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.
Sent to my state representative. Thanks!
Hell fucking yea. Who is this Biden guy?
Another W from Biden and extreme leftist will still say he did nothing. 😔
Nah, if this sticks, my extreme leftist ass will sing his praises.
Extremes hate everything, so it doesn’t really matter what they think.
Extreme leftists share the equivalent brain power as Trump supporters
Hey extreme lefty here, I just want healthcare, cheap housing, and to be left the fuck alone. Sure killing a few billionares and sending prosperity preachers to the coldest pit of Hel would be fun and all but I just want to do my own thing and not have to deal with rich cunts trying to exploit my labor. Is that too much to ask?
I don’t think that’s extreme lefty. Extreme would be those people wanting to replace capitalism, make everything government controlled, and be just as authoritarian and anti-democratic as the right already are.
I also wish to replace capitalism, with a mix of co-ops and syndicats. Maybe with some carved out exceptions for bussinesses that require say seasonal workers but dont reuire many workers for most of the year.
I also want to burn down prosperity churches and commit the blood eagle on billionaires. I am an extremist, I just happen to be pragmatic and realistic enough to know what I can realistically get. Tankies are just fascists with a red coat of paint.
I don’t see how any of that works at scale but ok.
As an extreme leftist, this rings hollow.
A lot of my leftist friends will still let the bad be the enemy of any sort of good whatsoever it seems. It’s exhausting as a leftist when you can never be outraged enough for other leftists.
This i can sympathize with. I do not reach the violently inappropriate level of outrage cultivated and appreciated in this country.
Dark Brandon is Awake.
I wish he was around more often than Sleepy Joe. 😔
Sleepy Joe is just a manufactured slur by a demented idiot supported only by second-long video clips of Biden between going to meetings and making changes.
I swear to god there has to be an entire chapter in Gödel Escher Bach about how this is literally impossible.
You’re never going to be able to formally prove anything as nebulous as “harm” full stop, so this isn’t a very convincing argument imo.
Joe Biden probably has no idea what most of those words mean, let’s be honest here. He’s only the president because the only other option we were given was worse.
He’s only the president because the only other option we were given was worse.
Not if you ask the freaks in /r/neoliberal. They think he’s the best president ever and that his only problem is a bad PR team lmao
He’s absolutely fine, and the vast majority of complaints I’ve seen fundamentally misunderstand the limits of the Presidency and why an experienced politician has rightful reasons to be cautious about the consequences of radical actions. Populists love to fill your head up with great ideas, but gloss over or ignore the consequences. Some end up lying about it others aren’t effective. Experienced politicians aren’t flashy but get things done step by step.
He’s absolutely fine if you don’t care about unconditional support for a genocidal apartheid state or the right to strike. Those are both cases where doing literally nothing would have been better than what he personally did.
Gaza–Israel is a hugely complicated situation. Let Hamas get away with it and you show their backers that they can get away with attacks like these. The Biden administration works behind the scenes more than out in public. We won’t know what they are saying to the Israelis. It’s a proxy war with no good solution. What are you referring to specifically?
You’re wrong, but you’re actually right.
I’m only “wrong” because others are reading something other than what I said. I’m gratified that at least one person understood though.
No, people are responding to what you said. Maybe what you wrote doesn’t impart your meaning as well as you thought it does.
Cool story bro.
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.

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.
Why not vote for the sake of other people when their lives, health, and safety are on the line?
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.
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.

Pretty darn easily given that the United States controls Nvidia

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.
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.
