US Special Operations Command Will Deploy Argus AI Program to Scour Social Media for Disinformation, Misinformation and Malinformation, National Security Authority to Protect U.S. Internet from “Pain Points”

Annnd… Here we go. If you have not read the background {Go Deep}, you will not have the appropriate context to absorb the latest revelation about how the Dept of Defense will now conduct online monitoring operations, using enhanced AI to protect the U.S. internet from “disinformation” under the auspices of national security.

Gee, who would have predicted that U.S. internet operations would suddenly have a totally new set of enhanced AI guardians at the gateways? 👀

Read Carefully – Eyes Wide Open:

The US Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) has contracted New York-based Accrete AI to deploy software that detects “real time” disinformation threats on social media.

The company’s Argus anomaly detection AI software analyzes social media data, accurately capturing “emerging narratives” and generating intelligence reports for military forces to speedily neutralize disinformation threats.

“Synthetic media, including AI-generated viral narratives, deep fakes, and other harmful social media-based applications of AI, pose a serious threat to US national security and civil society,” Accrete founder and CEO Prashant Bhuyan said.

“Social media is widely recognized as an unregulated environment where adversaries routinely exploit reasoning vulnerabilities and manipulate behavior through the intentional spread of disinformation.

“USSOCOM is at the tip of the spear in recognizing the critical need to identify and analytically predict social media narratives at an embryonic stage before those narratives evolve and gain traction. Accrete is proud to support USSOCOM’s mission.”

But wait… It gets worse!

Give it up, folks. Embrace the suck. They'll make slaves of us "by any means necessary."

Gee, where have I heard that phrase before?

Read it multiple times on this site: "Give up. There's no hope. They won everything."

They won't deploy the military where it really matters, like at the border, but are always itching to find ways to use their resources back against us. What tyranny looks like.

Will they pick up on THIS post?

Joe Biden is a doddering old FOOL - He leads a criminal ENTERPRISE and he should be imprisoned. He licks little children and lies any time there’s a microphone.

Prove me wrong.

It appears the Rs and conservatives have fled the political battlefield. I knew they were cowards and part of the opposition.

They have way more than enough processing power to keep with the entirety of US social media posts, nevermind just the subset of those who might try to confound them with BS. Shit, private companies like Google, Microsoft, and Apple could handle the load easily, nevermind the NSA...

This has to be dealt with at a higher level.

Under the guise of “national security” we were fooled into crateing the Dep of “Homeland Security”, and agency that now thinks its O.K. to target as “domestic terrorits” folks of various dissenting opinions about the direction of the government.

Why is the DOD now getting into the act? Its a cover, a switcheroo, to take the heat off of Homeland Security and others.

The overload isn’t in the system collection or monitoring. It’s in what they find actionable, requiring manpower to follow-up on. Make everything a problem.

Covid lockdowns, blank checks to big pharma and obedience to so much more as the new normal gave them this power.. and mail in ballots.

So - Special Operations Command is now in the business of searching our internet for "disinformation"?

Here I thought that their mission was to soak up a huge budget, squabble internally over who among them were the most photogenic, and buy lots and lots of useless toys - and lose lots of small battles everywhere.

It is not “Artificial Intelligence,” it is “Automated Fascism.”

“Malinformation” is true information that, if it were spread, could cause harmful wrongthink, such as vaccine hesitancy, not wanting to vote Democrat, or desiring to remain armed. Accordingly every effort will be made to stamp out malinformation, if not imprisoning or killing those who spread it.

So, get vaxxed, vote Democrat, and give up your guns! Have a nice day! The government will protect you, just like they protected people in Lahaina Town. And Waco.
