AI Is the Matrix – And We Are All Part of It

🧠 Introduction: The Matrix Is Here – It Just Looks Different AI is not the Matrix from the movies. It is more dangerous – because it is not perceived as deception. It works through suggestions, text, tools – not through virtuality, but through normalization. AI does not simulate a world – it structures ours. And no one notices, because everyone thinks it’s useful. 🛰️ 1. Invisible but Everywhere – The New Ubiquity The integration of AI into daily life is total – but silent: ...

Digital Control Through AI – What the Stasi Could Never Do

🧠 Introduction: The Human as a Data Record Modern AI-based surveillance systems have created a new reality: Humans are no longer seen as citizens or subjects – but as datasets. Objects of algorithmic evaluation. The Stasi could watch people. AI evaluates them. Technological Basis: AI, Cameras, Pattern Recognition With AI-powered facial recognition, systems don’t just identify individuals – they analyze behavior patterns, emotions, and movements. Systems like Clearview AI or PimEyes turn open societies into statistical sampling zones. ...

ELIZA on steroids: Why GPT is not intelligence

May 4, 2025 – Alexander Renz Translations: DE GPT and similar models simulate comprehension. They imitate conversations, emotions, reasoning. But in reality, they are statistical probability models, trained on massive text corpora – without awareness, world knowledge, or intent. What Does GPT Actually Do? GPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer) is not a thinking system, but a language prediction model. It calculates which token (word fragment) is most likely to come next – based on the context of previous tokens. ...

ELIZA's Rules vs. GPT's Weights: The Same Symbol Manipulation, Just Bigger

ELIZA was a parrot with rules - GPT is a chameleon with probabilities. Yet both remain symbol-manipulating machines without understanding.

Exposing the Truth About AI

🧠 What Is “AI” Really? The term “Artificial Intelligence” suggests thinking, awareness, and understanding. But models like GPT are merely statistical pattern completers – they understand nothing. Statistics ≠ Thinking GPT doesn’t choose the next word because it makes sense, but because it is likely. What it produces is linguistic surface without depth – impressive, but hollow. 🧩 ELIZA vs. GPT – Large-Scale Symbol Manipulation Both ELIZA (1966) and GPT-4 (2023) are based on symbol processing without meaning. The illusion comes from plausible language – not from comprehension. ...
