Meanwhile AI is in such a state that if a Nazi sneezes in its general direction it becomes Mecha-Hitler

You mean the Nazi who owns it and was messing with its settings for months before it did that? That same Nazi?
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 months ago
And Mecha-Hitler still keeps pumping out re-writes of liberal news articles and history textbooks, which means it is STILL too woke for their tastes.
CheeseNoodle@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The explanation I saw for this is that fascist rhetoric changes every 5 minutes so AI just can’t keep up with it.
MehBlah@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Deregulation just for AI companies. Its still theft if a individual does it.
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 months ago
They’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 Open AI persons comment was such sausage it had to be his own shitty AI
QubaXR@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Just like US won on air travel, health insurance and all other wonderfully deregulated industries.

Deregulation literally kills people, plus it gave us the ‘08 crisis which we’ve never fully recovered from

We’ve tried nothing but deregulation since Reagan/Thatcher, and it works every time!

What a bunch of fucking idiots. They could be increasing grants for AI research, offering fast-pass visas & citizenship paths to AI experts/PhDs from other countries, and working to increase the availability of necessary resources such as data centers and power. But nope! We’re just letting the commercial businesses cut corners so they can profit off of it faster.
Pretty much sums up this administration in a nutshell.

But bro we just need a bigger training set bro, just more bit of data and it’ll become real intelligence.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 months ago
they removed all stem research, so no more of that.
HubertManne@piefed.social 2 months ago
how can you deregulate something we have not started to regulate?
Jason2357@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
There was exactly one regulation specifically targeting AI companies, a Biden executive order that Trump ended on his first day.
JeremyHuntQW12@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Its about the regulation of power plants, its nothing to do with AI.
brianpeiris@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
The first item in the document basically says that if existing regulations stand in the way of AI supremacy, they must go. Boil the oceans.
ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Basically they’ll allow the use of LLMs in decision making even more. The chatbot kills people? Oopsie, you can’t sue us, or you’re breaking a federal law!

From 2008-2016 we did not have idiots running things. Theres been a very start downhill spiral since 2016

What do we “win”?
OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
Hahaha you don’t win anything. The rich win it all.
SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
But, but, but we played the game by their rules.
ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Even more AI slop.
SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
It’s all smoke and mirrors.
They use religion to “prove” they are right.
They use A.I. to “prove” they are smart.
They use Bitcoin to “prove” they are rich.
They embrace the invisible so you have nothing to complain about.
Jason2357@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
I wonder if this “de-regulation” will allow or prevent AI videos of trump wandering naked through the desert?

The only “wins” for this current US regime are negative records: most cruel, most degenerate, most stupid, most racist, and so on. And the “grand prize” for these wins will be war (civil or conventional) plus a spot in history among the worst people to ever destabilize and rule a country.

Dumbest administration in history.
IhaveCrabs111@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Enabled by the dumbest voter base in history
echodot@feddit.uk 2 months ago
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?
abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago

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.
homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 months ago
*Whew* I was just starting to feel anxious that this administration was grossly incompetent and painfully ignorant, but this new approach to *checks notes* . . . letting AI companies steal data so that “we” “win” the “AI race” has really turned that around

And then Trump releases an EO saying that AI systems can’t be “woke” and must toe the party line on all things. whitehouse.gov/…/preventing-woke-ai-in-the-federa…
RagingRobot@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Wait they aren’t going to regulate it? Didn’t he just sign some other shit saying it can’t be woke? Which is it?
blargle@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
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, assimilatinfmg and plagiarizing all copyrighted media ever created.
Two very different sorts of regulation.
echodot@feddit.uk 2 months ago
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.
innermachine@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I was trying to rear the EO last night and unless I’m fucked up I thought the EO pertained to just stuff the government has an the thing to do with? AI they would fund or aquire etc please correct me if I’m wrong I got lost in the sauce last night

The plan is to win a race for the best auto-correct and predictive text generator? What’s the trophy? And how is this being measured, by how much money or results? Because China has DeepSeek and it’s already better on both results and cost - so is there a plan?
These fucking idiots never think of the immediate next line of questions and always fail to be ready for basic details or follow ups. They just say whatever they think it takes for people to like them.

It’s unlikely any of this will ever be profitable, the only one making profit from this right now is NVIDIA. Everyone else’s costs dwarf revenue, even just operational costs, not even counting capital expenditure to set this stuff up. None of these companies have a path to profitability, and most of the little revenue is coming from services built upon other services that can afford to loose money due to investors.
At best the deregulation makes things less unprofitable and drags the bubble out a little longer.
JeremyHuntQW12@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Its just a proposal to remove restrictions on the building of fossil fueled power plants, plus a bit of AI generated slop about winning the AI race.
