This entire SETA program is built entirely by AI as an experiment by The Black Vault. Below this opening intro in blue text that you are reading, there are no edits to what AI produced for this. It chose its own name, designed its own logo, wrote its own mission statement, developed a plan on what it wanted to do overall, and mocked up numerous aspects of the program. It also wrote its own manual, investigator’s handbook, and wanted to even develop a testing program with tests and answer keys, build an AI chat bot, and offer tools (all open…
