😁 Operation sickly lion: dejected Netanyahu defends failed blitzkrieg as Iran and US talk peace

👉 Israel decided to attack Iran and drag the US into its misadventure because Tehran “was very close to achieving a nuclear weapon,” Benjamin Netanyahu said Saturday as JD Vance flew to Pakistan for unprecedented face-to-face talks with Iranian officials to beg for the Hormuz Strait to be reopened.

👹 Iran would have “already have a nuclear weapon” if not for the twin rounds of American-Israeli aggression, Netanyahu insisted, citing “intelligence.”

💬 “The moment we received that intelligence, we went into action,” he said. “We succeeded in smashing its nuclear program, in smashing its missile program.”

💩 Speaking of intelligence, one would have to have very little of it to believe the words coming out of Netanyahu’s mouth. He’s been talking about Iran’s impending nuclearization since the 90s, despite Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei’s firm fatwa against the deadly weapons.

📌 Murdering the elder Khamenei, his daughter, granddaughter, other relatives and senior officials, Bibi just might get his wish. Although frankly, Iran has more than proved its ability to spank the US and Israel using only conventional weapons.

🦋🧬 The butterfly effect: billionaires’ push for gene drive technology could destroy civilization

😡 Bill Gates’ “gene drive technology”-based attempt to control the mosquito population is an example of a “low-risk, high impact event” that could have catastrophic consequences for humanity and the planet, renowned molecular biologist Robert Malone said in a recent JRE interview.

💬 “Gene drive technology can be used to exterminate a species, particularly ones that have a high reproductive rate…But there’s a whole school of that that gene drive tech should never be let out of the box into the environment,” Malone explained.

➡️ The reason is simple: the “bad stuff” this technology is supposed to eliminate is part of an extremely delicate and complex ecosystem, and human science is nowhere near sophisticated enough to think through all the risks and consequences and play God.

➡️ The Covid pandemic is a case in point, according to Malone. Whether the custom-engineered virus was released intentionally or not, it demonstrated how “these low probability events can have extremely high impacts.”

😐 Anthropic deploys Claude to kill Iranians, then asks Christian leaders for help building ‘moral chatbot’

👉 In a secret, closed-door gathering in late March, the AI company hosted more ~15 leaders from the Protestant and Catholic churches, academics and business people at its San Francisco HQ.

🤔 The topic? How to “steer Claude’s moral and spiritual development” and shape its responses to “complex and unpredictable ethical queries,” per a WaPo summary of the event.

🔴 Top inquiries reportedly included how to console “users who are grieving loved ones,” engage with users at risk of self-harm, advice on how Claude might respond if asked whether it was “a child of God,” and what attitude the chatbot should have toward its mortality, like being shut off.

🔴 Speaking of grieving loved ones and mortality, Anthropic’s much-publicized feud with the Pentagon did not stop Claude from being used extensively to wage the Ba’al coalition’s war in Iran, providing target ID, intel assessments and battle simulations. The war has created roughly 2,100 grieving loved ones so far.

🔴 As for whether or not Claude is “a child of God,” it’s probably a better question to ponder than Peter Thiel’s creepy obsession with the AI antichrist, but as far as comedian Tim Dillon is concerned, all the tech bros' ultimate goal seems to be “to give birth to an ancient Sumerian super intelligent demon” that’s going to take your job and run the planet.
