one small win for local AI, one giant loss for the school system (and others).
Huge loss for the environment, big win for AI stocks!
To be clear, the bill prevents regulation. It’s not a regulatory ban, it is a ban on regulation.
"automated decision systems "
“IF X THEN Y” satisfies this description.
Soooo basically just take the handbrake off practically every chunk of software ever written then?
Did chatgpt propose this?
The US is a fucking joke. Completely captured by corporate greed. It’s not a democracy and hasn’t been for a long time.
Plutocracy!
May the highest bidder win.
I’d say it’s more of a kakistocracy right now.
A bit of both.
We know! You don’t have to rub it in…😞
Bundling issues together like this should not be allowed. It’s done by everyone, and usually done to hold the actual good parts hostage. Oh you want to prevent asbestos from being used because it’s killing people? Well the only way you get that is by also allowing employers to hire 4 year olds.
tbf, I don’t know how feasible it is to remove asbestos without employing 4 year olds.
“no State or political subdivision thereof may enforce any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence systems, or automated decision systems during the 10 year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act.”
Someones taking money for this.
Whatever happened to states rights?
Fascists only use “rights” for themselves, and then they will rub it into your face that they can do something you can’t…
They ditched that as soon as they won the election
We didn’t just not do what all those movies/books warned us to, we made it illegal to take any precautions whatsoever.
Such a stupid fucking timeline.
The bill that makes it illegal for precautions is snuck inside megabill with 100 other bad provisions so no debate occurs on it.
FYI, the US empire is evil. Like media, AI must be used to protect the Empire’s evil.
I simply don’t understand how “vote to fund thing A” gets conflated with “also pass ultra-evil rule B”. How hard is it to vote on each issue separately and keep shit like this isolated from unrelated legislation?
The process itself must serve evil. As a process, single issue bills permit a clear stand on good/evil with debate on the issue to convince/justify vote. Multi issue bills permit a horse trade of my evil interests to be included for your evil interest to also be included.
It can backfire though. Too big a deal can get some to leave the corruption consensus over 1 provision included. Everyone is given more power to grandstand against evil.
Does this not directly, nakedly violate the sovereignty clause?
If only they protected my rights like they protect the rights of corporations.
That would be extremely out of character for the GOP, why would you even expect that from them?
Won’t any think of the shareholders? They suffer too. -s
Welp, pack it up kids, this one’s cooked
Why would they need money? Automating systems removes interpersonal trust and facilitates 1984-esque media and data control. Deregulation means they can use it as a handwavy excuse for a lot of major things, and also impact the information those systems give you.

“But muh sTaTeS rIgHtS!”
No Republican has ever given two shits about state rights, personal rights or even human rights in general. They never stop screeching about it but they don’t give a shit.
They only care about their own pockets, the end.
Unless it’s a blue state!
Could we just…call everything AI then and it cant be regulated. Cause that would be hilarious.
Someone needs to spin up an AI that continuously generates pictures that annoy Donald Trump and posts them to all social media, it should actively learn what makes him and his supporters feel the saddest and optimise for those attributes.
Deepseek biding their time
its hilarious how this party would tought state rights. only rights for things they can’t currently get themselves at the federal level at any particular time.
the fuckening is upon us, ladies and gentlemen
Fine, I won’t complain when Yudkowski’s followers take matters into their own hands.
Son of a bitch!
If you want to stay on the bleeding edge you’ve got to be a reversal of Europe, which means allowing innovation and competition. Hence why VT is nearly 70% US.
