AI shares alarming images of where tech is leading our kids

The future looks like slavery to augmented reality at the expense of the real world.

On a recent unseasonably warm day in the Northeast, I found myself alone, contemplating society’s relationship with technology while observing people on a beach. My heart sank at what I saw.

Watching families gathered together, more parents and kids than not had their eyes plastered to their phones. Instead of looking out upon the water or spending time playing frisbee or catch with each other, I spotted children crouched on the sand with their backs to their parents engaged with their phones while mothers and fathers stood doing the same.

Our screens are raising our kids, advancing a growing authoritarianism over our kids’ lives by a small number of companies.

They defeated the purpose of going to the beach on every possible level. They could have simply stayed home.

Our society is losing the fight with screens.

Artificial intelligence seems to agree, ironically. And since so many put more credence in AI than in their own eyes, maybe it will help people truly realize where society appears to be headed.

In a recent video, AI shows multiple illustrations of what it believes children looked like from 1800 through today and beyond. Watch and be stunned at how accurate it is historically … which doesn’t bode well for kids or humanity’s future.

Here's how AI perceives our kids through generations

Google really is programming our kids

If we do not exorcise this ideological demon from our educational institutions now, it will own the way our children understand truth for generations.

Google found itself embroiled in controversy last week after the company’s Gemini artificial intelligence demonstrated an almost comical adherence to woke ideology. Multiple users found that the AI had a peculiar bias against white people, removing them from almost every historical context.

Gemini repeatedly rendered popes, Vikings, medieval knights, American founding fathers, and even Nazi SS soldiers without including any white people. When asked if whiteness should be eliminated, the AI replied that the situation was “complicated.” When it was asked if blackness should be eliminated, Gemini said the question was “concerning” and “harmful.”

The idea of going to a library and investigating primary sources that are not constantly monitored, censored, and altered for wrongthink by a woke megacorporation is unfathomable.

This intense level of ideological malice would be concerning in any institution, but Google is in a unique position of power.

Not only is Google’s search engine the primary portal through which most people interact with the internet, the company has also invested heavily in controlling the flow of information in America’s public schools.

Google isn’t just trying to rewrite history. It is actively working to reprogram the minds of our next generation.

While most conservatives are worried about the level of ideological subversion in Big Tech companies and public education, few understand the degree to which these sectors work hand in hand.

Slaves to Chromebook

Google has labored intensely to make its Chromebook ubiquitous in public schools. At first, the affordable laptop replacement seemed like a great way to expose students to the computer skills that are critical in the modern job market. But the device has now become a mandatory part of the classroom.

Teachers deliver and grade all their assignments through Google Classroom. Students write all their papers through Google Docs and create their presentations in Google Slides. Online worksheets, quiz programs, and educational games are designed to integrate with the Google suite. -- excerpt, rest at link above --
