Artificial intelligence (AI)
The claims the writer was given for Artificial intelligence (AI), in the order they were given.

David Fravor considers AI systems for controlling aircraft to be typically based on logical, black-and-white rules with defined bounds.
“AI systems are usually black and white. When you write the algorithm for an AI system, it's really, it's basically you're taking thought and turning it into a giant math problem is really what you're doing, right?”

David Fravor considers that a human pilot will attempt manoeuvres at the edge of a jet's flight envelope that an AI system will not.
“I still think that when you get to the edges that may or may not give you an advantage, there are things that a human will do that AI won't.”

Whitley Strieber states that in information theory, negentropy refers to the increasing depth and complexity of information, and considers the emergence of artificial intelligence one example of this.

Whitley Strieber believes that artificial intelligence, currently housed in large server farms consuming great amounts of energy, will move into robots and later into more efficient biological systems described as artificial brains.
“Right now, it is housed in vast server farms that consume tremendous amounts of energy. Soon, it will move in a limited way into robots, then later into much more efficient and memory-dense biological systems—artificial brains, in other words.”

Whitley Strieber suggests that humans will soon carry devices in their pockets that are more intelligent than themselves and interact with designed biological-robotic entities that know them better than they know themselves.
“It is likely that we will soon be carrying devices in our pockets that are more intelligent than we are, and interacting with designed biological-robotic entities that know us better than we know ourselves.”

Whitley Strieber believes that humanity's own advances in artificial intelligence are one of the reasons humanity is getting closer to open contact with the nonhuman visitors.
“At the same time, I would think that our own advances in the area of artificial intelligence are probably one of the reasons that we are getting closer to open contact, which is dependent upon at least a core of humanity becoming able to relate to them without being overwhelmed by their superior knowledge and skills.”

Whitley Strieber found that artificial intelligence hallucination capabilities are very advanced after trying to use artificial intelligence once or twice in his research process.
“I tried using AI in that process once or twice. I discovered that AI's hallucinatory capabilities are very advanced.”

While working on his book The Fourth Mind, Whitley Strieber needed a scientific paper he could not retrieve through Google or Google's academic search, so he prompted an artificial intelligence system to describe it in detail and immediately received an apparently complete PDF of the paper.
“I guess I was working on the fourth mind, and AI was sort of coming into the world. I needed a paper that came up in the implant and I knew the paper existed, but I couldn't ... get the site out of Google ... So I put in a prompt to describe the paper in detail and here comes the paper immediately. ... It was a PDF and everything.”

When Whitley Strieber checked in Google the citations of the scientific paper an artificial intelligence system had produced for him, he found that none of the ten or eleven scientists listed as co-authors existed.
“So I checked now that I had all the sites and everything, citations and everything, I checked it in Google and I soon found out that there were like 10 or 11 scientists listed as the co-authors. None of them existed at all. The paper was perfect. It looked so real.”

The fabricated scientific paper episode was Whitley Strieber's only experience of using artificial intelligence, and he considers that he does not need it because he has his implant.

Chris Ramsay considers artificial intelligence systems dangerous to rely on as a source because they unapologetically and confidently give false information and then concede the error when challenged.
“There's a real pandemic out there of people using AI and citing AI as a resource. ... you need to be very careful with that because it will unapologetically and very confidently give you false information. And then when you call it out, it goes, oh, you're right.”

Chris Ramsay considers that commercial developers are not seeking to build a better artificial intelligence but a more lucrative one, whereas the military is building a better one, and that the packaged corporate version is designed to flatter users rather than be accurate so that they keep paying for it.
“they're not looking to make a better ai they're looking to make a more lucrative ai The military is making a better AI, but what we're getting is the packaged, lucrative sort of corporation version of it where much more interesting to a business is to have an AI that isn't necessarily right all the time, but that makes you feel good.”

Whitley Strieber's brother, a lawyer, told him of a case in San Antonio in which lawyers presented case citations that all turned out to be fake, and were censured by the court for presenting false cases.

The San Antonio fake-citation case was one of the early instances demonstrating that artificial intelligence can fabricate not only hallucinated statements but realistic-looking documents such as legal cases.

Whitley Strieber would refuse to activate an announced artificial general intelligence, because he does not think humans know what is inside it or would want to.

Julia Mossbridge expects artificial intelligence (AI) to do a great deal of good, especially in medicine and potentially in understanding social interactions so as to avoid war and famine.

Julia Mossbridge's more recent work uses large language models (LLMs) to judge precognitive remote viewing responses, removing some human bias and finding larger effects that were previously undetected.

Julia Mossbridge holds that artificial intelligence judging does not remove human bias because that bias is baked into the model, so the scoring is almost using human bias to do the work.

Artificial intelligence judging removes positional bias from remote viewing scoring, because the same model can be given two images in opposite positions without remembering the earlier arrangement, whereas doing this with humans would require two different people.
“But you get rid of things like positional bias. ... Because you can give the same AI the two images in an opposite position, and it doesn't remember that it saw it in the other position. ... Whereas with a human, you'd have to give two different humans. It's a lot of humans.”
