Military Slopaganda and The Colonial Logics of AI Race  — HELIOTROPE
By Vincent E. In a 10-second video, a man in a military uniform hugs his friends, plays with a dog and then walks up a stairway, leading to a light in the sky, as his friends wave him goodbye.

@alixdunn.com sat down with @carissaveliz.bsky.social to talk about her new book, ‘Prophecy.’ She walks us down the well-worn path of prediction as a political tool: power brokers using forecasts to bend the future towards their will by convincing the rest of us that it’s destiny, not marketing.

Beware the AI Prophets: Hype, Doom, and Prediction as Tools of Control w/ Carissa Véliz
Carissa explains why a prediction is a command disguised as a description, and how powerful people use algorithms to fulfill their own forecasts.

발레리 비치(Valerie Veatch)가 제작한 이 영화는 컴퓨터 연산, 통계학, 인종주의, 그리고 우생학이 복잡하게 얽혀 있는 역사 속에 인공지능을 조명합니다. 또한 역사학자, 비판 이론가, 사회과학자와의 인터뷰를 통해 영화만의 다각적인 전문가 시선을 담아내며, 무엇보다 AI가 작동할 수 있도록 보이지 않는 곳에서 상당한 노동을 수행하는 데이터 노동자들의 목소리를 비중 있게 다루고 있습니다. 보이지 않는 설계자 @PBS @YouTube 9월 15일 오전 9시에 개봉합니다.

This is one of the most disturbing and important documentaries of our time. It's also a master lesson in why billionaires are bad for society. There shouldn't be 5-6 people who are so rich that there are no guardrails for their narcissistic whims.

Watched Ghost in the Machine this evening on PBS, and it's very much worth the time. The documentary gives a lot of useful historical context for the current moment and brings together a wide swath of trustworthy expert voices to weigh in. I recommend!

Elon Musk talked up AI safety, threats from "superintelligence" this week, all while fighting off regulation... It's a strategy he's used for more than a decade, as documented by @dairinstitute.bsky.social & others. My latest @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2026/09/18/a...

Elon Musk talks up AI safety while fighting regulation in wild week of strange alliances
In the past week, Musk has agreed with the CEOs of Anthropic and OpenAI, while getting contradicted by President Trump and Nvidia's Jensen Huang.

I was getting increasingly frustrated with the Discourse this week, and then Ed asked me to come on and vent about it. Felt good and hopefully did some good too. (The next day, Cal and I talked about it even more for @dreamingagainstthemachine.com. That episode will be up next week!)
