It's very hard for them to know how to react and what to do.
It's another side effect of the fact that we've given up the information space to algorithms that are being written, you know, outside of the places where they're being used.
So I consider it my role to keep you continually informed about Ukraine, even though you don't.
So fire away.
Well, I live in Poland part of the time, so it's not that far for me to get there.
I try and get there periodically.
Anyway, I was there, I guess, about 10 days ago, two weeks ago.
And the story in Ukraine is actually really interesting now because we have hit another one of these turning points.
where the technological advantage is now once again on the Ukrainian side.
And I think what's important, I think most people don't really understand this yet, that there are different dimensions of the war.
One of them is the front line itself.
And the front line is now this 20 or 25 mile wide zone.
which is totally transparent.
So everything that happens inside that zone can be seen by Ukrainian and other reconnaissance drones.
And every time the Russians enter that zone with a soldier or a tank or a truck or anything else, it is immediately identified and the Ukrainians can hit it.
When you talk about a stalemate, the stalemate doesn't mean that nothing is happening.
What's happening is that there are these waves of Russian attacks and the Ukrainians keep hitting them.
And you have this very, very high Russian casualty rates now, sometimes as many as a thousand people a day that's killed and wounded.
It can be 1,000 a day.
Much lower on the Ukrainian side because their war is increasingly automated.
