The Pentagon wants $54 billion to build AI-powered autonomous killing machines, casually glossing over the fact that experts say the military is completely unprepared for the risks. Nothing says 'responsible governance' like a hundredfold funding increase for drone warfare while admitting you have no idea what you're doing. At least when ChatGPT hallucinates, it doesn't come with a warhead attached.
