AI Agents Are Thirsty for Power

https://www.wired.com/story/ai-agents-are-thirsty-for-power/

Saturday, September 12, 2026

September_12 has its own violent history of various occurrences and events. The torture and murder of Steve_Biko, resulting with his death on 9-12 is just as horrific and tragic if it was on any day of the year.

https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/history/steve-biko

https://www.npr.org/2025/09/12/nx-s1-5539024/south-africa-reopens-inquest-death-steve-biko

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/00450610109410807

Had Stephen Biko died on September_11, would his day of death become obscured or enhanced by what happened in September_2001? The fact is that people tragically and naturally die every day. Its just that September_11, 9/11, 9-11 or the 11th of September, has become synonymous with conflict, death and destruction through the ages.

https://www.nytimes.com/1977/10/09/archives/south-africa-says-biko-was-part-of-terrorist-threat-newspaper-is.html

"The verdict of history is that the police security branch, not Biko and his colleagues, were the terrorists." https://www.anfasa.org.za/the-testimony-of-steve-biko-and-no-fears-expressed-quotes-from-steve-biko

Peter Gabriel - Biko https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luVpsM3YAgw

https://www.americanrhetoric.com/MovieSpeeches/moviespeechcryfreedomcourtroomspeech.htm

Steve Biko: The common factor with these people is that they have selflessly pushed forward the struggle of the black man.

State Prosecutor: So, your answer to this so-called "naked terrorism" is to provoke violence in the black community.

Steve Biko: No, our movement seeks to avoid violence.

State Prosecutor: But your own words call for direct confrontation!

Steve Biko: That's right. We demand confrontation.

State Prosecutor: Isn't that a demand for violence?

Steve Biko: Well, you and I are now in confrontation but I see no violence.

Forty-nine years after Steve Biko was killed...

the reopened inquest exposes not only the brutality of apartheid but also democratic South Africa's failure to deliver justice and material liberation to the Black majority https://mg.co.za/thought-leader/2026-09-10-biko-and-the-undone-liberation-of-blacks/

https://www.legendary-biographies.com/volumes/097-room-619.html

There is a lot of death and destruction associated with September 11 throughout history.

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/00450610109410807

Were some people trying to beat Stephen Biko so hard that he would symbolically die on 9-11? The attackers and abusers of their authority probably didn't fully understand the death and destruction significance with the #911, or 9/11.

https://www.nytimes.com/1977/10/09/archives/south-africa-says-biko-was-part-of-terrorist-threat-newspaper-is.html

"On 11 September 1977, police loaded him in the back of a Land Rover, naked and restrained in manacles, and began the 1100 km drive to Pretoria to take him to a prison with hospital facilities. He was nearly dead owing to the previous injuries. He died shortly after arrival at the Pretoria prison, on 12 September." https://fireflyafrica.co.za/steve-bikos-cell-at-walmer-police-station/

Steve Biko being found dead on 9-12, or any other day of the year is still such a tragic loss.

These knives used as weapons aren't just a danger to the public, but to police. NYPD gave her the opportunity to drop the knives, she refused and threatened instead, so police had to drop her.

Woman killed a man in a random Times Square stabbing

https://abc7ny.com/post/times-square-shooting-person-shot-police/19771286/

An aggressive person with 2 knives could hardly take over Times Square.

However, had this armed attacker not been stopped by police, they could have continued on with their stabbing rampage.

The Real Reason Veritasium Sold His Channel

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpQZLCel_kg

The Future of Veritasium https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piHGnG4LsmQ

Whenever someone is partially bought out, its important that they retain as much creative control as possible. Things seemed to have worked out well for Veritasium, sort of.

How Private Equity Turns Your Favorite Channels Into Slop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoibAbdQf58

In contrast to Veritasium, George_Lucas sold his main business, resulting in very little control over the Star-Wars franchise. That's the tradeoff when your company is sold off and you become much less of a creative force as to how things are done.
