Speaking of PR campaigns (as we were last week in revealing the connections between Obama, Netflix and the 20th century “father of public relations,” Edward Bernays), there is suddenly this new campaign calling for government to regulate AI (Artificial Intelligence).
Critical thinking and spiritual discernment demands that we ask the pre-eminent question: Who is financing and promoting this loud, sudden and shrieking call for the government to regulate AI? (And hurry up and regulate us before AI kills us all… shriek, shriek!)
We discovered the following podcast (by Capital Research) which shows this to be—as our discernment meter was suggesting—just another massive PR campaign to whip up hysteria to force the federal government to act—and in doing so, to lock a couple of leading AI firms into a duopoly, preventing new (and perhaps better idea) companies from entering the marketplace of AI.
It is called regulatory capture (explained in the podcast). The researchers in this podcast mention the curious coincidences which would tell anyone with common sense that this is phony.
Such as (1) how does a kid in his twenties who has had no social media footprint, who has only been working at the Anthropic (AI company) for only three or four months, who suddenly resigns and announces in a thread on X that the world is going to end if we don’t have the government strictly regulate AI, and whose posts suddenly go viral to the amount of about 170 million views on the first day!?
And such as (2) even before Jacob Coxon’s shrieks are posted, the Wall Street Journal has an “exclusive” report on his resignation!? Hmmm… looks to me like an unmistakable sign of prior coordination (conspiracy).
The podcast researchers also mention Coxon’s interview by Bret Baier of Fox News. But the they do not point out that both Fox and the WSJ are properties of the Rupert Murdoch family who are and have never been trustworthy.
The Murdochs are showing their true colors more openly lately. This was evidenced most recently by jettisoning one of their best, Maria Bartiromo, from their line-up.
Here are the opening paragraphs of the podcast. QUOTE:
It’s not every day that the would be masters of the universe are going on television and proclaiming an imminent doomsday, as if they were street preachers or the people who used to walk around public parks with sandwich boards saying “The end is nigh!”
But the heads of major artificial intelligence companies like Anthropic and OpenAI have spent the last couple of weeks doing just that, claiming that they themselves are bringing forth Armageddon and that only government bureaucracy can stop them.
But are these “AI Doomers” a true, organic response to concerns best known by those building the god-machine, or is it a cynical media operation by a mega-business interested in using the regulatory state to lock out potential competitors? Our colleague Parker Thayer, who is skeptical of the motivations of the corporate titans, joins us to discuss. END QUOTE

P. S. Note how quickly President Trump jumped into the fray in the past couple days by claiming the high ground by controlling the language in this information war. He said we need to call it “SI,” for Super Intelligence,” not AI anymore.
He does that a lot. Recent examples: Looks like the names, the Gulf of America and Lake America (formerly Lake Ontario) are going to stick.
