Artificial intelligence (“AI”) is not sentient, it is simply a computer program that manipulates a collection of data. The danger is if we are tricked into believing it is all-knowing.
In a recent article, Brandon Smith argues that AI is a deliberate attempt to create an artificial god, leading to many worshipping a false idol, when it is simply part of a larger agenda to control and manipulate society.

The current technology referred to as AI does not align with our traditional understanding of what AI is. It is not self-aware, it is not genuinely autonomous, and it has not demonstrated significant utility in practical terms. We have yet to see any major scientific discoveries made by an AI program, nor have we witnessed advancements that could positively impact the future of humanity.
Brandon Smith, founder of Alt-Market, has noticed that many proponents of AI are subtly altering their definitions of what AI is or should be. Initially, the vision was to create a new lifeform – a superintelligence or a digital god. However, it seems that these advocates are starting to abandon the criteria of self-awareness and consciousness, likely because they realise those concepts are not feasible.
AI is not truly intelligent, but rather a collection of data being manipulated by humans with questionable agendas. AI will never be alive or become a form of true consciousness.
But if this is the case, why would AI be a threat to civilisation? “It’s not so much that AI will turn on us or send out an army of robots to kill us; the real danger is that we will be tricked into believing that it really is all-knowing. If we rely on such faulty tech too much it could destroy us merely by giving us bad information and making us lazy,” Smith wrote.
Smith gives three possible consequences of AI that concern him the most; consequences which he doesn’t think most people have considered.
The AI Hive Mind
An “AI Hive Mind” is where people rely too heavily on AI for information, leading to a loss of diversity in thought and a global hive mentality.
This hive mind could be facilitated by AI-powered search engines and answer functions that provide immediate, but potentially biased or false, information, causing people to stop researching sources and alternative views.
Smith cited the mass government censorship of covid-19 information as an example of how this level of information control could become the standard, leading to a loss of critical thinking and diversity of thought.
“It would mean self destruction if we constantly agreed and never questioned our path as a species. Yet, the hive mind is exactly what Globalists are pushing us towards,” Smith wrote.
The Dead Internet Theory
The Dead Internet Theory proposes that self-generating AI bots could spread across the web, invading social media and comment sections, and injecting propaganda to create the illusion of widespread support for certain ideologies.
