Confused or Propaganda?
13 July 2023
It's somewhat confused about whether it wants to present AI used for defense as a moral threat or necessary "for the safety of our nation." Many groans during this documentary.

As such it comes across as propaganda designed to lead the viewer to the tired trope: "it's frightening but our adversaries are developing it too." and "one nation will not agree..". The audience groans knowing which nation that will be. Namely the one in the documentary.

Protagonists such as the Navy Seal guy (clearly a psychopath) is presented as reasonable voice, yet for most viewers imbues a deep sense of immorality.

A Secretary of Defense talks about "saving lives," whilst a Lockheed Martin employee talks about wildfires. This insults our intelligence. Human not artificial.

Netflix scores another propaganda hit.
