[spam] could an AI reverse a one-time pad?

[Karl]

1. learn about the world enough to predict it, like the creepy
marketing ais do sometimes.
2. predict some of the message text, maybe from the behavior of
somebody who spied on it
3. deduce part of the one-time pad from the message text, easy-peasy
4. one-time pads are made by random processes.  so now you've gotta
predict the random number generator.  this probably means figuring out
what shadowy group hacked it.
5. spew out the magic!

I'd separate 4 and 1 thru 3 into two separate problems and solve them
separately.

The groups figuring out that the marketing AIs are controlling people
can discover that that implies that any random old AI can hack a
computer and influence a random number generation process to solve #4
and radically change our universe.

Meanwhile, normal people can use a non-cryptographic random number
generator to show the whole system works and frighten people.
