I see plenty of objections, many from people who probably know much more about AI and US law than myself, but if what I interpret is accurate I’m trying to find flaw with it, given what’s confronting us with AI and its management.
I don’t see anywhere where the US government would be buying or bailing anything out, at least not upfront anyway. There’s no doubt to me these companies have stolen much, so they owe the public back for that. There’s no doubt to me those that run these systems aren't working in the US public’s interest, so the question of whether regulating or offering public protections should happen isn’t hard for me. That of course implies good governance, not what currently exists, which is a problem.
As I said I might be missing a lot, not being American or an AI user, but yeah aside from who is in charge currently I only see benefit here.
It hurts the profit margins by benefitting the public, so it will fail. A snowball has a better chance in Hell than this bill has to pass.
That one I didn’t miss, I left it out. I can’t argue with it.
