Another terror attack was just reported: “At least 15 individuals have been killed and dozens injured following a shooting incident at a Hanukkah celebration in Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia on Sunday evening. Authorities have classified the event as a terror attack, with reports indicating that the two gunmen specifically targeted attendees celebrating the Jewish holiday. Witnesses described a chaotic scene as the gunmen ushered non-celebrants aside before opening fire. Emergency services reported at least 29 injuries, and one of the attackers was shot while the other was apprehended. Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon confirmed the discovery of several improvised explosive devices in a nearby vehicle, prompting the involvement of bomb disposal units. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the attack, emphasizing its targeting of Jewish Australians and asserting that it represents an attack on all Australians. He convened a meeting with national security officials to address the incident. U.S. reactions included a statement from President Donald Trump, who reassured Hanukkah celebrants of their safety, and a condemnation from U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who highlighted the need to combat antisemitism. Videos from the scene captured the panic among beachgoers and the heroic actions of a bystander who intervened to disarm one of the gunmen. This act of bravery was praised by New South Wales Premier Chris Minns, who described the individual as a hero. The shooting occurred against a backdrop of rising antisemitic incidents in Australia, particularly following the onset of the Israel-Gaza conflict in October 2023. The Executive Council of Australian Jewry reported a significant increase in antisemitic attacks, raising alarms within both the Jewish community and broader Australian society.” It was subsequently reported that the shooters were father and son. What were the causes of this event? What is most important for us to know?

Propaganda has always been a huge problem, but may be an even bigger issue for AI. China and the Chinese Communist Party spend more money and effort, and engage more of its citizens to spread blatantly false propaganda, than perhaps the rest of the world combined. To such an extent that it felt the need to create its very own global social media platform, TikTok. The Trump administration has even proposed banning TikTok altogether because of the nefarious role the platform plays in both gathering intelligence and spreading propaganda. Some of the lies people are starting to believe about China, that it has no crime, that its infrastructure is some of the most advanced and safest in the world, that there are no homeless people in China, that everyone there has a meaningful and lucrative job, that they are the healthiest and happiest people on the planet, and on and on. When, in fact, the exact opposite is more often than not the case. And for every good lie they tell about themselves, they tell an equally bad one about America and Europe. The problem is, they are so prolific and extreme with this propaganda that the Chinese people themselves believe none of it (about themselves, anyway), and Americans and Europeans (especially young ones) are beginning to believe all of it. With AI having no way to filter this for truth or falsity other than volume, there appears to be a genuine danger of AI itself presenting this propaganda as gospel truth, that China is great and America and Europe are evil. What is Creator’s perspective?
