Have we all heard about Search Engine Optimization (SEO)? Its basically manipulating search engine results to get specific links to be higher. We also know for a fact that Google and now DuckDuckGo are pushing what they consider sites that have authoritative information (i.e. legacy news) versus those alternate sites with 'dangerous' disinformation and misinformation. So due to this, I hope most of us look at least one or two pages deep to see what might just have slipped to the next page that would have ranked higher with a vanilla search.
But there is another thing to be cautious about... have you noticed the button on Google saying "I'm Feeling Lucky" ? If you click on that, it takes you automatically to the number one rated site. No need to bother yourself about multiple messy results that you need to shift through. And if you think about it, every time you ask one of your digital assistants a question, you are using their Google style "I'm Feeling Lucky" button. So just think about how easily it would be to manipulate masses of people simply by making sure one site is listed number one all the time.
Well, that thought occurred to some other groups, and here is a link to one:

"Data-intermediaries" is a fancy name for search engines or digital assistants.
Coupled with what Google is doing as exposed by a leaked source to Project Veritas ( https://www.projectveritas.com/news/insider-blows-whistle-exec-reveals-google-plan-to-prevent-trump-situation-in-2020-on-hidden-cam/ ), this appears an attempt to be able to "program humans".... I attempted to capture the screen shots in the linked document.
Not sure about you, but I want messy analogue results that force me to think and pick out what is real and what is being promoted. And I want to resist any "programming" coming from the powers that shouldn't be.
James Corbett talks about exactly this in his "Future of Censorship" video, check it out: https://www.corbettreport.com/futurecensorship/
So with that, Alexa, you are fired. And Siri, and Hey Google, and Cortana...
Trying out something new, a video message.
Also to back this up is a good article from Glen Greenwald about how our capacity to reason diminishes during the highly charged climate surrounding a war and war propaganda from BOTH sides.

You would have to be living under a rock to not have heard about AI. Artificial Intelligence, either the great savior of human kind, or the precursor to Sky-net that will destroy us all. Which is it?
First of all, this post was NOT written by AI. So apologies for any mistakes. There is a confusion in terms I believe, as most of the AI's people are thinking of (ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini, etc.) are really LLM or Large Language Models. These are not really "intelligent" but just using mathematics to predict what words are needed to complete the question. Which is why people say AI "lies" too much. Not really, its just predicting words that complete the query and has no concept of what even lying really is.
So is it a bubble? Is it the next industrial revolution? This is the question of the day, and to help answer it, let me point to a few videos that have just been released that give relevant information:

Michael Saylor shared something recently that may have gone unnoticed by most.... he said it in an interview with Tom Bilyeu recently.... here is the clip:

MICHAEL SAYLOR: The first nation to print their own currency to buy Bitcoin wins.
Paul from invest answers then also put together the fact that MSTR is applying to issue more stock to buy more BTC.... is that the same thing? Basically, people will be using fiat to buy stock that will be used to purchase BTC. But the BTC supply is limited.... so get your MSTR (or your BTC) soon! (NOT financial advice....)
But this is not what Satoshi's original 2008 whitepaper (https://bitcoin.org/en/bitcoin-paper) had in mind when it developed Bitcoin, it was suppose to be a peer to peer cashless transaction system, right?
Roger Ver thinks so, and wrote a book about it called Hijacking Bitcoin. This video is a summary of that book ...
