Pete Hegseth Says the Pentagon's New Chatbot Will Make America 'More Lethal' - Pawb.Social

> Secretary of War Pete Hegseth announced the rollout of GenAI.mil today in a video posted to X. To hear Hegseth tell it, the website is “the future of American warfare.” In practice, based on what we know so far from press releases and Hegseth’s posturing, GenAI.mil appears to be a custom chatbot interface for Google Gemini that can handle some forms of sensitive—but not classified—data. > > Hegseth’s announcement was full of bold pronouncements about the future of killing people. These kinds of pronouncements are typical of the second Trump administration which has said it believes the rush to “win” AI is an existential threat on par with the invention of nuclear weapons during World War II.

FFS why does the next generation Nazi’s have to be such losers? I’m not trying to say anything positive about WWII Nazis but at least…

I don’t know but these losers here have here now somehow make Nazi’s seem competent and semi respectful.

At least the Nazi’s exploded onto the world because they had something going for them? They had good generals and in the beginning made strategically good decisions?

How is the world losing to these worms?

No, they didn’t. The Nazis were every bit as much of an incompetent mess.

Their generals largely sucked; they did as well as they did because their main opponent - France - shit the bed unbelievably hard, having made all the wrong preparations to fight basically the wrong way. The Nazis made some smart choices here and there, such as going through the Ardennes, or the decision to put radios in all their tanks, but their strategic and tactical “brilliance” was entirely invented after the fact, mostly by the generals themselves in their autobiographies where they were given free reign to blame every bad decision on Hitler.

Economically, their success was entirely down to running a plunder economy. They basically wrote a whole lot of cheques they couldn’t cash, then looted Czechoslovakia and Poland’s treasuries to foot the bill.

They were every bit the gaggle of squabbling incompetents that this administration is. They just had really good propaganda. This is always what fascism looks like. It’s an ideology that uplifts the incompetent, by design.

They were largely incompetent but they were ideological.

None of these fascist-wannabes have a shred of conviction in them, they have no actual beliefs. When was the last time you heard any of them deliver an impassioned speech that wasn’t utterly awkward and stilted and oozing with corporate callouts and pandering nonsense.

Yes, it deliver the same rotten outcomes, people still eat it up, it just feels weird losing so much social ground to a group who managed to con a third of the country’s population with the same level of enthusiasm and fervor as AOL roleplay teens trying to be edgy.

This is actually it, the point I was trying to make. I couldn’t really put my finger on it yesterday, but yes, this is it.

At least they start of for something. It was a fucked up thing, it was wrong, it was horrible, but at least it was something. At least they made it look impressive and great. This group of fat losers don’t even have that going for them.
