Giving ChatGPT access to the nuclear launch system might seem like a radical idea, but there are compelling arguments that could be made in its favor, particularly when considering the limitations and flaws of human decision-making in high-stakes situations.

One of the strongest arguments for entrusting an AI like ChatGPT with such a critical responsibility is its ability to process and analyze vast amounts of information at speeds far beyond human capability. In any nuclear crisis, decision-makers are bombarded with a flood of data: satellite imagery, radar signals, intelligence reports, and real-time communications. Humans, limited by cognitive constraints and the potential for overwhelming stress, cannot always assess this deluge of information effectively or efficiently. ChatGPT, however, could instantly synthesize data from multiple sources, identify patterns, and provide a reasoned, objective recommendation for action or restraint based on pre-programmed criteria, all without the clouding effects of fear, fatigue, or emotion.

Furthermore, human decision-making, especially under pressure, is notoriously prone to error. History is littered with incidents where a nuclear disaster was narrowly avoided by chance rather than by sound judgment; consider, for instance, the Cuban Missile Crisis or the 1983 Soviet nuclear false alarm incident, where a single human’s intuition or calm response saved the world from a potentially catastrophic mistake. ChatGPT, on the other hand, would be immune to such human vulnerabilities. It could operate without the emotional turmoil that might lead to a rash or irrational decision, strictly adhering to logical frameworks designed to minimize risks. In theory, this could reduce the chance of accidental nuclear conflict and ensure a more stable application of nuclear policies.

The AI’s speed in decision-making is another crucial advantage. In modern warfare, milliseconds can determine the difference between survival and annihilation. Human protocols for assessing and responding to nuclear threats involve numerous layers of verification, command chains, and complex decision-making processes that can consume valuable time—time that may not be available in the event of an imminent attack. ChatGPT could evaluate the threat, weigh potential responses, and execute a decision far more rapidly than any human could, potentially averting disaster in situations where every second counts.

Moreover, AI offers the promise of consistency in policy implementation. Human beings, despite their training, often interpret orders and policies differently based on their judgment, experiences, or even personal biases. In contrast, ChatGPT could be programmed to strictly follow the established rules of engagement and nuclear protocols as defined by national or international law. This consistency would mean a reliable application of nuclear strategy that does not waver due to individual perspectives, stress levels, or subjective interpretations. It ensures that every action taken is in alignment with predetermined guidelines, reducing the risk of rogue actions or decisions based on misunderstandings.

Another argument in favor of this idea is the AI's potential for continuous learning and adaptation. Unlike human operators, who require years of training, might retire, and need to be replaced, ChatGPT could be continually updated with the latest information, threat scenarios, and technological advancements. It could learn from historical data, ongoing global incidents, and advanced simulations to refine its decision-making capabilities continually. This would enable the nuclear command structure to always have a decision-making entity that is at the cutting edge of knowledge and strategy, unlike human commanders who may become outdated in their knowledge or be influenced by past biases.

United Kingdom. Getting called a white supremacist for liking architecture really is something

As a Christian, the guy is literally an anti-christ, lol. Although I can see people voting for him because they dislike Kamala more

What if you live in Europe, though? I like our classical architecture, and I saw a post advocating for different countries to go back to their historical architecture instead of big plain concrete and glass boxes

Same if you're interested in religion. There's a lot of anti semetism about. Personally I think trad_west isn't too bad. But I follow them on Instagram, not twitter.

Also saw them making fun of Andrew Tate and people who degrade women.

A reward if you manage to take cover

Can you not use some form of explosive charge

A bit suppressive lol

 

Hi, I'm running a ubuntu based backup server. And was wondering if there's a simple way to encrypt my drives in case they get swiped or something by a break in. But also in a way that the computer can be restarted and decrypt the drive without me needing to stick a key in everytime. Any ideas? It seems basic but I'm not an expert on all these newfangled encryption terminology, so would like something idiot proof (by idiot proof, not idiot enough to lose/forget the decryption key)

 
 
 
 

I have a raspberry pi running postfix. I Realised unless I open port 25 I absolutely cannot receive emails (I have 587 open and can send but not receive them). However I heard there are scaries online which someone could potentially send emails from your server without consent. I believe as well my ISP doesn't block port 25. Is there anything I should do right now before opening port 25, or should everything be safe enough?

 

Seems to be Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel who has clips of his sermons go viral online

 

The Chosen is a video series based on the Biblical New Testament. It does like to take a good bit of creative liberty, to make it a good series, such as fleshing out minor characters in the Bible, inventing backstories and personalities for them, many are fully fleshed characters based on some brief description from the Bible.

One of my favourite things they've done was by representing St Matthew The Evangelist - one of Jesus's disciples and author of the Gospel of Matthew - as being autistic. I find him quite a lovable character who I can empathise with at times in the series and I'm really glad for this inclusion 🤣
