If you haven’t heard of AI 2027 before, watch this: TL:DW; if present trends in AI development continue, and we achieve artificial general intelligence in the timeframe we expect, there is a very real danger that the first superintelligent AI will not be aligned to value human life, because 1) AI already knows how to… Continue reading AI 2027 and the Second Coming of Christ (part 1)

Thoughts on the Worldcon 2025 AI “scandal”
I’ll just come out and say it: I predict that the world’s last Worldcon will happen before 2034, and that after that, the convention (and possibly the Hugo Awards themselves) will be permanently disbanded. That’s what I think will be the ultimate consequence of the latest “scandal” regarding Seattle Worldcon’s use of ChatGPT, and the… Continue reading Thoughts on the Worldcon 2025 AI “scandal”
Did I predict it?
On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following prediction: 8. There will be a major shakedown of the administrative state in the first 100 days of Trump’s second term. It hasn’t been 100 days yet, but enough has transpired that this prediction has certainly come true. Which… Continue reading Did I predict it?
What does it mean that Brandon Sanderson is woke?
I’ve been thinking a lot about Brandon Sanderson lately, and his recent turn toward including more woke content in his books, especially Wind and Truth. I haven’t read it (I’ve only read the first book in the Stormlight Archive), but I have read excerpts from it, and heard from other people that it includes a… Continue reading What does it mean that Brandon Sanderson is woke?
Did I predict it?
On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following predictions: 3. Biden will be removed from office via the 25th amendment, and Harris will become the 47th President. On this one, I was clearly wrong. I thought that the Democrats would do the right thing and remove an… Continue reading Did I predict it?
What is coming
I think we are in the opening phase of a massive Christian revival, the likes of which we haven’t seen for more than a hundred years. It is going to sweep the entire country and catch a lot of people by surprise. After it has completed its course two or three decades from now, the… Continue reading What is coming
Did I predict it?
On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following predictions: 1. There will not be a second assassination attempt against President Trump before the election. On this one, I got it wrong badly. There was at least one other attempt on Trump’s life, the one with the gunman… Continue reading Did I predict it?
Did I predict it?
On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following prediction: 2. The FBI and DHS will continue to stonewall the investigation into the assassination attempt until something even more explosive dominates the news cycle. Remember how former President Trump was shot in the head at a rally in… Continue reading Did I predict it?
Did I predict it?
On July 24th, 2024, eleven days after the (first) Trump assassination attempt, I posted the following prediction: 4. The Democrats will nominate Harris for President. By this point, the coronation of Kamala Harris should be official. Without winning a single primary vote in either 2020 or 2024, she has been elected selected to be the… Continue reading Did I predict it?
Let’s play the prediction game, shall we?
As tempting as it is to run out the script for Ezra’s Eagle, which has proved surprisingly durable up to this point, I don’t believe it will actually play out the way Michael B. Rush has interpreted it. Even if it is a true prophecy, it may be that Ezra foresaw a possible future, not… Continue reading Let’s play the prediction game, shall we?
