Lawmakers are grappling with how to address ...

Just a reminder that the government is actively voting against regulations on AI, because obviously a lot of these people are pocketing lobbyist money

Oh I just assumed that every Conservative jerks off to kids

Get some receipts and that will be a start.

Receipts you say?

We're at 56 pages of this now for a nice round count of 1400 charges

So far as I am aware all of these are publicly searchable court cases

Alright, now we just need the main stream media to run the story.

I mean with all the zealotry against drag shows they should be ready to run with this one right?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

You'd think so, right?

A 99-1 vote to drop the anti AI regulation is hardly the government voting against. The Senate smashed that shit hard and fast.

Expecting people to know about that 99-1 vote might be misplaced optimism, since it hasn't been made into a meme yet.

especially that ~~Abbot~~ Ted Cruz, who brought this one up, voted against it in the end, which is pretty confusing for an european tbh

e: i mean that it's memeworthy lol

I'm confused - by Abbot do you mean Gov. Abbott of Texas, and are we talking about the same issue? Cuz the 99-1 vote was about a senate bill regarding AI. Greg Abbott can't vote on senate bills, and there's no senator named Abbot.

In the case of US govt, the AI part of the bill they voted against was the part that blocked regulations on AI for a period of 10 years.

In case that wasn't clear, the US govt voted in favor of regulating AI. 99-1.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Even in countries a lot less corrupt than the US this is an issue.

Especially because the US government/companies doesn't do jack shit for people

They want to be regulated so they can finally have their mote. Cutting out the states' power does mean they will only have to buy one group of politicians in Washington and those are some relatively cheap Hoes
