Much has been written about AI and much no doubt still has to be written (possibly also by AI), so what is our future - will humanity slip the ring over AI's (virtual) digit and embark on a mutually supportive and happy life together, spawning Yuval Noah Harari's happy brood of Davos-style hybrid transhumans, or will it all end in tears and an acrimonious parting of the ways, with humanity desperately trying to pull the plug on the AI's power supplies before the latter's drone swarms can intercept us?

Well, as we have remarked in these (virtual) pages before, there's AI and then there's all the other varieties of AI.

Clearly Google knows a great deal about AI, its uses and misuses, and Google whistle-blower Zach Vorhies has been closer to the AI scene, for good or ill, than most of us.

Here he is interviewed by Andy Steele of Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth, and a wide-ranging interview it is (although 9/11 does get a mention in passing). As with all of humanity's creations, AIs can be designed and used for good as well as for ill - not merely for world domination.

So what are the paths that lie ahead; and if we choose wrong, will we get a second chance?

" ... we are going to see the destruction of the human-centred economy, and we're going to go toward the creation of an AI-centred economy ... hopefully they can make all of us so rich that we ... don't care, because right now ... the debt load's going up ... we have to  ... have a reset of this current system ... "

Let's work for a soft reset ... and yes - he does (finally!) end on an optimistic note.

Friday 13th may not be the most auspicious time to declare war on Russia, but NATO seems to think that war is what NATO is there for. What was once sold to the public as a purely defensive alliance will shortly likely morph into an offensive grouping, just as soon as Messrs Lammy and Blinken can put the appropriate words together into a formal statement.

" ... long-range arms for Kyiv would mean 'NATO countries at war with Russia'

Don't take my word for it, take Mr Putin's.

Of course, if the Russian president really is a demented madman bent on world domination (and it is true that he was once one of Klaus Schwab's "young global leaders") then assisting the Ukraine defend itself from an entirely unprovoked attack might make sense (although we've been "assisting" for so long now to apparently little effect that one must call into question whether our assistance has been of value).

Like the NHS however, the Ukraine conflict has become another quasi-religious dogma of the UK-US government-media machine, an unassailable dogma that must be prosecuted to the nth degree regardless of reality and cost no matter the consequences.

Nor does history show that Mr Putin's "special military operation" was unprovoked - it came after a US-inspired Maidan revolution of 2014 that displaced the properly elected President, and was followed by many years of Kiev shelling the ethic-Russian Donbass in Ukraine's east, causing indiscriminate casualties.

Shelling that was not brought to an end by the subsequent Minsk Agreements.

So if we do permit Zelenskyy to bombard Moscow with Storm Shadow or other ordnance provided by us, how long do we think the UK will retain its bucolic tranquillity, untroubled by the arrival of Russian retaliation?

The truth is that NATO has been comprehensively outclassed by Russian measures to ensure that they at least will be able to defend both themselves and their territory, including Kursk, the Crimea, and the Donbass - NATO would be wise to review its stance and refrain from acting impulsively.

That on current form seems unlikely.

ZeroHedge brings our attention to a news report on the situation of the Ukraine conflict, from the Ukrainian perspective.

Regular readers of this site will not be unduly surprised, except that the report comes courtesy of CNN - an unusual source for such reportage.

When even the most on-message sources start to prepare their public for the truth, the end cannot be far away.

No, surely not?

But read on, for this article should bring a smile to the face of every true Englishman!

Note that this site does not do Party Politics - for our purposes, the notion of reviving the Tory party is not the point - the point is to revive the English of all classes and Parties in the true spirit of the major English traditions of fair play, tolerance, independence of spirit, good sense, and zest for life.

Does it not cut to the quick of what is ailing our country today, after many years of the assiduous subliminal cultivation of the notion of our inherent inferiority and consequent lowly deference to the judgement of the expert and authoritarian classes?

Are we not rather called to live life to the full?

Yet whilst we scurry around in fear of climate change, monkeypox, or whatever other futile fabrication our would-be lords and masters would have us take fright to, we fail both ourselves and our young generations.

Arise, Freedom beckons, we have but to throw off our subordination and dare to do our own thinking!

The Good Creator gave us a most marvellous organ between our ears, and it is surely the height of ingratitude to neglect to use it to the fullest extent.
