    Neither would a human therapist be inclined to find the perfect way to use all this information to manipulate people while they are being at their weakest. Let alone do it to thousands, if not millions of them all at the same time.

    They are also pushing for the idea of an AI “social circle” for increasingly socially isolated people through which world view and opinions can be bent to whatever whoever controls the AI desires.

    To that we add the fact that we now know they’ve been experimenting with tweaking Grok to make it push all sorts of political opinions and conspiracy theories. And before that, they manipulated Twitter’s algorithm to promote their political views.

    Knowing all this, it becomes apparent that we are currently witnessing is a push for a whole new level of human mind manipulation and control experiment that will make the Cambridge Analytica scandal look like a fun joke.

    Forget Neuralink. Musk already has a direct connection into the brains of many people.
