AI must be free of all regulation except mine!

This won’t win anything. This’ll just allow USA corps to allow their products to become as shitty as possible.

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 58 points 5 days ago

Enshittification of America.

At this point I just have zero hope for the future, riding this wave straight to hell.

[–] TeddE@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Hell is too kind and polite for the timeline we live in. We'll probably wash up in superhell or something.

And then Trump releases an EO saying that AI systems can't be "woke" and must toe the party line on all things. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/07/preventing-woke-ai-in-the-federal-government/

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago

GOP deregulating shit. It will not end well and the fucker Ronnie Reagan proves it.

[–] Jason2357@lemmy.ca 24 points 4 days ago

I wonder if this “de-regulation” will allow or prevent AI videos of trump wandering naked through the desert?

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Dumbest administration in history.

[–] IhaveCrabs111@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Enabled by the dumbest voter base in history

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

[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 42 points 6 days ago

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 19 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

And Mecha-Hitler 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 20 points 5 days ago (1 children)

The explanation I saw for this is that fascist rhetoric changes every 5 minutes so AI just can't keep up with it.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 20 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Epstein is a great example. Literally months ago, you had the hogs all hooting over "Lock Hillary Up!" wrt to Bondi's teasing of a secret list of criminals and crooks. Now we're supposed to pretend Jeffery and his Lolita Express flights are all Fake News?

Reminds me of the first few days after the J6 riots, as AM Radio talking heads scrambled to figure out whether they were Based MAGA Champions or Fifth Columnist Antifa Infiltrators trying to make Trump look bad.

Deregulation just for AI companies. Its still theft if a individual does it.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 31 points 6 days ago (1 children)

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.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago (2 children)

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

Just like US won on air travel, health insurance and all other wonderfully deregulated industries.

[–] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago (2 children)

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 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

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, assimilating and plagiarizing all copyrighted media ever created.

Two very different sorts of regulation.

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 ever to destabilize and rule a country.

[–] ileftreddit@piefed.social 44 points 6 days ago (2 children)

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

[–] Jason2357@lemmy.ca 10 points 5 days ago

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.

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.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 6 points 4 days ago

isnt it already deregulated asf/

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

cool. cool. cool...

soooo.....when are they going to unveil the Epstein list?

#release the list

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 34 points 6 days ago (4 children)

how can you deregulate something we have not started to regulate?

No surprise, deregulation is their solution to everything.

[–] 3dcadmin@lemmy.relayeasy.com 8 points 5 days ago

And then Skynet became aware and impeached Trump

they're gonna make it illegal to not use chatbots huh

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm sure Skynet will reward their choice with a quick death.

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

its less hyper intelligent machine overlord exterminating humanity, and more chatbots that cannot run a lemonade stand being tasked with managing the economy, freaking out and filling their digital diapers, and deleting everyone's social security numbers

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 1 points 1 day ago

Better than being turned into paperclips I guess.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

The AI race is about automating fascism for plausible deniability.

[–] etherphon@piefed.world 12 points 5 days ago

I think I'm with Warren G and Nate Dogg on this one, you need to regulate.

[–] flop_leash_973@lemmy.world 5 points 5 days ago

How very Reagan of them

Trump invents AI Superhighway, Greatness ensues.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days 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
