Pentagon is already using Grok AI to launch missiles at girl's school in Minab that killed 120 school girls and 50 school staff https://thehill.com/newsletters/technology/5929290-pentagon-grok-iran-missiles/ https://thehill.com/newsletters/technology/5929290-pentagon-... it is as unconvential as it can be already

  The school wasn't Grok, as I understand it it was bad data in Maven.

    Yeah sure it was bad data, it’s great when you can blame a database or AI for crimes against humanity isn’t it? /s And in a couple of decades this stuff gets declassified and everyone will say „oh no how atrocious“, but those responsible will most likely be dead by then.

    It was the fact that Hegseth disbanded the team that used to ensure civilian targets are not hit. He was proud about it, see, ensuring civilians are not hit is woke waste of money. Literally. Then school gets hit and it is "bad data" as if there was no one responsible for checking the data.

    it wasn't just "bad data", it was data and somebody put that data in the targeting system these people have names and motivations to do what they did

If this is what a pro-life government looks like, Americans only care about “the sanctity of life” when it involves shaming women.

I've got an idea, very creative & unconventional: You know how we tried to defeat Vietnam militarily and it was a disaster with all sorts of US service members lives lost, their families destroyed and lots of civilians killed? And then we lost anyway? And then after we stopped and, after a while, we started trading peacefully with them? And then how now they are pretty neutral-to-friendly towards us? We could try that.

    Why do we continue to spread this as if it was objective fact.. Didn’t the US government intelligence agencies themselves find that Iran is not building nukes? Aren’t they submitting to inspections by the IAEA, whereas Israel is not?

    everything you said is complete lie

    > Iranian regime is on a path of creating nuclear weapons and they are going to do use it again Israel That's a really big claim. I don't think you can just assert that Iran is suicidal without having some sort of evidence to back it up.

      It's not an evidence but if they do believe the end times prophesy about Imam al-Mahdi they may want to speed-up his arrival by attacking Israel. IMHO people in the west often making a mistake trying to interpret actions of deeply religious people from a secular viewpoint and making an assumption that they must have only or mostly non-religions motives.

It smells desperation. Give up and accept your failure already.
