‘What is the dispute between the Pentagon and Anthropic?

Anthropic wanted the military to promise that it would not use its AI model, Claude, in weapons that can identify and fire on targets without human input — commonly referred to as “fully autonomous weapons.” The company also sought to prohibit the use of Claude to spy on Americans, particularly by analyzing location records, financial information, and other large datasets that the military has purchased on the commercial market.’

Information Technology is always used as an argument for progress, but isn’t that just a cover for the fascists’ arm races? All we get are endless wars to protect the nonrenewable interests of its corporate sovereignty! #FascistTechnology #CorporateSovereignty #SustainableTechnology #DiverseInterestsDemocraticRights

The Military’s Use of AI, Explained

The risks to soldiers and civilians are mounting as the Pentagon races to adopt the latest commercial advances in artificial intelligence.

@ZackPolanski Reform gets all the 📺 and media coverage and the Green Party get none, because Evil Corps. favours Reform. Since they own and control most of the media and also have far more capital to finance Reform, they do that as Reform will give them the tax cuts and antitrust policies that protects their interests! Número uno being their programme of ecocide! #Democracy #UnethicalFinance #Reform #Corruption #ReformIsFascist #EvilCorps. #Tv #Media #UnethicalMediaCoverage #GreenParty #FakeDemocracy #CorporateSovereignty

@ChrisMayLA6 ‘Brecht on Fascism not being merely barbarism for its own sake:’ https://www.kmjn.org/snippets/brecht35_fascism.html

No Nation is free from becoming a fascist state. None should doubt, that fascism is the barbaric ideology of celebrity cults dependent on corporate sovereignty; the monopolies of industrial tech., so Trump is 100% fascist. Without the collaboration of the ultra rich investor financiers receiving the tax and policy benefits of deregulated capital markets, he would not have the power to circumvent The Constitution, stack the judiciary, the legislature and gain the bias favour of the media to secure the ascendancy to his dictatorship and become the Emperor he clearly desires to be. Corporate sovereignty and its totalitarian world order is a negative-sum game playing one party against another to get the finance and media attention one party needs to win elections, so antitrust corporate interests can protect their business with dictators to steal or destroy other Nations resources. How else could they preserve their Empire’s programme of ecocide? As such it is diametrically opposed to the democratic rights of diverse interests, so it is the antithesis of Republic Sovereignty. A Federation of Republics can defeat its cruel and diabolical reign of corruption and violence. #Fascism #Barbarism #DiabolicalViolence #CorporateSovereignty #Empire #Freedom #RepublicSovereignty #TheFederation

@therightarticle Perhaps the U.K. following the U.S. will go full authoritarian because too many are tired of being cogs in a warn out machine? The reason being, they would rather live through the collapse of Nations to know civil war, revolution, war and or terror then continue with their boring and meaningless lives. #ThePriceOfFascistCults #Reset #EndOfEmpires #EcocideEmpire #RepublicSovereignty #DRDI #DemocraticRightsDiverseInterests #CorporateSovereignty=FascistCults

@HarriettMB To any discerning citizens, Human rights versus non-renewable Corporate interests, just proves how bribed up and bought our politicians are. You give a finger to fascist narcissists and they’ll hang draw and quarter you. #EthicalRights #Democracy #CorporateSovereignty #MobsDeregulate #CultsAreOurBane !

@PeterRu Why not call it corporate sovereignty? It has gamed democracy by using capital to divide party interests and control elections. It is not only unethical but also anti-competitive, as it favours the control of capital by those who can profit most from diverse interests having no democratic rights. Within its deregulated markets you get oligarchs monopolies, bought politicians, censorship, propaganda, endless wars, ecocide, business with dictators, purges, from tax benefits to finance extreme inequality and injustice; land theft, genocide, scammers, grifters, drug dealers, sex traffickers, racists, chauvinists, ableism, child slaves, mercenaries, piracy, violence and censorship against LGBTQ+ and immigrants. Corporate sovereignty is the basis of fascist tyranny by celebrity cults! #AllEmpiresEnd #CorporateSovereignty #RepublicSovereigntyIsGreater #EvilCorp #CorporateSovereigntyIsWeak #RealDemocracy #RepublicSovereignty #NoCorporateSovereignty

End of the line for corporate sovereignty https://pluralistic.net/2024/03/27/korporate-kangaroo-kourts/#corporate-sovereignty

The modern ISDS was perfected in the 1990s with the Energy Charter Treaty. The ECT was meant to foam the runway for western corporations seeking to take over ex-Soviet energy facilities, by making those new post-Glasnost governments promise to never pass laws that would undermine foreign companies' profits.

Corporate Sovereignty On The Wane, As Governments Realize It's More Trouble Than It's Worth
