Psychological warfare.

“ It would be ... not misplaced to refer to their capabilities as akin to digital nuclear weapons”

Misplaced indeed.

“Digital nuclear weapons”?

A BGP storm that cripples the ultra secret DWAN would be so catastrophic. Or jamming Satellite infrastructures. LLMs? Laughable.

A smarty pants LLM would be only as useful as its training data. True super AGI would need deductive skills capable of picking every psychological, digital, and physical lock. Terrifying.

I wish they could accept they are already owned by their thought control. America’s own nuclear extortionists.

The metric here is panic response. Fear sells! Only useful if you have what others are buying.
