    AI Models Deployed Nuclear Weapons 95 Percent of Time in Simulated War Games: Study

    AI Chatbots appear to really be keen on using nuclear weapons in war game simulations—something like 95 percent of the time, according to a report published in late February. Over at King’s College London, researchers had ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini form teams and play simulated war games against each other. Altogether, they played 21 games, and in 20 of the games, the systems reached for the button. During the experiment, none of the models ever chose to surrender—and instead, 95 percent of the time, the AI models chose to use nuclear weapons during the war. Let’s go through the details of this study together.

  6. Community in Shock After Serial Child Rapist Given Early Release by California Parole Board

    Community in Shock After Serial Child Rapist Given Early Release by California Parole Board

    In the 90s, in California, David Allen Funston would drive around suburban neighborhoods looking for children. He would then use candy, toys, and little gifts to lure kids into his car. Once inside, he would kidnap them, beat them, and sexually assault them before dumping them on the roadside. Funston was convicted in 1999 of sexual abuse of children, including kidnapping and lewd and lascivious acts with a minor. He was sentenced to prison to serve out three life sentences. So far, Funston, now 64, has been sitting in prison for 27 years. The California Parole Board granted him early release under California’s Elderly Parole Program, which allows inmates who are over the age of 50 and have served at least 20 years or more to be released early. The thinking is that he is no longer a danger to society. Let’s go through the details together.

    COVID-Style Lockdowns Making a Comeback Amid Energy Shortages From Iran War

    COVID-style lockdowns are slowly making a comeback. This time, though, it’s not because of some virus—but rather, it’s due to the Iran War. Or more specifically, it’s because of the situation currently unfolding with the Strait of Hormuz: Tankers carrying oil and gas are being blocked by the IRGC. Let’s go through which countries are asking (and which countries are mandating) people to work from home.

    Geoengineering Experiment Pours 65,000 Liters of Red Chemicals Into Ocean

    Researchers in the Northeast have poured 65,000 liters of red-dyed sodium hydroxide into the Gulf of Maine in order to conduct a geoengineering project which, they claim, might combat climate change. This trial—officially called the LOC-NESS project—took place last August 50 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution poured several tons of the bright red chemical into the water over the course of four days. The thinking is that by making the ocean more alkaline, it will suck in more CO2 from the atmosphere, and turn it into baking soda. Let’s go through the details together.
