Pentagon AI more ethical than adversaries’ because of ‘Judeo-Christian society,’ USAF general says::The path to ethical AI is a “very important discussion” being held at DOD’s “very highest levels,” says service’s programs chief.

Well I just lost some faith in the United States Air Force. Now I’m worried if we can trust them with General Electric 2.1 megaton hydrogen bombs. The USAF has more than a few.
The US military has a wide range of generals, all the way from people who can barely stop themselves from dribbling while staring at a wall for hours as entertainment, to actual competent ones.
At least this guy is just a moron, some of them are very dangerous. For example US Army General Wesley Clark, who ordered someone to basically start WW3, which didn’t go through because several officers refused to listen to him. Then he ran for president as a democrat, withdres. He later started a consulting firm and now runs a “boutique investment bank”.
No way! James Blunt, of all people, appears in this story?! You couldn’t make it up!
Huh, I didn’t click the Wikipedia link until I read your comment because I assumed it was a name coincidence. Man, that guy has had one hell of a life.
weeeeeellllll…

Israel got their shit from somewhere and have not done live testing as far as we know. So I’m willing to bet these “disappearances” are a lot like supply “disappearances” that conveniently end up in the hands of various far right militias they support. Or the “accounting errors” that conveniently result in people they support getting shit loads of funding without any need for congressional decisions.
The ones at the bottom of the ocean are almost certainly still there, or were eventually retrieved by military diving teams but without mention to the press because why would they?
It depends on the size of the search area, which is often comparable to large states in the US. Locating famous wrecks like Titanic and Bismark can be a major undertaking.
And then if it’s deep like Titanic retrieval may be too expensive, too risky or both.
You had faith in the USAF?
For <checks> approaching eighty years, they’ve been pretty good at not dropping any nuclear weapons, even those bombs had a very simple launch code to arm. The rise of Christian Nationalism in the US armed forces has been a concern since the new century and the 9/11 attacks (and subsequent PATRIOT act). I’m not sure Judeo-Christian values and Artificial Intelligence is a benign mix.
