      Hell is too kind and polite for the timeline we live in. We’ll probably wash up in superhell or something.

    I wonder if this “de-regulation” will allow or prevent AI videos of trump wandering naked through the desert?

    And then Trump releases an EO saying that AI systems can’t be “woke” and must toe the party line on all things. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/07/preventing-woke-ai-in-the-federal-government/

        So what you’re saying is only the right kind of people should be allowed to vote?

        I do think though that there should be some sort of basic test to prove that you actually understand the various policies an administration is pushing, not at a deep level but just the most basic surface level that you could get from a 10-minute Google search or by watching a single video. Just prove that you actually know what you’re voting for because otherwise why even vote?

      It can be censored for not giving sufficiently MAGAfied answers or acknowledging the existence of things fascists want memory-holed.

      It can’t be sued for devouring, assimilating and plagiarizing all copyrighted media ever created.

      Two very different sorts of regulation.

        Well you’d have to strip out most of the history books then, oh and anything to do with social science, also get rid of all of the biology textbooks because they explain where babies come from and conservatives don’t like that sort of thing.

        Basically it’s just going to be sports statistics and gun manuals. There probably isn’t enough information in there to build an AI, as you need quite a broad base of input for it to work.

    The race to develop uncontrollable superintelligent processes for which the goal of maintaining Earth’s biosphere is a competitive disadvantage? No humans win this race.
