Resident Biden signed an executive order last Monday purportedly attempting to strike a balance between innovation and regulation of artificial intelligence (AI). In actuality, the order further enables the left’s mad dash toward ideologically capturing the most important technological advancement of the 21st century while also calling for the implementation of regulations that “mitigat[e]” the “substantial risks” AI presents.
Using the Defense Production Act, the order increases federal oversight and regulatory scrutiny of the industry by creating new reporting requirements and interagency coordination in handling AI. It also calls for the development of new technical standards and tools for the evaluation of AI systems.
The order further calls for AI companies to report on training, security, and testing of dual-use AI models and large computing clusters, a review of regulations for AI safety in drug development, and the Federal Trade Commission to consider rulemaking to ensure fair competition in AI markets. And it encourages the Federal Communications Commission to issue rules on the use of AI in communications networks.
It also requires that AI developers provide safety test results and other critical information — such as “the physical and cybersecurity protections taken to assure the integrity of that training process against sophisticated threats” and various program test results — to the federal government.
It is expected that these new regulations will hamper technological progress. That said, it may be advisable for American developers to take a slower, more measured approach to AI.
“Stifling ‘innovation’ shouldn’t be the main concern,” Policy Director of American Principles Project Jon Schweppe told The Federalist. “We should want tech companies to be very cautious in how they approach AI development. But is empowering government bureaucrats — who have their own political agenda — really the best approach? Especially when censorship of ‘bad ideas’ is viewed by so many progressives as the highest good?”
Schweppe continued by stating that elected officials, not unaccountable bureaucrats, should ensure AI is safe for public use. He said, “The answer to runaway AI is Congress imposing significant liability that holds AI creators responsible for their creations. We don’t want or need a Bureau of Artificial Intelligence.”
Biden’s order further directs the Commerce Department to identify “science-backed standards and techniques” for detecting “synthetic content” — media either wholly created or manipulated by generative AI models. It calls for “preventing generative AI from producing child sexual abuse material or producing non-consensual intimate imagery of real individuals,” the latter more commonly referred to as “deepfakes.”
Most notable, however, is the administration’s explicit call for the integration of AI with corrosive leftist ideologies that have taken over every major institution and pit Americans against one another. In the section titled “Advancing Equity and Civil Rights,” the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division is directed to “prevent and address discrimination in the use of automated systems, including algorithmic discrimination” and “improve external stakeholder engagement to promote public awareness of potential discriminatory uses and...

As the collapse accelerates, you can expect more and more royal edicts and blather to be spun out with great fanfare.
ReplyDeleteNone of that makes them legal nor a law. Only Congress can pass laws, the rest is unconstitutional bullshit.
Let that be a signpost on the road, that you know the collapse is really happening. You need to prepare for the worst, because whats coming will be 10x more.
Hiim and his F***ing equity. Not a brain cell left in that skull.
ReplyDeleteHe has no fear. He has nothing of intelligence that gets regulated.
