Good.
All this bill would have done is given OpenAI/Anthropic and such an effective monopoly by destroying the open model community. I think fediverse vs. good social media is a good analogy, and this would have effectively sniped the Fediverse because it’s “too dangerous” without actually being specific on how to deal with that.
Newsom on Sunday instead announced that the state will partner with several industry experts, including AI pioneer Fei-Fei Li, to develop guardrails around powerful AI models. Li opposed the AI safety proposal.
That’s reassuring—Li is one of the best-qualified people for the role, and she isn’t in the pocket of any of the major players.
Nancy Pelosi, argued that the bill would “kill California tech” and stifle innovation.
As long as the critics need nothing better than such stupid, short-sighted arguments, nobody will ever be safe.
Man, fuck Gavin Newsome. That fucker has to go
He might be going to the White House in the future.
Trying to do the same thing in EU I guess. It’s funny how the tech giants are mad at it and not releasing their latest data pumps in EU. It’s like cocaine gangs threatening us to not sell in our countries if we don’t change the laws. No, thanks.
Meta: I’ve noticed a lot of VOA links on Lemmy lately, and I’d like to understand why. As I understand it, VOA is essentially a national propaganda news organization targeting an international audience (similar to RT). Why is that a good source for article sharing? Especially in the case of the article at hand, which is just a VOA republication of an Associated Press piece that could have been linked originally.
Great, now we’ll have separate “california-model” ai-models, like cars.
Why? He vetoed it.
People don’t read. They see California and get all upset because they hate anything remotely progressive, and just assume all the steers left for Texas.
And now lots of cars use the same standard as California which can be registered in California, what’s your point?

How exactly do LLMs do that? If you’ve given an LLM’s pseudorandom output control over your electrical grid, no regulation will mitigate your stupidity.

Could he understand the halting problem? I doubt he does, but the legislators evidently don’t either

If you hook an LLM up as an interface replacement for a manual/analog Power Plant interface and start asking the translator to intuit decisions based on fuzzy inputs, you can create a cascade of errors that result in grid failure.
This rule would prevent a business or public regulator from doing such a thing without proving out safeguards.
And the governor vetoed it.

I think it’s more about asking it the steps to create a bomb or how to disrupt the grid, for example, where to cut the major edges.

That sounds like a self-correcting issue right there
