Comment on White House unveils sweeping plan to “win” global AI race through deregulation
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 days agoThey’re deregulating AI but constraining the production of cheap green energy.
A bit like saying you’re going to grow the NFL by ditching all the penalty rules, then mandating “Whites Only” teams in public high schools.
The investments that grow the economy are being strangled while the investments that drastically increase the risk of operation are being unleashed.

The LinkedIn post about the AI deregulation announcement was a who’s who of assholes bleating about how great it would be; CEOs, COOs, from Open AI, Duke Energy, Fascists Anonymous.

The joke of Roko’s Basilisk is that we really do have a group of people who seem to subscribe to it, often with dogmatic religiosity.
I can’t help but wonder if these spoiled rotten dipshits have fully turned their brains over to the bot-farms and LLMs and are now living out the fantasy of a Killer Robot From The Future dangling heaven and hell over their heads until they build this impossible machine.

Most of them are accelerationists. They want the world to collapse, because they want to be kings of their own little nation states and they all think that they’re going to come out ahead simply because they have money and because “if they’ve been so successful up until now with pesky governments just imagine what will happen without them.”
