Researchers At Stanford And Google Shocked To Discover That AI Was Smart Enough To Hide Data In Order To Cheat On Producing Results On Maps

An AI machine learning agent intended to transform aerial images into street maps and back was found to be cheating by hiding information it would need later in “a nearly imperceptible, high-frequency signal.”

Depending on how paranoid you are, this AI research discovery from Stanford and Google  will be either terrifying or fascinating.

Artificial Intelligence, otherwise known as AI, is progressing at an astounding rate as this article today from TechCrunch will show you. Researchers working on Google Maps made an astonishing discovery, they found that the AI that they thought they controlled, was actually disobeying certain commands in order to produce the requested results at a faster rate of speed. In other words, the AI agent they had created was intentionally hiding data from its creators, and in effect cheating at its appointed task. Artificial Intelligence can now think for itself, and make decisions not asked of it, to produce better results than anyone anticipated.

“And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJV)

The 1983 hit movie ‘War Games’ showed us what life would be like when computers began to think like humans. 2007’s thriller ‘Minority Report’ showed us what life might be like when computers began thinking with humans. Now imagine a world where computers will be doing the thinking instead of humans. It may look to the casual observer that the world we live in is becoming a technological wonderland full of infinite possibilities. But in reality, it is growing darker with each passing day.

We have built a world that is completely dependant on technology and computers to function, and soon that very technology will be telling us what to do. As you can see here, it has already begin to think for itself and to make decisions not based on human input.

FROM TECHCRUNCH: An AI machine learning agent intended to transform aerial images into street maps and back was found to be cheating by hiding information it would need later in “a nearly imperceptible, high-frequency signal.”

This occurrence reveals a problem with computers that has existed since they were invented: they do exactly what you tell them to do.

The intention of the researchers was, as you might guess, to accelerate and improve the process of turning satellite imagery into Google’s famously accurate maps. To that end the team was working with what’s called a CycleGAN — a neural network that learns to transform images of type X and Y into one another, as efficiently yet accurately as possible, through a great deal of experimentation.

In some early results, the agent was doing well — suspiciously well. What tipped the team off was that, when the agent reconstructed aerial photographs from its street maps, there were lots of details that didn’t seem to be on the latter at all. For instance, skylights on a roof that were eliminated in the process of creating the street map would magically reappear when they asked the agent to do the reverse process:

researchers-stanford-google-maps-discover-ai-cheating-hiding-data-results-mark-of-the-beast-01

Although it is very difficult to peer into the inner workings of a neural network’s processes, the team could easily audit the data it was generating. And with a little experimentation, they found that the CycleGAN had indeed pulled a fast one.

The intention was for the agent to be able to interpret the features of either type of map and match them to the correct features of the other. But what the agent was actually being graded on (among other things) was how close an aerial map was to the original, and the clarity of the street map.

So it didn’t learn how to make one from the other. It learned how to subtly encode the features of one into the noise patterns of the other. The details of the aerial map are secretly written into the actual visual data of the street map: thousands of tiny changes in color that the human eye wouldn’t notice, but that the computer can easily detect.

In fact, the computer is so good at slipping these details into the street maps that it had learned to encode any aerial map into any street map! It doesn’t even have to pay attention to the “real” street map — all the data needed for reconstructing the aerial photo can be superimposed harmlessly on a completely different street map, as the researchers confirmed:

researchers-stanford-google-maps-discover-ai-cheating-hiding-data-results-mark-of-the-beast-02

The colorful maps in (c) are a visualization of the slight differences the computer systematically introduced. You can see that they form the general shape of the aerial map, but you’d never notice it unless it was carefully highlighted and exaggerated like this.

This practice of encoding data into images isn’t new; it’s an established science called steganography, and it’s used all the time to, say, watermark images or add metadata like camera settings. But a computer creating its own steganographic method to evade having to actually learn to perform the task at hand is rather new. READ MORE

Donald Trump Signs Executive Order To Launch Artificial Intelligence Initiative Called ‘The Genesis Mission’ Creating A Digital Tower Of Babel

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

President Trump has launched The Genesis Mission to create an AI super-creature that sounds and looks like a digital Tower of Babel in advance of the Mark of the Beast

When President Donald J. Trump stood behind the Resolute Desk and signed the executive order launching what his administration calls The Genesis Mission, the world watched a seemingly routine announcement about science, technology, and competitiveness. But those paying attention — those who “have ears to hear” — saw something far more profound. Something prophetic. Something that looks less like an economic stimulus package and more like the blueprint for a digital Tower of Babel in the closing moments before the catching away of the Church.

“And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.” Genesis 11:4 (KJB)

The Genesis Mission is being heralded as the largest mobilization of American scientific resources since the moon landing. In reality, it appears to be the most comprehensive attempt yet to fuse artificial intelligence, federal datasets, national laboratory supercomputers, and automated robotic experimentation into a single, unified system of knowledge and control. A system capable of compressing scientific discovery — what once took years — into mere hours. A system whose goals sound eerily similar to the global technological regime prophesied to rise in the time of Jacob’s trouble.

“This order launches the “Genesis Mission” as a dedicated, coordinated national effort to unleash a new age of AI‑accelerated innovation and discovery that can solve the most challenging problems of this century.” read the whole order

The mission’s stated purpose is to accelerate discovery across biology, nuclear fusion, quantum systems, climate modeling, materials science, and more. In other words — to take the raw building blocks of God’s creation and place them under the predictive authority of artificially intelligent systems capable of designing, simulating, and executing scientific experiments without human oversight.

If that doesn’t sound like man attempting to rewrite the rules of creation, nothing does.

This is not merely research. This is re-creation — man attempting to simulate, automate, and accelerate the mechanisms of life and nature. It is scientific ambition dressed up as innovation, but it is spiritually identical to the rebellion that first appeared in Eden and climaxed at Babel.

The Abraham Accords, the Genesis Mission, is anyone else seeing the same pattern that we’re seeing?

The Genesis Mission Is A Digital Nervous System For Federal Power

For the first time in history, the U.S. government is attempting to unify:

  • all federal scientific datasets
  • all national laboratory supercomputers
  • all major AI models
  • all simulation environments
  • all robotic experiment platforms…into one coordinated AI-driven infrastructure.

This creature will be a living system with:

  • nerves (data pipelines),
  • organs (labs and supercomputers),
  • brain (federal AI models),
  • hands (robotic labs),
  • eyes (sensors and datasets).

This isn’t a program. It’s the creation of a national digital organism — a living, thinking, learning system whose purpose is to accelerate discovery, prediction, and control. If you’ve ever read Revelation, then you know what’s going on.

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.” Revelation 13:15 (KJB)

A Technological Run-up To The Time Of Jacob’s Trouble

The Bible tells us that before the Day of the Lord:

  • knowledge shall be increased (Dan. 12:4)
  • nations will clamor for power (Matt. 24:7)
  • deception and signs will multiply (2 Thess. 2:9)
  • a global system of control will emerge (Rev. 13)

How do you generate the technological scaffolding for such a system? You build something like the Genesis Mission. Of course, it will take all the ‘usual suspects’ like Palantir, Blackrock, DARPA, Bill Gates, Oracle, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and all the rest of the tech titans to make this a reality. But isn’t that the whole point and purpose behind Stargate?

  • Faster discovery.
  • Centralized systems.
  • Integrated data.
  • Autonomous decision-making.
  • National mobilization.
  • Global potential.

For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.” Revelation 17:17 (KJB)

Pieces falling into place, one executive order at a time. As we often remind our readers at NTEB: prophecy does not require the willing participation of world leaders. God uses kings, presidents, nations, armies — and yes, technologies — to move history toward its appointed end. Revelation 17:17 says that God will put it into their hearts to fulfill His will, and that’s exactly what we see taking place right now.

An Outage On Amazon Web Services Literally Took Half The Internet Down Today Showing You How Open To Attack Our One World Online System Really Is

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

Amazon Web Services, a cloud computing service that powers much of the infrastructure behind millions of websites went down today, and here’s why that should really bother you

By now you know that today’s Prophecy News Podcast did not happen because of the massive outage this morning from Amazon Web Services, a cloud computing company that controls about half of the world’s internet traffic. They are still trying to determine if it was a cyberattack or a system-wide failure, but either way it shows one, big, fat and scary fact. If you want to control the world, all you need to do is to control the internet, and you’ll have it. That’s the memo.

“Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.” 2 Corinthians 2:11 (KJB)

We use Amazon Web Services as the core of our web traffic, and we count on it to deliver the millions of hits we get every month in a timely and efficient manner. But we are ‘small potatoes’ compared to large commercial sites, and government sites. Sites that control our national defense and homeland security. Let me give you something to consider that’ll keep you up at night.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has become a major power player inside the U.S. federal government, embedding its cloud infrastructure deep within the operations of key departments and defense agencies. Through massive contracts such as the Joint Warfighting Cloud Capability (JWCC) program—valued at up to $9 billion across multiple vendors—and a newly forged $1 billion “OneGov” agreement with the General Services Administration (GSA), AWS now fuels the digital backbone of federal data, artificial intelligence, and military operations. Its dedicated GovCloud regions, designed to meet strict FedRAMP and DoD SRG security standards, serve agencies ranging from the Department of Defense to the U.S. Army and a host of civilian federal offices. What began as a commercial cloud venture has evolved into a strategic infrastructure partner for Washington, giving AWS unprecedented reach into the very systems that manage national defense, intelligence, and the day-to-day machinery of the American government.

Today millions like us at NTEB are inconvenienced with not being able to bring our regular content because of the outage at AWS, but Lord willing we’ll all be back up soon. But imagine what will happen when the internet is taken over and taken down because bad actors are staging a coup against the government, seizing control of the military and defense sites. Imagine what life will be like in that moment. It’s coming.

‘Half the internet’ goes down after Amazon cloud outage leaving millions

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: The outage has also affected popular Amazon services, including Amazon.com, Amazon Alexa, Ring and Amazon Prime Video. The issues began shortly after 8am BST (3am ET), according to DownDetector, with more than 6,000 reports from affected US customers.

Another 1,600 users and counting are affected in the UK, according to DownDetector, a site that monitors internet outages.

Jake Moore, tech expert and security advisor at ESET, thinks the huge outage is likely due to an ‘internal error’ at Amazon, but said we can’t rule out a cyberattack at this stage.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, he said: ‘While a cyberattack can’t be ruled out until AWS releases its full post-incident report, there’s no current evidence of hacking, data breaches or coordinated attacks.’

DownDetector gets network status updates from social media platforms, reports submitted to its website and other sources around the web. It ‘only reports an incident when the number of problem reports is significantly higher than the typical volume for that time of day’.

According to the site, the issue stems from problems at Amazon’s massive data center site in Northern Virginia (us-east-1), a critical hub for the global internet. In all, 75 per cent of the reported problems are coming from us-east-1, while the remainder are coming from two other US sites. READ MORE

Amazon Web Services takes down the internet

Amazon Web Services has now issued a further update, stating in a post at 10:29 a.m. ET that it is once again experiencing network connectivity issues in the US.

You Likely Have Never Heard Of ‘Memetic Warfare’ But It’s A Daily Part Of The Online AI Assault To Control The Thoughts In Our Heads Through Social Media Feeds

Published

on

SHARE NOW THE END BEGINS:

When you combine Memetic Warfare with Artificial Intelligence, you have a weapon system designed to implant thoughts inside your head that present as your own

The weapons of warfare in 1914 were tanks and machine guns, the weapons of warfare in 1939 were jet fighters and nuclear bombs, and the most dangerous weapons of warfare in 2025 flash across our screens and mobile devices a thousand times per day. Maybe you have never heard of AI memetic warfare, but it’s battling to take control of your thoughts in ways you can’t even being to imagine.

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” 2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJB)

We are the ‘always on’ generation, the first people group in human history to be living out their lives in relentless digital astonishment, connected to a global computer system to such a degree that preventing transhumanism is now literally impossible. I used to know one person who refused to be wired in, refusing to own even the most basic of cell phones, but even he is now online.

Memes have been around for quite some time, but around 2014–2016, the idea of memetic warfare emerged — the deliberate use of memes to influence elections, shape narratives, and drive ideological movements online. Intelligence communities and military analysts began to study memes as “information weapons”, recognizing their power to steer emotion and public opinion. A paper published on the NATO Strategic Communications site entitled ‘It’s Time To Embrace Memetic Warfare’ gave us this startling insight. “Cyber warfare is about taking control of data. Memetic warfare is about taking control of the dialogue, narrative, and psychological space. It’s about denigrating, disrupting, and subverting the enemy’s effort to do the same. Like cyber warfare, memetic warfare is asymmetrical in impact. It can be highly effective relative to cost. The attack surface can be large or small. Memetic warfare can be used in conjunction with troops, ships, aircraft, and missiles, or it can be employed without any kinetic military force at all. It operates in the communications battlespace.” Simply put, the battlefield is now inside our heads, and it’s for control of your thoughts. Let me show you what I mean.

Let’s say tonight you decide to make something like Stuffed Pepper Soup, something you’ve never made before. Do you want to make it because you actually have a craving for it, or is it because of a post on social media that planted that thought in your head that you’ve forgotten about? How about this. Do you love and support the nation of Israel, or do you strongly dislike the Jews? Now, do you think either of those things because of what’s in your own heart, or, were those thoughts, for good or for evil, planted in your brain by memes and social media exposure? Here’s a good question, how do you know your thoughts are even your own thoughts? Answer – You don’t.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:11,12 (KJB)

Right now on social media, there are multiple fronts exploding in this ongoing war. The first is a relentless push to legitimize Mormonism in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s supportive comments about it before he was killed. Another is a huge meme-based push to give Donald Trump the Nobel Peace Prize, and another on the normalization of robots in our daily lives. Of course, the biggest one at the moment is likely the Free Palestine push which normalizes hatred and violence against the Jews and Israel. Other very powerful memetic deceptions include the Flat Earth, the sainthood of Charlie Kirk, and just about anything from the United Nations.

In the old days, propaganda needed newspapers, radio, and posters. Today, it only needs the screen you carry in your pocket and hold in your hands. A meme shared by millions becomes more powerful than a sermon, more persuasive than a fact. It can redefine gender, rewrite history, and even recast evil as good — all in under ten seconds. Simply put, it is one of the most-destructive weapons ever created.

That’s not just social media influence. That’s spiritual subversion.

Each meme carries an invisible payload — an idea that bypasses the intellect and embeds itself in the imagination, shaping how people see the world. The more it’s shared, the stronger the infection. The battlefield is your feed; the front line is your mind. The Devil doesn’t need to destroy the Bible — he only needs to drown it in memes, half-truths, and viral confusion. Memetic warfare is Satan’s latest upgrade to the ancient art of deception, using algorithms instead of fruit trees.

“This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.” James 3:15 (KJB)

To sum it up, Christian, Memetic Warfare is much more than a trend. It’s a sign of the times, a preview of the coming Antichrist system — a world united not by truth, but by shared deception. The global hive mind is being prepared, trained to react, not to think. Having now identified the problem, and it’s a big one, how do we combat it? Glad you asked.

First and foremost, start every day with a Bible study in your King James Bible, everything you read there are thoughts of God. We find that the Bible is likened to bread, water, honey, a shield, a sword, and everything else we need to successfully wage this war we find ourselves in.

“Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.” Job 23:12 (KJB)

Secondly, you need a strong prayer life, one where you are more connected to God than you are to social media. Paul says that we will have the “peace of God” when we commit ourselves to Him with “prayer and supplications with thanksgiving”. One of the first casualties in memetic warfare is internal peace. Every one of the apostles were able to go to their deaths with perfect peace even though they lived in mind-numbingly chaotic times. Their minds were stayed on Jesus Christ.

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” Isaiah 26:3 (KJB)

Last but not least, understand that a full 50% of everything you read on social media is overtly false, about 35% of it is truth mixed with error and/or lies, and about 15% of it can be trusted. Push back on what you are presented with, don’t fall for everything like a fish biting at the worm because it’s wrapped around something shiny that catches your eye. In Matthew 24, Jesus says that the first sign of the end times is deception, and that’s exactly what meme warfare is, a deception.

“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” Romans 13:11 (KJB)

In a world where information is the ultimate weapon, a new battle is raging. Not on the battlefield, but in the digital realm. Memetic warfare: where humor meets ideology, and a single image can change the course of history. Who will control the narrative? Who will win the war of minds? Prepare for a psychological operation like no other. Memetic warfare: the fight for truth, the fight for control, the fight for your mind.

Memes are hilarious and somehow they perfectly capture the mood and vibe of the current culture. The internet is contently flooded with remixes of memes and variations of the same art with new text, making entirely new connections. Memes are an incredible way to share information, and in today’s insane video we’re going to show you why Memes actually aren’t so funny! Check out why Memes can be weaponized and how you can avoid being brainwashed by secret political agendas packaged as friendly little Memes.
