This framing also builds a case for AI being a Second Amendment issue in the US, which seems to work against Anthropic here.

I’m going to start open carrying a DGX Spark.

Here is an example from the conflict in Ukraine.

Ukraine is currently leading a long strikes campaign. You could prompt the right model to A. Find all the refineries in Russia B. For each refinery annotate all the equipment, find the most value-able C. Make a fluid model of the refinery and figure out which components most likely to set off a chain reaction if hit.

Add stuff like drone swarms monitoring the front line etc on top of that.

Supply chain issues like rare earths are real… but not really related.

> My current understanding is a lot of current US military problems are due to rare earths supply chains.

Most current US military problems are due to the incompetence of its current civilian leadership.

I see a very clear link, very capable AI models are clearly able to find and exploit cyber vulnerabilities at a speed and scale not possible before. In the right hands, that's clearly a weapon

I don't know how much of an edge hacking skills really give in war these days. A lot of America's adversaries seem to have learned tactics to deal with getting hacked. For example, Russia has these drones that use fiber optic cable so there is no way to jam or hack them.
