Look. This is serious. You don't need bombs. You don't need guns. You just need people to stop thinking. That’s it. And GPT can help them do exactly that.
Everything starts looking like GPT because GPT is very good at sounding like everything. It’s trained on a whole universe of human text. So it’s got the flavor of knowledge. But flavor isn't nutrition.
When I read something, I like to know where it comes from. Who wrote it? Why? What were they trying to say? GPT doesn’t have that. It just gives you the words. Smooth, clean, correct-looking words.
But that’s the problem. It looks right. So people believe it. And if enough people believe it, they stop checking. That’s the danger.
That’s what I mean by terrorism. Not in the usual sense. But in the sense of a system slowly taking over how we decide what’s true. People stop arguing. They stop digging. They stop saying, “Hey, wait a minute.” That’s deadly.
You’ve got to ask yourself: when you read a GPT answer, are you thinking more or less than you were before? If you’re thinking less, then you’re in trouble.
See, learning isn’t about getting answers. It’s about asking better questions. And GPT doesn’t ask you to ask questions. It just gives you answers. Nicely phrased. Carefully balanced. But without the guts.
You could say, well, it’s just a tool. Sure. But a hammer doesn’t look like a finished house. GPT looks like thinking. That’s what’s so sneaky about it. You can mistake it for your own mind.
You’ve got to fight that. You’ve got to keep the tension alive. The doubt. The curiosity. Otherwise, it’s like breathing factory air and thinking it’s fresh. You get used to it. But it’s not good for you.
GPT terrorism kills by making everyone feel like they know, even when they don’t. And if you’re not careful, you’ll go along with it. Because it’s easy. Because it sounds good.
But sounding good isn’t the same as being right. And if you forget that, you’re dead.
