Comment on GOP sneaks decade-long AI regulation ban into spending bill - Ars Technica
humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 day agoThe 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?

Congress is hopelessly broken, gridlocked and unable to pass policy on its own merit. That’s how we end up with quadrillion page omnibus bills every year. It’s a failed institution, and it’s been this way since at least Reagan.

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.
