What if one day, your car made a decision for you… and got it wrong?

A fictional trial once tried to answer a question that no longer feels like fiction: can we put an artificial intelligence on trial like we would a human being?

Behind this courtroom drama lies a deeper dilemma about our digital future: who’s to blame when a machine causes a disaster, but no one truly understands how or why?

Still think the infamous “red button” would save you?

Think again.

_What if you could whisper into an AI’s ear, without anyone noticing?_

Some researchers did exactly that. Not in a novel, but on arXiv, one of the most respected scientific platforms. By inserting invisible messages into their papers, they discreetly influenced the judgment—not of human readers, but of the AI systems reviewing the submissions.

White text on a white background. Microscopic font size. Hidden instructions.
The reader sees nothing. The AI, however, obeys.

This isn’t just a clever technical trick. It’s a sign of the times.

Because in a world where AIs help us read, choose, and decide—what happens when the AI itself is being manipulated, without our knowledge?
And even more unsettling: what’s left of our free will, if even the information we read has already been preformatted… for the machine that filters our perception?

👉 This article explores a new kind of manipulation. Subtle. Sneaky. Invisible. Yet remarkably effective.

Three centuries ago, a weaver fled in a sack of wool. Today, we open the doors of our lives wide to those who want to weave in our place.

In 1733, the flying shuttle disrupted the world of craftsmanship. In 2025, it’s artificial intelligence that is reshaping our gestures, our professions, our identities.
But the real rupture might not be what we think. It’s no longer just our skills we delegate. It’s the very taste for thinking.

And this time, there may be no way back.

In 1733, we burned the machines. In 2025, we applaud them. But in both cases, it’s the human that gets sacrificed.

👉 Read on if you, too, feel that something essential is starting to melt away.
