This is from 2 months ago but I hadn’t seen it any politics forums.

    Many of the measures in this EO seem like good things and are directed properly at agencies with areas of responsibility being impacted by AI. Some are kind of borderline on if it would hold up – I don’t know if adding additional requirements for research funding is necessarily something the executive branch can do, unless Congress delegated that authority entirely. In some areas it’s only calling on Congress to act.

    The first part is using the Defense Production Act, though, and that seems very suspect.

    You haven’t seen it because there’s nothing to do with A.I, it’s just a rant from old people thinking their opinion matters and thinks these rules work. They don’t work and Google, Facebook and OpenAI don’t care.

    This is just a bunch of vague bullshit that doesn’t really do anything and doesn’t even touch on the most important problems. Also demonstrates a lack of knowledge about what this newfangled thing even IS.

    At least it’s completely on brand for Mr Malarkey and the other out of touch rich people controlling the country 😮‍💨
