End Times
摘要
This chapter first asks, is victory possible? For Israel it is not. Then it looks at the deeper issues raised by “The Trap of Terrorism” and the growing danger of Israel’s expanded regional war (military operations in the West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran) leading to the possibility of “General War.” The role of technology in these escalations is clear, so that leads to question “Can AI Be Controlled?” Looking first at military AI and then the whole field, it seems probably not. The chapter ends with an explanation of how this conflict, and the driving dynamics of high-tech and ancient myths, could produce the Torture of Gaza with nothing but “The Paradox of Hope” to sustain us.
