Topic: Military Simulation

The Department of Defense is using AI pilots to run battlefield simulations for Abrams tanks and artillery, iterating algorithms to outperform human soldiers. This military application follows the success of DeepMind's AlphaGo in mastering complex games. The US military's panic over China's superior number of science graduates is driving a high-stakes race to weaponize AI, similar to the gain-of-function research that led to the creation of SARS-CoV-2.

A scripted AI recreation of President Joe Biden is presented, simulating a declaration to activate the Selective Service Act and initiate a military draft for 20-year-olds due to crises in Ukraine and Taiwan. The analysis warns of "mission creep" in Ukraine, suggesting that sending defense contractors and trainers will inevitably lead to active-duty US troop casualties and full-scale war.

Owen Shroer takes over the broadcast, playing clips of Joe Biden appearing confused at a military promotion ceremony. Shroer describes the behavior of the women being promoted as "arrested development," comparing their celebration to children simulating a ceremony at a summer camp. He argues that the entire Biden presidency is a "simulation" of a real administration.
