Highlights: The White House issued draft rules today that would require federal agencies to evaluate and constantly monitor algorithms used in health care, law enforcement, and housing for potential discrimination or other harmful effects on human rights.
Once in effect, the rules could force changes in US government activity dependent on AI, such as the FBI’s use of face recognition technology, which has been criticized for not taking steps called for by Congress to protect civil liberties. The new rules would require government agencies to assess existing algorithms by August 2024 and stop using any that don’t comply.
As long as he doesn’t start getting in the way of open source algorithms were fine.
Delay llama 3 and I’m voting for whoever runs against Biden. No exceptions, I will become a single issue voter and this will be my issue.
Pretty dumb dawg. The people running against him want christofascism. Not becoming the Christian version of Iran is my single issue.
Kbin, what do you expect.

Haters gonna hate I guess 😇
Nope, this is the most important issue for me. It overrides all other concerns.
Why is it the most important issue for you?
The thing that has the most direct and pressing impact on my life right now. A ban on open source AI would be like a ban on watching television.
I must guess you cannot get pregnant, aren’t a minority, as well as are wealthy. Otherwise I cannot see how this can ever be true.
That second one doesn’t matter when it comes to abortion because guys also have wives and girlfriends who can get pregnant and it’s pretty important they can abort when they do. Acting like abortion isn’t something that impacts men as well is nothing just isn’t the truth.
And I’m not really wealthy, but I live a pretty slimmed down lifestyle with very few expenses such the money is not a direct concern.
When there are no pressing issues for me to vote for those things become stuff I would vote along the lines of, and I side with a Democrats on all of them.
But I’m not some idiot who’s going to vote for the sake of other people, I vote for issues that matter to me and nothing else.
Don’t fuck with AI (and continue funding Ukraine) and I’ll be on their side. Simple as that.
That’s quite a long winded way of saying, “fuck you, I got mine.”
Well no, I don’t got mine, quite the opposite. “Mine” is literally in the process of being banned.
I’m saying “fuck you, if you act against my interests I’m not voting for you”
And I’ll stand by that to the end. When “mine” is no longer under threat I’ll vote for Democrats every day of the week.
Why not vote for the sake of other people when their lives, health, and safety are on the line?
Because I’ve seen these things work and I know for damn sure that if those people have a chance to vote for me they wouldn’t do it in a million years.
I’ve learned better than the trust narratives of how you should be a good person.
All I will get is yet more rounds of talk about how everyone else needs help while all the issues I actually care about are left to wither and die.
So fuck them, I’m voting based on the issues that I feel are important and impact my life.
I sure hope you are a strawman account because you are an idiot if this is who you are.
The idiot is the person who votes based on other people’s priorities.
If you want to believe garbage about some impending Christian fascist state you’re more than welcome to, but reality is quite a bit more mundane.
If we end up in a fucking concentration camp together I am shiving you. You stupid motherfucker.
You can shiv me in your doomerist fantasies.
Aint doomer, just a very big follower of hope for the best prepare for the worst. Has kept my kin and ancestor alive in the past will do the same in the future. But then again I aint the retard who’s more worried about useless tech junk that’ll probably have minimum effect on society as whole.
I probably wont convince ya of jack and or shit, but what I can do is point out that not looking out for other folks usually ends badly for people. A shunned man is a deadman.
Acting like everyone ending up in concentration camps is without question doomerist.
So does letting the government put the most revolutionary technology of the century in the hands of big tech. The Democrats choose their policy. If nobody swing votes and you all expect the world to blindly vote Democrat they’ll get away with shit they shouldn’t get away with.
The ideal scenario is that there are enough people like me that the Democrats think twice about being overbearing and still win regardless.
I don’t think you have anything to worry about. All this requires is that any models used by the government are tested for bias. Which is a good thing.
Go ask an early generation ai image generator to make pictures of people cleaning and it will give you a bunch of pictures of women. There are all sorts of examples of racial, sex, and religious biases in the models because of the data they were trained on.
Requiring the executive agencies to test for bias is a good thing.
How is the government going to get in the way of global, open-source development, regardless of what nonsense shit is passed?
The same way they do it with crypto bullshit I’d imagine. Prosecute people for export.Edit: my bad. Daddy government can only do good. That’s why we support Israel.

I’m glad it got shut down, but it doesn’t mean it didn’t have a chilling effect for years.

It was an issue the government created to inhibit crypto. Consider 3D printed gun models, because they did the same kind of thing there and it’s in effect still.
I fucking can’t with you people.
Are you saying it’s illegal to create, discuss, possess and transfer STL files used to print ghost gun parts?

Federal Laws Concerning Ghost Guns
In August 2022, the Biden administration enacted federal regulations for all ghost gun sellers and dealers. These regulations put Ghose guns in the same legal category as traditional firearms. They further require that dealers and manufacturers of ghost gun building blocks must be federally licensed. The building blocks (the gun’s frame and receivers) must have serial numbers, and purchasers must pass a thorough background check before purchasing these parts. Records of sale must also be kept by sellers.
These regulations did not make ghost guns illegal. People who own ghost guns can still have them provided they aren’t legally barred from owning guns. But any dealer having ghost guns must serialize them.
Eleven states and the District of Columbia already have laws regulating ghost guns, and some of those laws ban possessing ghost guns. Unfortunately, these states cannot cut off the national supply chain for ghost guns. Hopefully, this rule will ultimately do.
So ---- AGAIN — what the fuck are you talking about?
It’s EAR restrictions like I fucking told you.
You don’t even know what I’m even talking about. I’m not going to bother anymore.

If you’ve got a better reason you look like you use boot polish for lipstick I’m all ears.
The government using export restrictions (and any other law they can try to make apply) to enrich corporations isn’t fucking new.

Pretty darn easily given that the United States controls Nvidia
Wut?
I read through your comments and I don’t actually think you have a clue what you’re talking about. I bet you’ve never touched a jupyter notebook or pytorch in your life.
Is there something confusing in that sentence? The US has already banned the export of cards above a certain speed to China. It would be simple to extend that control.
This will entrench big tech in federal government, but I’m not too worried about limits on the government.
Yeah, the only concern I have so far is the leverage of the defense powers act to require foundational model development to sent red team results to the Fed. That’s a hint that will enable them to ban release of models in the future.
