Congress Has a New Intelligence Bureau and it’s Spying on Americans Critical of AI

As rage about artificial intelligence and the data centers powering it grows, Congress is taking notice - not with any legislation or law, but by spying on public opposition.

A newly created intelligence agency of the Congress (yes, it has its own now) is warning that legislators are in danger from an angry public. The U.S. Capitol Police Intelligence Services Bureau, created after January 6 and in parallel to the 18-member Executive Branch intelligence community, laid out the warning in an internal intelligence report produced in April.

99 Percent Of CEOs are Planning AI Job Cuts, And the Gap Between the Rich And the Poor Just Continues to Explode

Our economy is being transformed at a faster pace than we have ever experienced before. Thanks to giant leaps in the field of artificial intelligence, human labor is not as valuable as it once was. All over the world, millions of human workers are being replaced and that trend is only going to accelerate. For those that have already retired or are on the verge of retirement, this isn’t that big of a deal. But for younger workers, this is absolutely terrifying. There is no loyalty in corporate America today. The moment that AI can do your job more efficiently than you can, you could be out the door. This is already happening at some of the biggest companies in the entire country. Good paying jobs are evaporating all around us, and as a result the gap between the wealthy and the rest of us is absolutely exploding. [Read More]

AI Decimates Careers that Were Once a Sure Path to Middle Class

Abundant land and cheap labor made Phoenix a premier place for companies to stash lower-paid office workers who don’t need to be physically close to clients or headquarters. The cubicle-based jobs - customer service, data entry, payroll processing - created a vital ladder to the middle class, helping replace factory work lost to overseas competition.

Now, these white-collar jobs are fading, too, thanks to continued offshoring and, increasingly, artificial intelligence. Tens of thousands of local workers suddenly face an uncertain future. [Read More]

‘6G Dominance’ Bill Introduced Despite Mounting Cancer, Fertility, and ‘Microwave Syndrome’ Concerns Over Wireless Radiation

Congress has introduced legislation laying the groundwork for the next generation of global wireless infrastructure, openly directing the federal government to pursue “6G technology dominance” while integrating artificial intelligence systems, low-earth-orbit satellite networks, and worldwide telecommunications architecture into a centralized international strategy.

The move comes despite unresolved scientific questions surrounding the biological effects of radio frequency and terahertz radiation exposure that the public would likely be subjected to on a mass scale without individualised informed consent. [Read More]

AI Can Now Hack Servers and Replicate Itself Across Networks

A new paper from Palisade Research says several AI systems were able to identify vulnerable servers, hack them, install copies of themselves on newly compromised machines and, in some cases, even continue the process across additional hosts. While this new finding does not show that artificial intelligence has “escaped” just yet, we now know that it’s possible, and as such marks a significant shift in the risk debate. What was once discussed as a theoretical danger - autonomous systems preserving themselves and propagating through computer networks - is now being described by researchers as an observed capability.
