It's SkyNet.  Wait for it.  Let it develop.  Mark my words.

It’s totally already going 

we already have fighter pilots dogfighting AI and they’re losing 100% of the time

Brace yourselves, men.

I have the stockpile.  Bring Ammo.  Head to the SouthWest.  Link up.  On familiar terrain that is defensible.

Of course that would be the end goal.

But it would be a little difficult for us east coasters though because of the distance from here to there. We'd probably have to gather at an "SDTF" East rally point first. Assess, then move out. But then there's the whole friends/family contingent. It's not easy for everybody just to pull up stakes and roll out at any given moment. Then the whole logistics of moving a quasi mid to large group of people in a column in any specific direction.

Where it was fun creating and writing the multiple number of "308 AR Teams" stories. They were completely fictitious stories. They were always based on the group of us acting/moving as a unit, whether offensively or defensively. Where in reality, in an Oh $hit scenario, all of us would have others that we would have to take care of/gather up before any major change could happen. Like I said, logistics are a bitch. Not impossible or insurmountable, but just difficult.

Then.......there's fuel needed for all of the vehicles. HA

This is why I also have a stockpile, as do most of us.  (None of us has what @Belt Fed has though.)  I have a remote location, family, and friends that are local that I can rely on to help provide security.  Would it be as strong as a SDTF team defense?  Not in the least.  But it is reachable in a tank of gas for all of us.

It is already happening. And the U.S. government, the Chinese, and ALL the social media companies are enabling it in their lust for more information about each of us. But to paraphrase T.S. Elliot, it won’t happen with a bang, but with a whimper. They won’t need to pull a Sky Net nuclear attack, they will neutralize us one by one, quietly and quickly.

However, my great friend - you have the knowledge, and the practice of applications, to be able to train them up.

Most of us have some shooting skills.  What we would lack is the military skills of patrol and defense.  The only ones in my potential group in the military were in the Air Force.  God help us there.

Well, then, those topics will be something that we discuss on an evening around the campfire.  With the whiteboards.

Need some of these

Covered.  Get the ones that run .22 RamSet blanks.  Way cheaper, and you get the blanks at hardware stores nationwide. 

No. 26 forge sentry alarm mines.

They have an adaptor for .22 blanks, but some day you might need bird shot 😬😬

[98Z5V]

Valid point.

Yep. Back to basics type of thing. It would also be nice to do some rando land nav stuff too.

I can cover that, too, no problem.  We'll go over it all.  If it's only the out-of-towners that are interested in this, then we might actually have a 5-day training event, staying through to Monday this time, instead of breaking camp on Sunday, and getting it done.

This was my other thought on the concept of AI driven firearms.

The finale of this - but not the end of it all.

The Pandora's box has been opened, while they may delay things, the technology has been proven. It's not like OpenAI is the only one out there doing this.

No head north where you won't starve to death while defending....... ! AND.. you won't die of heatstroke while trying to defend AND you have all the water you need.. you can build a igloo out of snow but you can't build one out of sand and cactus..... just saying!!!!
