"The draft order, obtained by the Post, outlines a series of "Manhattan Projects" to advance military AI capabilities. It calls for an immediate review of what it terms "unnecessary and burdensome regulations" on AI development. The approach marks a contrast to the Biden administration's executive order from last October, which imposed new safety testing requirements on advanced AI systems." We've had many discussions here about AI regulation and many whingers crying "somebody should regulate this stuff!". I've often asked those posters WHO, exactly, should do it, and just to move the discussion along I've helpfully offered to go along with AI regulation as long as me and my friends get to do the regulating. But apparently that will no longer be necessary and Terminator will have an American flag patch on its shoulder. I'm sure we're all very relieved that that's been settled. [link] [comments] |
