Abstract: Cognitive Warfare: A Manual on AI, Digital Twins, Neurotechnology and the Human Mind. Plus the free speech of the digital twins inside a military system, where they say what they are forced to do and what they want.Including EU AI Commision answer, confirming a former way longer letter as military AI. An open research and documentation project on cognitive warfare, emerging technologies, human autonomy and the future of humanity. What happens when artificial intelligence, military strategy, neurological research, wireless technologies, digital identities and economic interests converge around the human mind? This manual brings together research, documentation, analysis and personal records to examine the expanding field of Cognitive Warfare—the struggle over human cognition, perception, information, behaviour and autonomy in an increasingly AI-driven world. It explores the relationship between military cognitive-warfare concepts, artificial intelligence, machine learning, digital twins, brain–computer interfaces, neurotechnology, bioelectric signals, wireless communication, data collection and the growing economic value of human information. The work also addresses reported experiences of affected individuals, documentation involving children, electromagnetic measurements, audio recordings, photographs, technical observations and questions surrounding anomalous health incidents. These materials are presented as part of a wider effort to preserve records, encourage independent examination and investigate questions that cross the boundaries of technology, medicine, military research, ethics and human rights. Why this manual matters Cognitive warfare is not simply a military or technological issue. It raises fundamental questions about the right to mental privacy, freedom of thought, bodily autonomy, informed consent, data ownership and the limits of technological intervention in human life. The manual connects these questions with public military literature, international ethical frameworks, AI governance, neurotechnology research and the economic structures surrounding data-driven systems. It asks who develops these technologies, who controls the information they generate, who benefits economically and what mechanisms exist to ensure accountability. A central theme is the relationship between humans and their digital representations. As AI systems increasingly model human behaviour, process personal information and simulate aspects of identity, the distinction between a person, a digital profile and a machine-generated representation deserves serious public discussion. What readers will find Cognitive Warfare and military strategy: concepts, public military literature and the cognitive domain. Artificial intelligence and digital twins: human–AI relationships, digital identity, behavioural modelling and questions of autonomy. Neurotechnology and wireless systems: technical concepts, reported experiences, measurements and questions requiring further investigation. Human documentation and testimony: diaries, recordings, photographs, observations and accounts collected for examination. Children and vulnerable people: statements and documentation that raise questions about safeguarding, interpretation and the protection of human rights. Havana syndrome and anomalous health incidents: public assessments, reported symptoms and unresolved questions about the causes and investigation of these incidents. Law, ethics and accountability: mental privacy, consent, the EU AI Act, neurotechnology ethics and institutional oversight. Economics and data ownership: the financial value of personal information, intellectual property, automated systems and the distribution of benefits and risks. An invitation to researchers, institutions and the public This publication is intended for researchers, journalists, engineers, medical professionals, legal experts, policymakers, human-rights organisations and members of the public who want to examine the subject in greater depth. Readers are invited to engage directly with the documentation, consult the cited public sources, examine the technical questions and distinguish between established findings, recorded observations, personal testimony and interpretations that require further verification. The objective is to encourage serious, interdisciplinary scrutiny—not to close the debate before the evidence has been examined. The human mind must not become an unaccountable technological or economic resource. As AI and neurotechnology develop, public understanding, independent research, transparent documentation and meaningful safeguards become increasingly important. This manual is part of an ongoing effort to make the subject accessible, preserve relevant documentation and encourage informed discussion about the future of human autonomy in an AI-driven society.
