It must be demons, said Psychiatry
The list of explanations above tracks psychiatry’s main theories, narratives and social messages over 200 years. Many people are unaware of the origins and belief systems which underpin psychiatry. Even many psychiatrists do not know that their discipline was chiefly founded and spread by the church. Religion has always been intertwined with psychiatry.
Sep 3, 2022 – An exploration of the term Quiet Quitting which keeps appearing in corporate propaganda articles. There is already a term for this that more correctly blames employers called Work to Rule. We explore the labor implications of such a term and some of the articles that blame employees and low end management instead of executives and the system of Capitalism.
Quiet Quitting is Work to Rule via Anarchistara
I’m not even bothering to link to any corporate media articles, on “quiet quitting”, as they mostly tend to demonize workers, for not working overtime, or taking on extra work. When I worked overtime, on a salary, I was only paid $3 per hour (minimum wage was $7.25 and still is), after 40 hours, and most of the time, it was mandatory overtime. I was expected to do the same work, as everyone else (who made $7.25 + time and a half for overtime), and manage the business at the same time (I was young, single, and dumb). I’m not going to demonize anyone for not going above and beyond without proper compensation.
AI to the Rescue as the Military Continues to Struggle With Pilot Shortage
Only further causing headache this year was the fact that the Air Force had to temporarily ground nearly 300 trainer aircraft over concerns that their ejection seats would not fire correctly in an emergency. The problem, which also impacted the entire Air Force’sF-35A Lightning II fleet, was also discovered in 203 T-38 Talons and 76 T-6 Texans IIs.

There are now various efforts underway to use advanced technology to address the pilot shortage gap. The United States Air Force and Merlin Labs are now developing software that could allow the Lockheed Martin C-130J Hercules to fly with just a single pilot, whereby artificial intelligence (AI) would act as the second pilot. The C-130, built at Lockheed Martin’s facilities in Marietta, Georgia, now holds the record for the longest continuous production run of any military aircraft – first entering service in 1954.

The software will be able to follow verbal instructions* from air traffic control, while the goal is for it to respond much like a human pilot. It is just one of several efforts currently underway to explore how AI can fill the pilot shortage.
The U.S. Army is also looking at how AI could be employed in its aircraft. Earlier this year, a Sikorsky UH-60A successfully conducted a 30-minute flight over Fort Campbell, Kentucky. It had no pilot or aircrew. The test was conducted as part of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s (DARPA) Aircrew Labor In-Cockpit Automation System (ALIAS) program.

“All modern combat jets are inherently instable, which makes them more maneuverable, and only fly due to the help of a computer,” explained technology industry analyst Roger Entner of Recon Analytics.
Hope that it’s better than Apple’s Voice Control.
