Who has not heard of ChatGpt, Grok, etc? - Almost nobody.

Who understands how they work? - Almost nobody.

Who understands how good their results are? - Very few.

So of what use are they?

Well, as an improvement on a traditional search engine, they are indeed useful, especially if we are examining a reasonably cut-and-dried topic, say for instance, the Statute Book. It exists. It's not "fuzzy" except in so far as its provisions can be extremely complicated, even contradictory,  and thus not easily understandable by mere humans, which is one of the reasons we have hitherto had to have highly paid and experienced lawyers ... in an attempt to understand the output of our Parliamentarians ... ("but ignorance of the law is no excuse").

Now take a look at economics. Could an AI unravel the best economic policies for the country?

If you ask me, not a chance.

It's all far too uncertain and you'll probably never find a roomful of economists to agree on anything very much. When I was a student, the biggest most ponderous and least useful textbook was on Economics - it isn't a "science" because human beings and their predilections and choices are simply not overall capable of reliable prediction without taking into account all manner of extraneous factors. And economics is all about the choices of humans.

Are there areas in between that could benefit from a better type of AI?

Well, human-designed AI is still in its infancy, the "explosive growth" phase is almost certainly still current, and so the answer must be a resounding "yes!".

So, what form might an improved AI take?

"AlterAI is experimental software in active development. Responses may be inaccurate, incomplete, or occasionally unexpected. Always verify important information independently"

If you feel tempted, best do some rigorous testing ...

"Costs" may also be Punishment

Are legal "costs" now on occasion indistinguishable from fines?

Especially perhaps if the Justice system doesn't like you?

Martin Geddes, in his quest to establish the authenticity of the SJP (Single Justice Procedure) which is routinely used to try defendants all across the country, has been handed what he assesses as an exorbitant award of "legal costs" against himself, and suspects that he is in effect being punished for his temerity in challenging the system.

He is in effect being charged for a refusal to engage.

It's a bit like you call to see your doctor's receptionist to make an appointment, but he has no appointments available, and the receptionist charges you for giving you that information.

Do you agree?

 

The Rule of Law is Over - Long Live the Rule of the People!

It can now be seen to be true.

The law is for the containment/exploitation of the masses, not for their protection from their rulers.

Martin Geddes has lifted the lid on the situation in the UK. When push comes to shove and the UK Justice Department is asked politely to justify the authority of their courts, their only response is evasion. If they had an answer, they only had to produce it. They have not.

Follow our reporting on this long saga here.

Mark Sexton and Ian Clayton have lifted the lid on "Operation Talla", the illegal / unconstitutional suppression of all inconvenient complaints to the police about the handling of the "Covid" vaccine roll-outs in the UK, roll-outs which prima facie violate every one of the Nuremburg Codes which were adopted internationally after WW2, and where the principle that "the accused were simply obeying orders" was ruled an invalid defence.

See our own reporting on Operation Talla. 

When Operation Talla falls, the accounting for Covid crimes can commence.

Whatever you think of the law, it is the law. Justice must be seen to be done. Justice has not yet been seen to be done. 

And lest you believe that this is simply a UK problem ...

"More than four years ago a federal court ruled in our favor in Environmental HealthTrust, Children’s Health Defense et al v. FCC,  finding the FCC and FDA failed to consider evidence about wireless radiation impacts on children, adults, and the environment. The court mandated the FCC to consider the evidence, and the FCC has yet to comply."

"2026, marks the 30th anniversary of the FCC’s outmoded approach to cell phone regulation"

The FCC (the US Federal Communications Commission) chooses not to comply with the Court Order, but who cares?

Even the US government-appointed regulator is a lawless entity.

The "regulator of regulators" from which other national regulators take their lead ...
