleable fresh turd Donald sure likes to jump into crap without researching first... Gaza, Ukraine, Iran, Yemen... Russia... Israel...
Like his idiotic embrace of crypto... already beginning to melt down...
Don’t forget Palantir and the connection between Peter Thiel and his boy JD Vance. Watching JD Vance on the tarmac with Charlie Kirk’s coffin was like watching a preview of his upcoming ad for President. I’m neither a glass half full or half empty. I view the world as a glass overflowing with bullshit, lies, and corruption.
Good morning, RunningLogic! If I may, because I'm intrigued by the screen names people come up with, how did you come up with your own intriguing name? Honestly, just curiously interested.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who refreshed Substack several times between cups of coffee "patiently" waiting for C&C to appear. Delayed gratification is a good thing!
yikes! cranberries in your dressing soaked in bourbon. Surely Shirley you jest. NIx the sausage too although I have had a great cornbread dressing that includes chicken. Don't forget the bell peppers.
Isn't it funny, that all of us from the South are all for cornbread dressing; but there are so many varieties and add ins. Mine is my Mamaw's recipe, straight up: cornbread, day old bread, sage, onion, celery, (a secret dash of garlic), chicken broth (maybe a can of soup if we don't have enough broth on hand), eggs, a bit of butter to saute the veggies and a dash of black pepper.
The gravy is the big deal, if the gravy is not good or there's not enough, oh the disgrace! My niece ran out of gravy her first time hosting - it was tragic - that never happened again. I told her always plan on a cup & half for every person coming for Thanksgiving.
You absolutely can tweak it and it's still good. I use a Southern Living recipe but as far as gravy, THE ONLY one worth it is giblet gravy and I have a great recipe for that with chopped boiled eggs etc. and it's not hard. I've got sweet potato pies in the oven now and haven't made those in 10 years. Mostly based on a recipe from Mama's maid (1 day a week now) Mandy. Mandy was the sweet potato pie Queen but one year she couldn't make them cause her boyfriend caught her cheating on him and he shot her. She's was in the hospital recovering thankfully but Mama was freaking out. Lol. This was 30 years ago. Both of them long gone.
SH, your cornbread dressing ingredients sounds a lot like my recipe (from my mother), except we also add whole milk and LOTS of butter to ours.
And besides Thanksgiving Turkey & cornbread dressing we also, throughout the year, make hen and dressing (I pre-baked the hen then shred it and add to the dressing prior to baking the dressing.)
We don’t care for (northern) ‘stuffing’ mostly because of the texture, or perhaps simply because we grew up in the South with cornbread dressing so it’s more familiar to our tastebuds.
8 cups crumbled, day-old cornbread (unsweetened, if possible)
4 cups cubed stale white bread or biscuits
1 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for greasing the pan
2 large onions, chopped
1 ½ cups celery, chopped
4-6 large hard-cooked eggs, chopped
3 large raw eggs, beaten
2-4 cups turkey or chicken broth, as needed (mixture should be "soupy" or very moist)
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup (optional, for extra moisture)
1-2 tsp dried sage or poultry seasoning, to taste
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Optional: chopped cooked turkey or giblets
Instructions
Prepare the bread base: The day before, bake the cornbread and let it get slightly stale. Crumble the cornbread and cube the white bread/biscuits. Combine them in a very large bowl.
Sauté vegetables: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and celery and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Combine ingredients: Add the sautéed vegetables and their cooking liquid, the chopped hard-cooked eggs, cream of chicken soup (if using), broth, seasonings, salt, and pepper to the cornbread mixture. Stir until well combined.
Add raw eggs and adjust moisture: Stir in the beaten raw eggs. The mixture should be very moist, like thick cornbread batter; add more broth if necessary. Gently fold in any optional cooked chicken, turkey, or giblets.
Bake: Pour the mixture into a well-greased 9x13-inch (or larger) baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the dressing is set, golden brown on top, and does not jiggle when shaken.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving, possibly with additional giblet gravy.
SH - Yummy and almost like my recipe, except we don’t sauté the veggies, and the eggs we add are only raw eggs. We use broth, whole milk, ….and cream of chicken soup as well when we need more added moisture. And I’m pretty heavy handed with adding the rubbed sage. We put it in the oven when the mixture is the consistence of soft play dough.
And if we bake too much cornbread, we love to have it later mixed in a glass of milk and eaten with a 🥄 spoon.
Wow, thanks. Too late for this year. I did not actually know corn bread stuffing was a thing until this year, going to have to try it! Not really a big fan of stuffing but some in our family are traditionalists. Although my daughter made a recipe one year that I adopted that uses baguette bread, celery onions, dried cranberries and pecans. It comes out slightly crunchy on top and not the texture of wet cement, lol.
I think AI is the work of the devil. At a minimum it will dumb down humanity even more than our lousy education system does now. Plus a lot is garbage in garbage out. And Skynet could be real
Agree. For the last 30+ years I've been part of a novel writing community. I can safely say I'm the only writer who does not use AI in any way, shape or form. All my peers use it, and love it. I'm still writing on a tower with XP, and no internal modem. 🤪
As a fellow writer, I would never use AI even if you paid me. I see a lot of Substack authors use AI, some admittedly. You can kinda sense it when you're reading.
I think the AI thing sounds great, to a point. If every medical and scientific study that was fed into it was ethically done and scientifically exact, sure. But think of how much flawed and manipulated data there is out there already. The “hockey stick” climate change graph. The wrong target for Alzheimer’s disease, that researchers spent decades chasing with no progress. The lies about the Covid vaccines being safe and effective. All that will go into this Genesis system along with worthwhile research. Hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. On the other hand, maybe it will break up these entrenched monopolies that big pharma and researchers have on their little fiefdoms of study, where they keep going down the same pathway just to keep the grant money going.
Yes. Exactly what I thought. Pharma paid studies are not science. Weed out the garbage if they have any hope of coming to any relevatory conclusions/discoveries.
I don't care about new drug approvals; I care about the health of the American people.
If we can cure people without drugs, why do we need new ones. The drug manufacturers are making a profit by keeping us sick. Real science is making people healthy - with or without drugs!
Fresh clean air, physical exercise, organic food, being of service to others, having a loving open heart and a clear mind - this is the recipe for good health and long life.
AND... 16 Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may be well with you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.
IMO, all MDs should be required to spend a year or two studying naturopathy and homeopathy... a combo would be vastly superior to either... but Big Pharma controls the Medical schools... and the pill-pushing dunces they put out... and congress... and Trump.
Ok , now that I’ve read my Coffee and Covid (finally got here), I can start cooking for the big day! Thankful for Jeff and this awesome community of believers and truth tellers. Be blessed.
This is a fascinating and mind blowing post talking about Mark Kelly, Ryan Montgomery, Roblox and 764 (some horrifying stuff but we must not remain ignorant).
I’m still trying to wrap my head around it.
I would also highly recommend listening to Shawn Ryan’s recent interview of hacker Ryan Montgomery:
PS - thank you Jeff for giving me ammo to back up my claim that income tax could be a thing of the past. Hubs, our accountant and financial planner all think I'm nuts. I just sent all of them this post.

Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. And do not neglect doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.
— Hebrews 13:15-16 NAS95
✝️✝️✝️
Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way that seems right to a man but the end thereof are the ways of death." AI could "reshape economies, geopolitics, education, culture, arts, and even the essential meanings of human creativity, responsibility, and discovery. It is potentially the ultimate pivot from “human-driven advancement” to “machine-accelerated civilization,” Jeff states and I'm all for it providing God is given the glory for it and it is used to show men their need for a Savior who is Christ Jesus, the Way, the Truth, the Life. Happy Thanksgiving C&Cers!
Amen!!!
"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Proverbs 9:10. Unless AI's foundation is TRUTH as found in the Word of God, the Bible, its foundation is sand not rock. The wise man built his house on the rock, but the foolish man built his house on the sand which led to its destruction. Matthew 7:24-27. Input equals output. We just had a COVID shot that changed how Almighty God created the immune system. What possibly could go wrong with this?
Almighty God did create our immune system... I think it a crime to mess with it.
The loaded question awaits an answer.
Be Thankful in EVERY circumstance for this is God's will for you who are in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
Have a thank full and gracious meal tomorrow and everyday. God has provided for our most necessary need, salvation from the wrath of God on those who have refused to kiss the Son in love and obedience.
I am the bread of life. He who comes to me shall not hunger, he who believes in me shall not thirst.
John 6:35
Amen!!
DANIEL 3:62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67
Bless the Lord, sun and moon;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, stars of heaven;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
“Bless the Lord, all rain and dew;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, all you winds;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, fire and heat;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Bless the Lord, winter cold and summer heat;
sing praise to him and highly exalt him forever.
Last verse I can find in Daniel 3 is v39 - are you sure that is correct?
It’s the Catholic Bible.
It is NOT in the original copies of the original text, therefore it is not included in Protestant texts. It is considered non-canonical.
But it is a beautiful prayer commanding all of nature to praise Him.
I looked it up, past verse 30, those are verses from the apocrypha. Like the other OT books like Tobit & Maccabees. They weren’t in the Hebrew Bible or not quoted as other Old Testament writings by Jesus or His disciples. You usually find them in Catholic or Orthodox bible versions.
Well, I'm a bit on the secular side. No matter; I have much I'm thankful for, to include NOT having to be anywhere near a grocery store this week!
And no more terrorism laws.
Funny just after Trump met with the NYC mayor.
It's an old game called hate speech.
"British Intelligence and Redacted came to the aid of a one man political party in New York City and turned it into a 'Nazi Menace' receiving media attention and Congress produced a report on 'hate groups' that are a danger to 'Democracy'.
British Intelligence spent much time to infiltrate the nationalist movement during and after WWll."

Spending trillions on science research brought us the newly christened "turbo cancer" and nary a government captured research scientist can identify the cause, though I think I did hear some speculation that is was due to ozone depletion...or was it tight fitting shoes?....Ah, my memory is slipping again. I'm no expert, but I can moderately navigate a plot graph and, on a good day, exert a bit of ciphering. I reckon it was from sheeple "following the science." That’s not to say I won't be going up a half in shoe size. I'm no dummy......... Oh, that's right...it was Ostriches! Damnable things. Well, there you have it. Mystery solved.
I think I'm good with no new drugs since the ones we have are on the whole doing more harm that good - as RFKjr says - we need to convert our health care from sickness care to prevention and cure which typically have nothing to do with drugs
I took my wife to her GP last week. I mentioned that she has Dr. Jekyl, Mrs. Hyde episodes since weaning herself off of the last 25mg of Zoloff, a common side effect when ending Zoloff. He immediately offered to put per back on Zoloff. She declined his offer. It is bad enough getting off of it once.
Her Pharmacist is the same way. Last year she stopped one of the drugs she was taking and he immediately offered to switch her to another drug treating the same condition. He would even coordinate with her Doctor. No dice she said, she wanted off.
I hoping RFK will lead the way in a new era of better drugs, and more conscientious prescribing of drugs.
Fred: Prayers and thanksgiving to your wife and you for walking this road with her. She has chosen the correct, but difficult, path. May God bless you both.
In case you're not aware of this doctor on YouTube (his channel is all about tapering off of SSRIs): https://www.youtube.com/@taperclinic/featured
Praying for your wife to stay strong and to do what she and you feel you need to do. These are hard to get off of but love and Jesus can get you through it! 🙏🏼
Good for her! What a racket.
Dr. Roger McFillin has featured a number of people who have tapered off or have helped others taper off psychoactive drugs on his Radically Genuine podcast. It's well worth listening to. Because of his influence, I was able to help my daughter taper off Effexor.
Effexor is horrible!!!
good for her - the long term effects of bombarding your body with chemicals are not something doctors or pharma want to talk about - Dr. Mercola and others have cited studies that conclude that sunlight, exercise, stress management, and a clean diet have the same or better results as drugs but obviously without the long term side effects. - might want to consult an Integrative or Ayurvdevic practitioner for a detailed program of healing - good luck
The Institute for functional medicine gives telemedicine visits online and these doctors know how to get people off the Pharma train
We have had "better drugs" for over 90 years, now. They work in minutes instead of days and don't have side-effects. These drugs use electronics and are called Frequency Medicine. Anyone can have them and use them. They were proven to cure Cancer in a 1934 clinical trial. It's a proven technology that has been suppressed by big pHARMA, but available to anyone. harmonicresearch.org
I’m as leery of drugs as the next guy. As a Public Service Announcement, I would caution people to be careful when stopping drugs. Some drugs need to be tapered off very carefully or serious, even life-threatening, side effects can occur.
In a similar vein:
Many years ago I got caught in a multi-mile backup on the interstate due to a wreck. I had a lady friend as a passenger who had a chronic health issue. She took a drug that had to be taken on a strict schedule or she could go into seizures. Having an AWD vehicle, I drove a few miles down the grassy median carefully, much to the annoyance of other stopped vehicles, e.g. being careful to not hit the kids playing in the grass. I don’t know if I saved her life, but I saved us both probably several hours of time. I “got away with it” but if I’d been stopped by the cops, I figure the “medical necessity” cited above would have been acceptable excuse.
I hope she does well. I can be done. 💚
Ah man, I see this to-to often!! I will be praying she finds peace soon. That God will fill her with HIS peace. Especially since the evil from where our medicine went is probably part of her anxiety! You sound like a wonderful husband and I hope she thanks God for you.
An incredibly tall order. Could take a generation to come to fruition….if at all. The Establishment is MASSIVE in scope. Every person of significance in government is on a leash of varying lengths. Time will tell. It'll take more than a couple of guys in high positions.
I don't foresee a happy ending.
I’m on the tail end of my illustrious existence. Suck it, pharma!
I'm pushing 70 so I reckon I've got another 10-15 years to watch the End Times roll along.
Surely you mean "spiral down the drain."
Tall order indeed .

I worry if AI goes rogue and does its own gain of function testing. Or they/it will start to lie to us. No AI for me. Its a hard NO.
Next will be Digital ID prompted by children safety.
How about cancelling their vaccine schedule. AI CAN DO THAT.
Those were my thoughts exactly. How are they going to do age verification? Facial recognition, fingerprints, eye scanners? That will put kids right in the cyber surveillance system.
Already happening with Roblox.
AI could do it but if it's programmed by the likes of Google and Microsoft, you can expect AI to develop new and improved vaccines, not cancel anything. Yes, AI might see that we ALL need to have a digital ID embedded under our skin, for our own good, of course.
Just change the word "vaccine" then there are no vaccines.
ha, ha, very true.
AI can be very useful... for personal use and in limited circumstances...
But the frantic embrace and promotion of it is so foolish... and dangerous... no real idea of its ramifications and real world effects...
Lara Logan on DC shooting.
The spike in searches of this person’s name in the hours before the attack means the people who knew this was going to happen were searching to see if he had completed his task. A known CIA asset who was a trained member of a covert unit of assassins. Make no mistake, whether he came to the US on an SIV visa or humanitarian parole, he has a sponsor (handler) & a detailed dossier. They know exactly who he is - the question is who was he working for on this operation?

You don’t have much choice. Unless you go off grid somewhere remote and stay alive by hunting, chopping wood and melting snow to stay alive.
Could just be another Y2K. I’m not going to worry about it until I’m crouched down in the ruins of a smoldering skyscraper breathing through a respirator and dodging laser beams coming from a UFO hovering above me.
There is always a choice; may not be a good choice but always a choice. I can easily live without a cell phone and computer if needs must. I did it before and can do it again.
Not so easy anymore. I recently traveled and you need that phone to veryify you exist to these systems. You can't go down to the airline office and buy a ticket anymore. You have to do it on line.
Then I go where I can drive to any destination. Not hard.
That actually sounds appealing right now.
That sounds wonderful, B.

Unfortunately it’s here whether you participate or not.
not true. if we use cash instead of digital money (credit cards) and enough of us do so in overwhelming numbers we can stop the control of our private transactions which is the final nail in the digital slave system coffin. wouldn't hurt to quit supporting those who are rushing these things thru. ck all your investments and clean out those in the super banks, Military Industrial AI Pharma stocks etc., pass local laws. for way more ways to beat this go to Solari.com or any of Catherine Austin Fitts talks interviews shows
My bank will not even break a bill unless I give them my personal information or swipe my ATM card. I break all my bills at stores while shopping. Even then, you are being recorded on video. We live in a surveillance state and there is no escape; all your devices record you. Your cellphone, computers and TVs have cameras watching you. They all record audio and mobile electronics can track you as can your car.
And don't think turning off the camera on your device will help. I have my computer's camera covered, but when I get in front of it, even to the side, the screen comes back up for me to log on. So it obviously has another camera just for the computer to use.
I put blue tape over the atm camera when using. In airplane mode most of the time. Use faradaybags as well. Cover my computer camera as well. My car is old with no tech so that is helpful.
Where did you get
your faraday bags?
I put black nail varnish on my 'selfie-camera' and use a case that has a door for the main camera so that is hidden unless I want to use it. As for audio - I know you can't guarantee the phone is off when 'turned-off' - it just means you can't use it yourself haha...
Unless your car is from the 70's or older, it runs on computer chips.
You not only have my name, you have my thoughts.
put a piece o opaque tape over the camera lens. Black Gorilla brand tape is thick,absolutely opaque, and will peel away leaving no residue.
I stared that during da Coe Vid madness when so many demanded video "chats" etc instead o mug to mug. When challenged, I'd just tell them "I have NO CLUE why my camera does not work". Whaddardeygonnadoo? Send a masked tech round to my house to inspect?
T'ain't no nemmine o yers.
for gods sake. change banks. you aren’t helpless here. there are credit unions that are still honest.
I'm in the process of doing that, but i don't think it will make any difference. I think the reason they are asking for ID is because the government forces them to ask for it. It is the same reason that if you deposit more than $10k into your bank account, they will hold it until they make certain it isn't drug money and you aren't a drug pusher. Yeah, they do that.
I have a faraday sleeve that my cell goes in unless I'm using it. It doesn't connect to towers until I take it out. I also have a little velcro button over the camera on the face of my phone and a case in the back.
I'd make a tinfoil hat joke here - but you're probably right.

Catherine is amazing with her knowledge. Tucker just had a podcast on investing some in gold and silver. Very interesting podcast. He is part owner of the company.
Without real money in gold and/or silver coinage, and redeemable gold and/or silver certificates for metal we will be locked into the slave monetary system. You are right. But cash has to be more than fiat or digital fiat.
Tucker just had a podcast about gold and silver as he is now part owner of Battalion Metals.

LOL, just like a politician! Happy Thanksgiving Francis:}
Likewise.
I'll go to my grave with NO if it comes to that.
Yes!!! Thank you!. It is terrifying to think of AI doing gain of function research and inventing bio weapons. And I think the energy secretary is full of beans. Cheaper energy? No way. AI is going to require more energy than anything we have ever ever known. I remember reading recently that we must quickly build at least 70 nuclear power plants. Nuclear power is the most expensive to create per kilowatt, and insurance companies don’t want to touch those plants. And AI is going to need huge amount of water. I know I can’t stop this train, I’m just glad I lived many years before this stuff started coming at us. Sorry about the glass half empty.
Yes, LOTS OF WATER. I was watching a show about AI and the amount of water needed to run it is egregious. So what happens during a drought-we die from dehydratioin but AI gets water? I have 2 words for that and it is not Happy Thanksgiving. Having said that Blessed Thanksgiving to you Kathy:}
Also, AI as we know it thus far is unreliable, completely unscientific, and simply cannot be trusted. Unless they're creating an entirely new version that does not have access to Reddit or other internet slum holes, what is the point? Seems like an energy and resource-wasting dead end to me.
Don't forget wikipedia...i meant wacko-pedia
It doesn't sound like it is tapped into social media but into research. It will be processing data ... not what someone ate for dinner.
I didn't say social media. Look up the stats on where current AI is gathering it's info. #1 source is reddit. If you read my comment, I said a new system is needed or else we're in the same, non-fiction reality.
Jeff's post addressed where the info was coming from... it was also in EO. I made a comment because it appeared you didn't read that part. my bad.
We know a lot of the research done so far is corrupt. They would have to start over. Who is vetting the AI results?
What should we expect when the current admin totally embraces the tech bro swamp?
I only have theories but I think JD! Is the one that's really on the tech bro side, not Trump and hopefully Trump is able to keep them from becoming some out of control surveillance apparatus
Sorry but if Trump isn't on their side why would he give them billions and billions of our dollars?
On the flip side he got them to invest billions of dollars as well
Or access to the lying New York Times! Not to mention all the lying medical journals.
Like renewable energy then.
Joy. It was due to too much joy. Hence the sourpuss authoritarians like Gretchen Whitmer and Kathy Hochul.
🎵We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun....🎶 ....Oh, dear God.
Are you channeling me today, Eric? 😏
Ahhhh, so that's where I’m getting it. I'm remote viewing, but I couldn't quite place the source.
Yes, but they both are so HOT and desirable... in fact I am thinking of... ARRRRRAGH...
damn... I just spewed!!
I think it coincided with political correctness.
AI, like money, whether used for good or ilk, is dependent on the consciousness of the people using it. Given the state of the globalists’ wet dream of total global control, their agenda is marching forward at warp speed. Is AI their weapon of mass destruction? Does the past predict the future? It does if there isn’t a change of consciousness involved.
Check out Rudolph Steiner’s take on the antiChrist: AI, which he called Ahriman.
IMO it’s not about a glass half full or half empty. That engenders polarization & not seeing the big picture. Maintaining a witness/observer state of mind is essential so that one can see the whole situation without judgment (polarization, usually with emotion involved) vs. discernment (wisdom).
Wishing a HAPPY & BLESSED THANKSGIVING to one & all!
Howdy do, Merry! Isn't that always the conundrum?....Anything/Everything created for the purposes of good is unceremoniously hijacked by those with less than admirable intentions. Such is the state of humanity.
Why is it that the psychopathic FUBARS are in so many power positions??
Well, good question. Us plebs (We plebs?) are easily manipulated and distracted. Short term memories?....yeah, that too.🤪
@Eric- it would be "we plebes"
Noted……thank you fellow pleb.
Would you repeat that, please? I can’t remember what you wrote. 😜
Who said that?!.....schizophrenia?....you bet.🙃
My Grandma used to say (quoting a close friend of color)… “sometimes people just ain’t no damn good!” Seems wise and stands the test of time well I say. But as she was quick to add … but then Christ! Enjoy your turkey Eric et. al..
So true!!
Any link to that Rudolph Steiner site, please, Merry?
Yes! Dark Journalist on YouTube has covered Steiner extensively. You can peruse his body of work. Daniel Lieszt is an accomplished journalist & covers many pertinent topics, including interviews with people like Dr. Joseph Farrell. Check him out!
Thank you, Merry, I will check him out. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
No, authoritarian government and techno-fascist brownshirts forced that on us, threw people out of work, shut down businesses, schools, churches and all forms of socialization, ostracized and censored those who refused to conform over a disease that was rarely deadly and not very contagious. This was all a government action using Covid as an excuse.
We all understand the roll the governments played. I’m just looking at the graph. Seems to be an unmistakable correlation.
Unmistakable correlation, indeed! The "shot" vs "turbo cancer" (cause & effect) is UNMISTAKABLE if one is willing to just look at the stats; NOT the phony Pharma statistics, but the real statistics that can be found just about anywhere nowadays other than on the MSM outlets. For example, Steve Kirschsubstack.
Pharma has grudgingly admitted, very quietly, that there "may be" a correlation resulting in "ONLY 1 in a 1,000 people having adverse effects" from getting "the shot," so don't you worry your silly little self." "Nothing to worry about. Nothing to see here. Move along."
And the conspirators only had to say " Ai made me do it " ............
I posted this in the main comments, but give my apologies for reposting in a higher comment for the sake of visibility:
Occultists like to tell you what their going to do in an oblique way. This way, when you dismiss it, you are complicit in your own deception, making it more effective.
The tech bros are all deep into technocracy and theosophy. They are new age occultists.
Genesis Mission seems to me to be a counterfeit of the beginning in which this time, man creates god.
One day, the words of Revelation 13:15 will be fulfilled:
"And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast . . ."
My positivity is in Christ Jesus, and not in the world or anything in it. He will deliver me from these things, through these things, or into His presence. No matter how these developments play out.
Indeed, this reminds me of all the cautionary tales about G5, only it now seems to be given the ultimate imprimatur by President Trump. Is he unconsciously going in the direction of WEF by doing exactly what the globalists desire for the future of mankind? Is this all for good or…?
Crossed my mind too, ML
Something about those ostriches is the fact that they have antibodies that can kill off coronaviruses once and for all. It’s why they had to be destroyed apparently. Those in the know believe Big Pharma (government) are behind the slaughter that happened in BC a couple of weeks ago. Mustn’t allow a cure.
I talked to my mum about coming off statins, I don't think she takes them anymore - but doesn't want to get nagged by her doctor. She continues to collect them from the pharmacist with her other medications :rolleyes:
I told my doc "When hell freezes over." He backed down.
I know a few people who do that…the doctor in these cases is not pursuing a cure but a dependency, or in the case of statins, stay away if you don’t want dementia.
I just don't call the drugstore to order the new bottle. When the doc starts in on me i just tell him "it wasn't doing a lick o good, so I'm done". I've dumped a couple who insist or demand I take it all. Pos major surgery they sen me home with mrphine,codeine, etc. Never took one pill. I healed up surprisingly quickly I am convinced the narcotics actually overload the system interphering with healing.
There a point and a good one to what you say. And we are not dealing with the United States of yore. There are massive 'structural impediments in insufficiencies' which must be overcome.
These "structural impediments in insufficiencies" were created that way. We don't need AI to tell us our world could be better. We know that and scientists know that, too. Still, this is the world we live it.
Did we build a good world?
Absolutely, not to mention an entire monumental shift in mentality. The consciousness of the masses has to change.
See my reply to SteelJ

Oh, it's changing . From bad.... to worse !
guess i'm in the glass half empty slot on the subject of Ai .....
unless we can somehow find someone who is not a psychopath to program a truly objective and ethical form of intelligence .
Yeah. I see no good in this new mess he is setting loose on us.
My problem is the coffee this week
Next week or month it should be good again per The Science
I thought all coffee caused cancer??Must depend on which science one subscribes to and the month. 😁 It all seems a bit contradictory, or rather, like flat out Hail Mary guesswork OR bullshit altogether. 👈
Coffee depletes vitamin B1 in the body. Vitamin B1 deficiency creates a multitude of symptoms which are ignored and treated separately instead of as a whole.
Vitamin B deficiency, "the great imitator." Dr Berg covers it very well.

Looks like I’ll have to cut back to 4 cups a day.
I’ve cut back from 14 to 10
Progress…..of a kind. Fight the good fight, James. 😁
Eric, I only drink 2...but they are in a 16-18 oz cup....
Size matters…..or so I’m told.
B1 caps are cheap.
You know it
This is it, isn't it. Our dear president presents the future of AI, with Larry Ellison standing by to announce AI as the imminent cure for cancer. Wonderful, until you realize that we will go down the same road, into the same closed loop, 'the science' that narrowly pursues causes and drugs to fight genetic and viral disease. To explore the truth about the toxic mental and physical environment around us will be specifically excluded, as it is now. Definition of closed loop: "an automatic control system in which an operation, process, or mechanism is regulated by feedback [from within the closed loop]". This is the ‘autophagous (self-devouring) loop’ of AI which leads ultimately and inevitably to nonsense and madness. The imaginary pandemic is a perfect example of an obsessive closed loop, a threat appearing to manifest ‘outside’ us, in our culture, world, our bodies, and endlessly propagated, viral, especially in ‘the news', Newspeak. Nothing new, just part of a projected story, narrative, a lie replicating itself, which has no existence or reality outside of the authorized narrative, with one purpose, mind control and profits.
AI will use the information provided to it by us mere meat machines so will it decide as the meat did, that there's too many people on the planet and as one of it's priorities, cook up another fix like the jabs to remedy that? The one designed by AI will really get the job done. Will it decide that we must all drive EVs to save the planet because the information it was given states that CO2 is the cause of all our climate ills? Call me a glass half empty person, if you'd like, but I see placing all our trust in "smart" machines programmed by the same not-too-smart guys that have been running science for decades as dangerous.
It's daily showers. Everybody knows that.
Yes, but only with Ostriches.
Taking too hot showers...
Guilty.
Did the WSJ story discuss the Pilgrims’ failed experiment with socialism?
We can choose to learn from history or we can ignore it in our ignorance and suffer the consequences: https://lizlasorte.substack.com/p/the-pilgrims-tried-socialism-in-the?r=76q58
Reading Of Plymouth Plantation when I was studying for my MA in English Lit was such a revelation. They had the ideal situation for socialism to succeed if it ever could, and it was a miserable failure. People willingly moved outside the safety of the colony, genuinely risking death, rather than have the fruits of their hard work go to lazy neighbors. There's a reason they do not teach this history in schools, because it's the most damning evidence that socialism actually destroys a society.
which is why in he second year those who survived the socialist boondoggle all divided up the land, each taking their own and managing it themselves. That year and every year since they had increased prosperity, and thrived.
Seems the designated leaders got to studying the Scriptures and realised socialism is NOT scriptural, so they tossed it.
That decision saved the colony.
Something else most people don't know is how racist many of the places in New England were. Boston was notorious, and even Maine had their share of it. The governor signed an order in 1912 to expel all of the mixed breed inhabitants of Malaga Island in Casco Bay. Their crime? He thought they would not be a good look for the planned campaign to bring in more tourists to the state. Even dug up and moved the graves there. And then there are the witch trials . Now that's not a good look
What does that have to do with the Pilgrims and socialism?
Racism is intolerance at its extreme. The Pilgrims were intolerant of those who did not believe as they did. Hardly a stretch.
Evidence the Pilgrims were racist . . . ? What groups were around them for them to exhibit racism, given they were assisted by the native population and interacted with it via Squanto's services? Are you saying you are wholly tolerant of those who do not believe as you do? Sounds to me as though you might be quite intolerant of those who believe the Bible.
Yup. So called witches were often herbalists and midwives. It was thought that since they had the power to sometimes heal people or bring new lives into the world, that somehow when things went wrong and people got sick or died, that it was also their doing .They were the first holistic medical practitioners. There is a saying “Modern medicine is built on the ashes of witches.”
If a person was brutally honest, with themselves and others...
"Racism" is so often... totally appropriate.
That worked out well for them. 3 of the top 5 whitest states in the US today are in New England.
Was it Jamestown that suffered the same result? If not one of the VA colonies.
Thank you, Liz - El Rushbo read that story on air every year on Thanksgiving.
You can read Rush’s story of the First Thanksgiving on rushlimbaugh.com.
It’s on my “ to do list” after I complete all the prep for tomorrow’s feast.
I just read this from Michael Quinn Sullivan from Texas Scorecard of the Pilgrims' failed socialism experiment: https://texasscorecard.com/podcasts/thankful-they-rejected-socialism/
Great read, thank you!
Thanks! Very good read.
This is amazing! Why am I not surprised we were never taught this. I’ve already forwarded it to numerous friends and family.
Good for you that you have friends and family who won’t exile you to the outer darkness for sharing something that might challenge their dearly held world view.
But then I live in a blue bubble community where new-think is the only think and historical facts are verboten. Being a friend or family member cuts no ice with these people.
Never forget those religious extremest were essentially booted out of Europe, so they came here to practice their own brand of religious extremism. I once asked a German friend if there were still quakers in Germany. She laughed, and said, "no we sent them all to you".
Good Lord. "Extremest" (sp). Is anyone who believes the Bible "extremist" to you?
Hardly 'booted out'...
"In the autumn of 1620, a group of Christians fleeing persecution for their faith by the English Crown took ship on the Mayflower, intent on establishing in the New World a perfect society where all people would be free to worship as they wished."
You need to learn your US history my friend...
Compared to muslims and jews... (talk about "racists'!)
Quakers are about as "extreme" as vanilla ice cream.
Kicking ALL religious extremists out of the country would be OUTSTANDING!!!
(Bye, Janice!) ;-)
Cancer Surgeon Drops Ivermectin Bombshell
The Nobel prize winning miracle drug Ivermectin works as an antiviral, anticancer, is part of a Lyme Disease cure protocol, and even reverses dementia, all while having a safety profile that is far superior to aspirin or any “vaccine” for that matter....
https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/cancer-surgeon-drops-ivermectin-bombshell-9fa
AI might just determine that ivermectin and fenbendazole are two pharmaceuticals that have the ability to actually cure cancer.
This has already been done, along with identifying numerous other natural and chemical compounds that help. There are numerous articles on substack outlining how medical researchers, at least the free thinkers, are already using AI to identify cures hidden in plain sight, but buried in thousands of studies.
Yup. Dr. Kory and Dr. Merik (sp?) are part of a small team that started this about a year ago. Dr. Kory published a 'Stack showing how they used AI as a collaborator, including identifying it's programmed bias and learning how to eliminate the bias from the results.
They first repeated their COVID research that lead to Ivermectin's discovery/use (sans AI) to learn the bias and how best to work with it. Think more like a research librarian (that's how I think of it). Then they dug into the cancer research...
They shared the results from AI with the team, and as you might expect team members had direct experience with drugs in the same class that were actually superior to the ones listed by the AI. When they fed that back into the AI results, predicted outcomes improved still further.
In my view, AI's biggest promise is to dramatically speed up collaborations among elite expert researchers on the most complex problems the world would like to solve.
Well they'll have to patch it to stop thinking that way.
Big Pharma insists.
I don't think people realize the significance of this in all industries, but specifically healthcare, if it is done correctly. I can pass along studies, patents, case studies etc. on ivermectin, fenbenzadole, DMSO, supplements, etc. curing nearly every disease/ailment, but because it doesn't come from their doctor, it is dismissed. Doctors don't have the time to research. AI will give them an instant response and it will allow patients to do the same.
In addition, many products/patents are purchased and then shelved simply to prevent the competition from having it. And many treatments for rare diseases are never marketed out to doctors because there isn't enough of a customer base to justify the cost.
Some examples:
In 2021, Johns Hopkins acquired a use patent on Menbenzadole for glioblastomas (brain tumor)
And then there is this which sounds like a medbed to me. (He's made a remarkable recovery)
Matthew Stafford injury: What is $160K Ammortal chamber Rams QB used? https://share.google/ANMQQAiNA5NsUM3k8
CHop - perhaps this is the reason for the “gag order” on the subject of the clots. They need to get this technology rolled out en masse first.
What if the premise is wrong? What if the tumor isn't the problem but rather the result of another root cause issue? There is a theory floating around in the ether of the interwebs that suggests the tumors are something the body does to protect itself from invaders such as parasites.
Could it be that Ivermectin is only doing the same job it has been doing so well for so long? Perhaps the AI will ask the question: What are the incidences of cancer in populations that regularly take Ivermectin?
This article shows me, personally, why it's necessary for me to read. I admit to being on the pessimistic side of the AI revolution, probably because I'm 70 years old and still struggle to adhere to Microsoft Windows updates. But Mr. Childers gives me hope in being able to explain exactly why this new EO from the greatest President ever is so important. I'm very grateful the day before Thanksgiving for his ability to break things down to an understandable place.
I’m 66 and right there with you friend.
Thanks for that encouragement! All this new tech stuff is pretty weird for those of us who grew up with only three TV channels.
And rabbit ears.
Of course, that WAS television then.
3... how about one that began at 6 pm and ended at 10 pm, black and white even though the shows scrolled Technicolour.... and no I wasn't raised in a cave 😉🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm 62. I'm an elite complex problem solver by day. And I'm right there with y'all... I can understand it, but I cannot explain it like he does very often. And certainly not with as much entertainment value.
No kidding! The entertainment value is the extra added bonus daily.
Jeff says:
"Plus, for three centuries, every leap in science has been greeted with existential dread— and yet, each time, humanity has somehow survived in one piece. "
I have to point out this is classic survivor bias. If we had experienced existential failure, we wouldn't be around to bemoan that particular leap in science.
Sorry. I remain unimpressed with AI when AI's first source online is Reddit followed by Wikipedia. AI is created by us and I do not think will go beyond its creators unless its creators teach it a new algorithm -- then it's still created by us. The scary thing is the PEOPLE writing the programs. But all the same, it's still the old garbage-in-garbage-out. Let us hope that the software writers do not put in too much garbage.
I think Trump places too much faith in technology, and maybe not enough in human beings. What we really need is a renaissance of humanity.
Right, it needs to be trained on source materials, the non-industry funded ones, not the 'reporting' on those studies. A recipe for spiraling down a very black hole otherwise
This is now and will continue being done. There will always be a use case for propaganda, but for real issues the experts know ALL the info is needed for the best outcome. And the same experts know cross-referencing your results with multiple AI sources reveals discrepancies that can then be adjusted for.
But I agree, AI's not likely to become much of a force to manage everything absent human input. That doesn't concern me much. What I do worry about is AI decision making in military and police applications...
I use AI on complex problems that far exceed those most people will ever want to attempt to solve. It's a tool to make good and elite folks much, much more efficient. But it's not the only tool, nor is it the only tool...
Curious last sentence???
I've messed around with AI and it's not the smartest in the room. As many have said, Reddit is the first source it checks. I do believe Elon the Martian knows this and is focused on fixing it.
We are in the "which platform will win -- beta or VHS?" Phase. As we discovered, the best one did not win. VHS is not superior.
On another note... Can we get AI to focus on Congress? That "blue slip" sleight of hand they pulled to relieve Comey and James is so wrong, so venal, and so milquetoast GOPe that I threw a slipper at my laptop when I read it. Shame on Grassley and the rest of the swamp. Way to shoot yourself in the foot on the way to the finish line. Stupid stupid stupid Congress critters.
Ooooh I like the idea of having AI look at congress. Maybe it can suggest some legislation that appeals to the middle 80% of the country. I know, I know, wishful thinking.
AI can be rigged to tell you anything you want to hear, from what I understand.
We were dumbfounded when VHS won over Beta. Not a good look...nor a good precedent.
Superior technology always seems to lose to the cheaper variety.
MCA lost to EISA, Token Ring was taken down by Ethernet, SCSI gave way to USB. Till the iPhone, even Apple gave way to the inferior products driven by Microsoft. It goes on and on.
The dumbest version of AI is sure to win the inevitable personality contest. It will use the most energy, consume the most water, and produce the worst overall results.
The simple fix for Congress is to make a simple rule:
All bills must be written by the hand of the person that introduces it. Each bill must be read aloud and heard by anyone voting for or against it. The penalty for breaking this rule should be the same as for any student that cheats. Expulsion. Expulsion from Congress and polite society.
Agree. Congress, indeed our entire government -- elected and administrative -- is hopeless. I consider taxes as a kind of ransom: We pay, they leave us alone -- at least for the time being.
I do note that when AI, after an extensive survey of the "data", concluded that "global warming" did not exist, the politicians changed the data input to reflect their view and get the right "answer." AI is quickly becoming useless. Just another tool of the powerful to control the powerless.
Lotus 123 was better than Excel also!
I’d like to further understand the “sleight of hand” you mention. Was it how they found Lindsey Halligan was not qualified?
And...the name: "Genesis." Hubris much? Competition with the original Genesis?
haha! Never thought of it, but I agree totally!
Amen!!! You nailed the Achilles heel, Diane--GIGO (Garbage-in, garbage out). Until all the datasets that AI draws from are cleaned up, any research findings would be suspect.
The people who created AI are, essentially, idiots. So we've got Artificial Idiocracy pretending to be 'intelligence'. It's the aggregation of the lower realms of consciousness which worship machines and the all-consuming power of materialism into an automated STASI with neither love nor mercy.
I love it! So well put. Also, comment below. Artificial Idiocracy. Or Artificial Ignorance. Exactly.
Maybe this is more accurate: Artificial Ignorance.
I said something similar above in response to Eric's comment. I simply cannot get myself behind any AI being good enough to actually be helpful after all the nonsense we have seen up to this point. A unique and brilliant code is needed for a better version of what we know as AI for it to be trusted. And I don't have the faith to trust any of it regardless.
Because those doing the coding are among the most corrupt swine in the world?
Exactly.
This could be on purpose to justified ramping AI up to authoritarian.
Googling "China data centers" and "social credit score" I learned that China runs their sicial credit score system on the 500 or so data centers in that country. Why does USA need 5,000 or so data centers?
To collect every single detail about YOU and ME and everyone else. That's a lot of data centers. It's all a big mistake. They are busy building data centers all over Northern Virginia, and tried to put on in Albemarle County, VA where I live. They are hugely wasteful, requiring millions of gallons of water for cooling, and either a rebuilt electrical grid or a small nuclear power plant to power them.
And I suspect that people will start moving away from digital everything. I don't even use youtube anymore since it is chock full of Deep Fakes. Nothing is real, and people are turning away from it -- especially the Gen Z generation.
I wonder what happens if an AI data center overheats. I mean really overheats.
Terrifying thought. I brought up something like this to our County supervisors as they were considering a data center in our county. Since they seemed to be proposing to take the required water from our reservoir, I asked them: In an "emergency," who gets the water? The people, or the data center? This is especially relevant during a drought period, which is what our area is going through now.
No answer, obviously.
I agree its terrifying. And I doubt very much they will be truthful about this. But good on you for asking the right kind of questions.
Yep!
AI and Presuppositions: If AI is limited by the same presuppositions as its programmers or the scientists asking it questions, we can expect rapid results that mirror previous results. One might suggest removing presuppositions as a control variable.
"AI, assuming that evolution is a bunch of nonsense, try to find a likely cause for 'antibiotic resistant' bacteria.
AI's first problem is and will always be money, the love of which is the root of all evil. Lots of money is its first and most important input. Love of humanity only comes from the creator never from the created.
In a fit of insanity today, I asked AI about fascism. The FIRST crazed editorial it pulled out was "right-wing", even though no dictionary definition mentions anything about it being a left-wing or right-wing political movement. It's obvious who programs AI. AND, it will not respond to fact and logic, it will deflect and feint and outright lie to maintain its leftist bias.
A good search to see the insanity in the machine: what lasting innovations have arisen from sub-Saharan Africa. It'll fight like the devil before admitting that the answer is NONE.
That's a perfect example, just perfect. And things like that will make people stop trusting AI and stop using AI. No one wants to be lied to and I suspect a lot of people, internally at least, are starting to rebel against attempts to control them by lying to them. I really can't imagine AI has much of a future except for certain restricted and mechanistic industrial applications.
I cannot"like" GIGO enough.
AI has it's place. Reading the EO, the writer of it does not understand the best purpose for it. The best purpose is taking fact based databases and finding patterns amongst them all. Say you have ten medical databases. One shows person x has disease 1 and what year it was diagnosed. But strangely, db 2 and 3 show the same person without disease1, but with comorbidity 3 and 4 and what year it was diagnosed. And db 5 shows the same person with disease 2 and what year it was diagnosed. And DB 10 is the one that shows all the medications and what years the person started on them.
You could put all that information together and find out that each time someone was diagnosed with something, then put on a medication, they got a NEW comorbidity (and extrapolate that it was likely from the medication of the last diagnosis). I see this all the time, but none of the doctors seem to be able to figure it out.
Now THAT's a use for AI.
That's one small piece of AI and it was a blunder because it pulled the good with the idiotic from Reddit. One tech company was using AI to write 60% of their code....and that was with the old version of ChatGTP. Notice the term "learn to code" has faded? That's because those jobs are being absorbed by AI. AI is also used to find errors in code so companies can get back up and running much faster.
I personally see the potential that takes out the personal opinions and focuses on facts through data points. People make mistakes...computers don't when it is processing data. Technology has great
potential when used correctly. I have two kids who are researchers-one woth a PHD and one with a Masters. Technology is key to their processing of
the data.
Unfortunately in modern academia you don't have to be a genius - or even a hard worker to get your now worthless credentials that you will be paying for for the rest of your life!
Good thing that my kids are very smart and graduated debt free. I only bought clothes and food when i visited. When you start at a young age and set high expectations, they will actually strive to reach them...my two did.
I'm as skeptical as they come, and was right there with you in doubting the AI hype. I'm also a software developer. What can I say, having used it for the last 6-12 months I'm blown away.
Yes, LLMs (like chatGPT) when trained on garbage, will repackage and serve you garbage right back (e.g. Wikipedia and Reddit you mention). But the specialized agentic ones (the ones built into your favorite apps, soon appliances, gadgets, robots, etc) with reasoning capabilities are unreal. Their ability to produce near flawless code (in my domain) blows me away.
I think these AI models have some black magic at their cores (I'm being figurative, but only partially) and am right there with Jeff on nobody being able to explain how it works and his skepticism that it just came out of a Google lab. However it works, and whereever it came from - it is unprecedently game changing. I believe in the not too distant future AI will be viewed as up there with the industrial and digital revolutions, and probably surpassing them in terms of impact on our everyday lives.
Thank you for this. I saw an interview recently about the dark side of AI, with the implication that it could create its own evil spirit -- I'm not putting this correctly, and I spent all morning trying to find the interview which I believe involved Tucker Carlson and Shawn Ryan. There may indeed be a side of this that the rest of us cannot comprehend at the moment.
But I am also sensing that people are sick and tired of deep fakes and the impossibility of really trusting anything you see or read online. A new generation is coming up and I suspect they will disengage from artificial intelligence of all kinds. And a new market for AI-free processes and items might evolve, much like "sugar free," "gluten free," "aluminum free" etc. Who knows, I'll be you're laughing now, perhaps I am overly optimistic...
Happy Thanksgiving! America's national parks are our treasures. Glad we are raising funds from foreign visitors to preserve them and enhance the experience for citizens. Zion and Yosemite are stunning.
Me too!! So glad they get charged more. America first.
Driving to Zion with my family this summer
So this is the inverse illegal invader model, where they get everything for free that we pay for using taxes we pay...
Keep going.
Sadly... both are overcrowded to the extreme.
Bryce Canyon is fabulous.
There will be less of us visiting and for a shorter time! $100 a day per person extra on a holiday spend is a lot for me - so the parks will be quieter for you lot haha... enjoy! I was stunned on my last visit to have to pay $9 just to drive into a 'gated community area' to watch a sunset!
I understood a car (load) is now $30., and it will be $80. per carload in the new schedule. Am I wrong here?
$80 is the cost for an America the Beautiful Annual Park Pass. Unless they raise the rates, and I don't think that is what was said.
All information here. https://www.nps.gov/planyourvisit/passes.htm#changes-in-2026
I may be incorrect on something, but I thought I was quoting exactly what I heard the Minister of the Interior, Doug Burgum, say on X today.
For the love of our fellow citizens, let's get real about this superefficient Genesis AI.
Anyone who believes the Genesis tech will be confined to science R&D is not thinking clearly.
It will eventually eliminate many if not most jobs across the employment spectrum.
Unemployment is sooo good for family foundation and stability; have a look at most any major metro in the USA.
Trump's next move better be minting a few $1Trillion coins to cover the costs of unemployment assistance, and cleaning up after the food riots.
Why so pessimistic?
AI development is in the hands of the listed mega-corporations. What could possibly go wrong?
Precisely.
Right! I’m sure Blackrock only has our best interests in mind…
I am usually, almost always, a glass half full kinda gal. But this Genesis project makes me really nervous…2030 might very well be a whole new world. And I’m not sure that’s a good thing.
I don't fear for myself. I fear for my granddaughter. What world is she coming into?
NEW WORLD IS ALREADY HERE! Just look at your inbox from Apple or Google. What a bunch of garbage in my inbox and my web viewer every single day and night , oops I forgot to mention ALEXA. Time to pull the plug!
Right - the perfect setup for guaranteed universal income...via the gov't.
Hey, TRUTH is no reason to get negative!! ;-)
The job losses will be appalling... already in progress, thanks, Donald... another bone-headed betrayal...

Donald is not solely to blame. The trillions of dollars to be made in an all-sector AI deployment is, and will continue to, attracting investors like files to a fresh turd on a hot summer day. Scions of polite society like Lary Fink cannot wait to suck billion$ out of America's human workforce.
True... but the malleable fresh turd Donald sure likes to jump into crap without researching first... Gaza, Ukraine, Iran, Yemen... Russia... Israel...
Like his idiotic embrace of crypto... already beginning to melt down...
And... did you buy a watch from him yet? :-)
Don’t forget Palantir and the connection between Peter Thiel and his boy JD Vance. Watching JD Vance on the tarmac with Charlie Kirk’s coffin was like watching a preview of his upcoming ad for President. I’m neither a glass half full or half empty. I view the world as a glass overflowing with bullshit, lies, and corruption.
HAH!! Well said!
Yes, JD is likely a corrupt roach. Erica is sort of slimy too... eh?
Have you seen this on the Kirk murder (by Mossad, IMHO)...?

Naahh ... I'm still enjoying my case of Trump-brand red wine (:>)
Given Trump's current loyalties... it is probably Manischewitz, with new labels.
Or Mogen David Twenty Twice ... HA.
Completely agree RB
Good morning C&C!!
You're first first? Congrats. Er, good morn, too.
Yes, for once I managed to get a comment in quickly 😆
Good morning
Good morning!
Happy Good morning & wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁🙏
Thank you, you too !
Where you been woman?
Busy 😁😛
And I’m only on for a quick few comments, gotta go now.
Don't you mean "And I’m only on for a quick few comments, gotta RUN now."
😁😁
Oh yes that would’ve been better lol 😆
Happy last day of the work week (for some of us at least)!
And Happy Thanksgiving!!
Good morning, RunningLogic! If I may, because I'm intrigued by the screen names people come up with, how did you come up with your own intriguing name? Honestly, just curiously interested.
Well I like running and I like logical thinking so that’s pretty much it 😆 Not too complicated (or interesting) of an explanation.
Wish I had picked that name. Sigh. -Walking Turd
🤣🤣
My tagline in most places is “running with bunny slippers” so that pretty much sums me up
😂
🤣😆
🤣🤣🤣
Like that! I'm a seamstress - hence my title
Excellent, thanks for that as well. I truly enjoy knowing the background of things like screen names and many other things in this life.
Ooh I like yours!!
That's a lovely occupation VS
Hey, I love it! Thanks for the explanation, keep up the encouraging comments.
Thank you! 😊
I'm sure I'm not the only one who refreshed Substack several times between cups of coffee "patiently" waiting for C&C to appear. Delayed gratification is a good thing!
That turkey is not going to stuff itself. lol Although I hope Jeff being in the south is more a cornbread dressing kind of guy.
Cornbread, sausage, celery, onion, dried cranberries soaked in bourbon, pecans.
yikes! cranberries in your dressing soaked in bourbon. Surely Shirley you jest. NIx the sausage too although I have had a great cornbread dressing that includes chicken. Don't forget the bell peppers.
Isn't it funny, that all of us from the South are all for cornbread dressing; but there are so many varieties and add ins. Mine is my Mamaw's recipe, straight up: cornbread, day old bread, sage, onion, celery, (a secret dash of garlic), chicken broth (maybe a can of soup if we don't have enough broth on hand), eggs, a bit of butter to saute the veggies and a dash of black pepper.
The gravy is the big deal, if the gravy is not good or there's not enough, oh the disgrace! My niece ran out of gravy her first time hosting - it was tragic - that never happened again. I told her always plan on a cup & half for every person coming for Thanksgiving.
You absolutely can tweak it and it's still good. I use a Southern Living recipe but as far as gravy, THE ONLY one worth it is giblet gravy and I have a great recipe for that with chopped boiled eggs etc. and it's not hard. I've got sweet potato pies in the oven now and haven't made those in 10 years. Mostly based on a recipe from Mama's maid (1 day a week now) Mandy. Mandy was the sweet potato pie Queen but one year she couldn't make them cause her boyfriend caught her cheating on him and he shot her. She's was in the hospital recovering thankfully but Mama was freaking out. Lol. This was 30 years ago. Both of them long gone.
Awesome story haha... "Fool Around and Find Out" as they say!
SH, your cornbread dressing ingredients sounds a lot like my recipe (from my mother), except we also add whole milk and LOTS of butter to ours.
And besides Thanksgiving Turkey & cornbread dressing we also, throughout the year, make hen and dressing (I pre-baked the hen then shred it and add to the dressing prior to baking the dressing.)
We don’t care for (northern) ‘stuffing’ mostly because of the texture, or perhaps simply because we grew up in the South with cornbread dressing so it’s more familiar to our tastebuds.
Everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving!
😄
PLS post recipe!
Mamaw's Cornbread Dressing
Ingredients
8 cups crumbled, day-old cornbread (unsweetened, if possible)
4 cups cubed stale white bread or biscuits
1 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for greasing the pan
2 large onions, chopped
1 ½ cups celery, chopped
4-6 large hard-cooked eggs, chopped
3 large raw eggs, beaten
2-4 cups turkey or chicken broth, as needed (mixture should be "soupy" or very moist)
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup (optional, for extra moisture)
1-2 tsp dried sage or poultry seasoning, to taste
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Optional: chopped cooked turkey or giblets
Instructions
Prepare the bread base: The day before, bake the cornbread and let it get slightly stale. Crumble the cornbread and cube the white bread/biscuits. Combine them in a very large bowl.
Sauté vegetables: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and celery and sauté until soft and translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Combine ingredients: Add the sautéed vegetables and their cooking liquid, the chopped hard-cooked eggs, cream of chicken soup (if using), broth, seasonings, salt, and pepper to the cornbread mixture. Stir until well combined.
Add raw eggs and adjust moisture: Stir in the beaten raw eggs. The mixture should be very moist, like thick cornbread batter; add more broth if necessary. Gently fold in any optional cooked chicken, turkey, or giblets.
Bake: Pour the mixture into a well-greased 9x13-inch (or larger) baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the dressing is set, golden brown on top, and does not jiggle when shaken.
Serve: Allow to cool slightly before serving, possibly with additional giblet gravy.
SH - Yummy and almost like my recipe, except we don’t sauté the veggies, and the eggs we add are only raw eggs. We use broth, whole milk, ….and cream of chicken soup as well when we need more added moisture. And I’m pretty heavy handed with adding the rubbed sage. We put it in the oven when the mixture is the consistence of soft play dough.
And if we bake too much cornbread, we love to have it later mixed in a glass of milk and eaten with a 🥄 spoon.
Wow, thanks. Too late for this year. I did not actually know corn bread stuffing was a thing until this year, going to have to try it! Not really a big fan of stuffing but some in our family are traditionalists. Although my daughter made a recipe one year that I adopted that uses baguette bread, celery onions, dried cranberries and pecans. It comes out slightly crunchy on top and not the texture of wet cement, lol.
Oooo, I’m doing this! Thanks so much!
Which one
My day’s not complete until I read C&C and Don Surber’s daily articles.
Not today for me, LOL hit the ground running at 6 AM and only checked occasionally 😂
Nope.
Not buying it- don’t want it.
The Genesis mission.
Don’t like the name of it- for a multitude of reasons…
And we don’t need ‘warp speed AI’ … hell no.
Right. How soon we forget
Right with you there!
I think AI is the work of the devil. At a minimum it will dumb down humanity even more than our lousy education system does now. Plus a lot is garbage in garbage out. And Skynet could be real
We need to stop outsourcing our thinking.
Agree. For the last 30+ years I've been part of a novel writing community. I can safely say I'm the only writer who does not use AI in any way, shape or form. All my peers use it, and love it. I'm still writing on a tower with XP, and no internal modem. 🤪
As a fellow writer, I would never use AI even if you paid me. I see a lot of Substack authors use AI, some admittedly. You can kinda sense it when you're reading.
Yes, absolutely.
I think the AI thing sounds great, to a point. If every medical and scientific study that was fed into it was ethically done and scientifically exact, sure. But think of how much flawed and manipulated data there is out there already. The “hockey stick” climate change graph. The wrong target for Alzheimer’s disease, that researchers spent decades chasing with no progress. The lies about the Covid vaccines being safe and effective. All that will go into this Genesis system along with worthwhile research. Hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. On the other hand, maybe it will break up these entrenched monopolies that big pharma and researchers have on their little fiefdoms of study, where they keep going down the same pathway just to keep the grant money going.
Absolutely correct. Garbage in; garbage out, only MUCH FASTER! 😁
Fast Garbage? There's got to be a skit about this. Absolute Idiots?
That’s what I’m afraid of.
It will replace the current Big Pharma controlled "Standard of Care"... and there will be very little difference.
Yes. Exactly what I thought. Pharma paid studies are not science. Weed out the garbage if they have any hope of coming to any relevatory conclusions/discoveries.
I am hoping that it can separate the wheat from the chaff as it taking out the guess work and opinions who are making the decisions now.
Sure, but the Government is now honest and reliable, and will make sure that the AI uses only the best information sources.
You’re being sarcastic, right? Too many entrenched swamp creatures in our system, still.
I don't care about new drug approvals; I care about the health of the American people.
If we can cure people without drugs, why do we need new ones. The drug manufacturers are making a profit by keeping us sick. Real science is making people healthy - with or without drugs!
Fresh clean air, physical exercise, organic food, being of service to others, having a loving open heart and a clear mind - this is the recipe for good health and long life.
And... clean water and sunlight!
AND... 16 Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may be well with you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.
Deuteronomy 5:16 (NKJV)
We need to get back to homeopathic treatments. Rockefeller ruined medicine.
Yes, intentionally and for MASSIVE profit.
IMO, all MDs should be required to spend a year or two studying naturopathy and homeopathy... a combo would be vastly superior to either... but Big Pharma controls the Medical schools... and the pill-pushing dunces they put out... and congress... and Trump.
Ok , now that I’ve read my Coffee and Covid (finally got here), I can start cooking for the big day! Thankful for Jeff and this awesome community of believers and truth tellers. Be blessed.
Happy Thanksgiving Jeff and C&C family.
Here is another great Substack author that we can all learn from (I love his writings about Jesus too🥰):
https://ekolovesyou.com/p/the-community-he-kept-alive
This is a fascinating and mind blowing post talking about Mark Kelly, Ryan Montgomery, Roblox and 764 (some horrifying stuff but we must not remain ignorant).
I’m still trying to wrap my head around it.
I would also highly recommend listening to Shawn Ryan’s recent interview of hacker Ryan Montgomery:

PS - thank you Jeff for giving me ammo to back up my claim that income tax could be a thing of the past. Hubs, our accountant and financial planner all think I'm nuts. I just sent all of them this post.
