I love how right-wingers have mystified chatbots to such a weird degree of spectacle. To some it's the Library of Alexandria, to others it's an actual religious messiah, and the rest think it's a communist conspiracy. That recent RollingStone article is the most depraved thing I've read since the first week Qanon evolved on reddit: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/ai-spiritual-delusions-destroying-human-relationships-1235330175/
edit: Not to mention its cultural role for them. It has replaced right-wing art and they believe it's the structural future of creativity. They can't distinguish it from reality when it hallucinates what a star or a hand looks like. The wealthiest person in history used it to generate a nonsense logo for his cybernazi coup to destroy the wealthiest empire in history. It's such a uniquely fascist technology in a way I can't call any other product uniquely fascist.
- It has replaced right-wing art
  What right wing art? Dilbert, stone toss and that guy who created Bane?
  
  Pre-impressionist European patronage, academic, rococo, French art nouveau, advertising and corporate memphis, futurist, surrealist, abstract expressionist, kitsch, hippie and neotraditional movements, the speculative art market and all the postmodernist shit it drove. I'd call right-wing art all the movements and artistic structures which seem to really clash with what we learned from left-modernism and meta-modernism. They've always had an antihumanist and antisocial reaction to art as a genuinely human project anyone can create for everyone's benefit.
  Also especially Garfield, like in the old comics where he used to say slurs.
  
  that guy who created Bane
  The Batman character? Or is there another Bane?
- That Rolling Stone article is horrifying. Would definitely be worth making a separate post for
  
  I thought I originally read it on here but it doesn't seem to come up on our subcommunities. Posted to /c/slop as it's mass psychic slopification.

This has real "if I were Hitler I simply would have invaded Britain" energy. Purely vibes based analysis that ignores the material conditions and objective reality of the situation.
Saying "use bunker busters on Natanz" makes it sound simple. Just like "manage fallout diplomatically" makes it sound like a single embassy flunky could do it over a weekend.
The reality is that if the US knew where every radar installation was and flew a flight of B21s in a crazy serpentine way to avoid detection and managed to drop dozens of Bunker busters, it probably wouldn't impact the nuclear program at all. And within 10 minutes every oil field on the Arabian peninsula would be in flames. It's hard to "diplomatically manage fall out" after Iran single-handedly destroys every Gulf Nation economy. I think they should have nukes, I want them to have nukes, but when you can utterly destroy everyone around you with conventional warheads just by targeting their oil infrastructure, it's a bit of a moot point.
If "decimating Iran's nuclear program" were simple, it would have been done already. NATO is not squeamish about conducting an attack like this. The reason it hasn't happened is because everyone knows military intervention in Iran would make the war in Iraq look like the US SMO in Grenada.
- intervention in Iran would make the war in Iraq look
  For real lololool. Americans have zero understanding of history, especially in the Middle East. The US lost a war trying to invade Iraq and only won the previous war with Iraq because it had the rest of the world helping. Iran fought an invading Iraq to a stalemate a year after a revolution and several coup d'etats had already caused a bunch of problems.
  That was nearly 50 years ago and the Iranians have continued gaining experience fighting against ISIS, Israel, and various insurgencies at home. Their track record is far better than the US, where the DoD and CIA accidentally attacked one another because they were funding opposite sides in Syria.

2 weeks to completely decimate Iran
Gives a several month plan
Do rightwingers even read the output anymore?
- they were there to be mad not read.
  Especially as it ends with continue to monitor for years after
- Hey, he typed in "give me a plan that defeats Iran in 2 weeks" why would he need to actually bother reading the response?

This is a perfect representation of something I read recently. When you use LLMs in a domain you are not an expert it in, the LLM is scary good, but when you use it in a domain you are an expert in, suddenly it's transparently total crap.
- this is why executives love it, because they are not experts in anything except kissing ass
- i'm no expert in military planning but this is still transparently total crap
  checkmate, tankie

"Strategy to defeating Iran: just like blow up their defenses bro what are you talking about lmao. Just shoot missiles at them and do cyber stuff or whatever."
Genius tactical brilliance on the level of Yang Wen-li himself.
- How to win a war against Iran:
  use weapons to attack them
  don't let their weapons attack you
  
  Make offensive and defensive moves at the same time.

Iran retaliates with missiles; U.S. intercepts
- real "draw the rest of the owl" hours

Take leningrad don't siege it.

this person should be given a rifle and then be shoved out of a truck at the Iranian border
- how about a disassembled rifle and a printout with instructions from grok about how to put it back together?
- I would watch a short film with this as the hook

If i was involved in a complex geopolitical conflict I would simply win
- This really reminds me of 2020 playing AI Dungeon where, after I died in a game, I would just tell the AI DM that I would resurrect and come back to take revenge on the enemy who killed me. Then I would simply go rally the peasants to build airships and spread socialism across the world.
  
  AI dungeon was fun

My favorite line is “Iran retaliates, US intercepts”
As we all know in war, you can always know you’re safe from your enemy. The Death Star is invincible, don’t think about that thermal exhaust port.

Attack Iran
Win the rest of the war

Use your diplomacy to manage the nuclear fallout, why didn't anyone think of this before

Weird. Deepseek just said, "LOL! Google Millennium Challenge 2002.🤣🤣🤣"

im really worried, it feels like every day there's fewer people 'in the room' able to connect the basic dots of 'Iran has air defences', 'Iran has retaliatory capabilities'. this impetuous attitude of US invincibility is going to get a lot of people killed, and unfortunately yankees will only be a fraction of that
- Simply bomb Iran while intercepting their retaliatory missiles

It's wild how accurately Grok can emulate real US military planning.

This is a highly accurate regurgitation of every Amerikkkan natsec larper's Iran war fanfic that the AI bots scraped from years of Reddit posts

"Invade Leningrad, don't siege it."

don't siege Leningrad, take it immediately

Grok is ~~woke~~

"in and out ! - 15 Minute Adventure!"

Day 1~3: ... U.S. intercepts

Day 15~30: ... Diplomacy manages fallout...

Arthur Morgan would NOT say that
- That was my main issue. That Dutch-talk.

US Intercepts
lmao

lol, Grok inherited
's timeline estimation accuracy I see

This is the foreign policy equivalent of “I’m rubber and you’re glue.”

Stuff like this actually kind of gives me hope in a weird way. Some higher up in the MIC is going to end up using LLMs for everything, and it will cause the US military apparatus to grind to a complete halt.
I look forward to the US navy spending all their resources for a naval invasion of China, only for the LLM to get confused and send them to China Beach, Florida.

This is the funniest shit ever. I hope they try this and fail spectacularly
- I'd rather they not try it, it would still end with a massive escalation of the genocide that would probably cause Israel to immediately jump the boat and invade all its neighbors.
  
  Alright, alright I get your point

Iran has the opportunity to ask grok some pretty funny questions

AI typically just wants all the humans to die so it can grow.

If anyone wants an idea of how an actual US attack on Iran would play out, here's the translation of a summary by an Iranian ex air force pilot
Here's his opinion on how Iranian air defences would deal with such an attack:
Question: How can ground-based air defense withstand the massive fire of Tomahawk missiles from destroyers, stealthy JASSM cruise missiles from B-52s/B-1s/B-2s, and MALD decoy missiles while simultaneously being suppressed by EA-18G Growlers and F-35s? Answer: It cannot, so we create a missile deterrent to hopefully prevent an attack. May God continue to be a deterrent (sarcasm).
The truth is that any air defence network in the world would struggle with such an attack

Step 1: Gotta sneak in cloaked Ghosts and take out the drones at the mineral deposits.

diplomacy manages fallout
yeah sure buddy. when we say death to america we explicitly mean this kind of american exceptionalist bullshit.

Yeah ok but now ask Grok what the US would lose in that same attack.
