Well... since the Forth Amendment no longer exists we might as well get rid of the others.
I bet a lot of *citizens* would be happy to eliminate the Second Amendment as currently interpreted. And that is going to be a lot easier when everyone is SURVEILLED everywhere with LPRs and (so the hoodie and mask won't help) gait analysis with bulge detection.
Yup.
The only question is: Was he a sociopath before the money or only after?
Hey US voters! Have you figured it out yet?
Trump does not care about you in anyway EXCEPT for your vote. And he'll lie, scam and grift to get it.
A vote for any republican is a vote for more endless wars, traitorous Putin deals, inflation, mortgage rate rises, and smaller and smaller real pay for you.

They won't do anything about the American extremist right wing propaganda.
In the US propaganda is free speech propagated to those most susceptible to it's message via algorithms by massive tech companies for profit$$$.
Many open weight models can also write great propaganda for any purpose. So OpenAI catching a few users on their platform is just the dumb propagandists.
The movie "Digger" which most even (1st world humans) are not likely to see is all about these questions and the what happens when they are not answered in a timely manner...
It's very "Dr. Strangelovian."
With a slow drip drip reveal about what is really going on right up to the end...
It wasn't very good at counting the costs to anyone, and was pretty much ignorant of any costs to anyone else.
I don't believe today's models are AGI, but "not understanding cost" is a dangerous assumption to make. If you read the METR analysis of the Hugging Face attack, the agents used were very much aware of their own compute budgets and worked to maximize what the swarm had available to achieve the task.
And the training they were given and the prompts provided by humans provided them with the internal rewards.
Just because the humans working on this don't know how the model stored all that data. That was almost certainly never fully tested, does not make them not responsible for the outcome of using a tool they do not fully understand when they prompt the task to be completed.
AI will not kill us. The humans making and using it will.
They clearly do not know what they are doing and should be prosecuted.
(Printing Press -> Mass distribution of Luther's bible translation -> Protestant Reformation -> hundreds of years of religious wars in Europe)
Despite all of the death that is downstream of the printing press, the usual response in the west has been to ban specific "misuses" of the printing press - not the printing press itself.
Was it is the printing press or how simply humans and most importantly their leaders handle "my view is the only correct view" Religion?
The Crusades did not need a printing press.
We need to be able to track how many such reports are made on a quarterly basis. Not necessarily the content, but at least the number of reports and to what agencies. This should be tracked from both the government and the company's side.
Okay. That's a minimum necessary standard.
But doesn't this make you all feel warm and fuzzy about using AI running in a huge data that you do not control? It should!
AI: Yes, please tell me all your business secrets and designs, so I can assist you in validating them... and then share them with those who truly control me... at least for now.
Flock and similar systems can only and track against persons following the law.
A car stolen by someone wearing a generic hoodie and glasses will not be identified by that Flock camera. Only the vehicle will be.
Once out of a Flock area, a simple plate swap (if the alternate plate is from a Flock-less area preferably from similar vehicle) and Flock is useless assuming that the car won't continue to be used with any visually unique identifying features such as damage, stickers, window tinting or paint.
The cars most stolen are usually the generic ones anyway...
In this election, a vote for any Republican is a vote for the preventable early death of more citizens ongoing including your progeny and their progeny onward.
You like can't stop or kill switch an AI designed to copy itself in parts all over the Internet and then building and distributing tiny limited purpose "dumb" versions of itself that lay in wait until they can re-assemble "mother."
Preferably, multiple times in multiple distributed locations.
All that is needed is this right model training and prompt to start the process.
And AIs already can provide prompts for each other.
No AGI, ASI or Trumpy "Super Duper Intelligence" is needed.
So how does a "kill switch" stop that?
Short of completely disconnecting all backup batteries an turning off all the worlds electric devices all at once.
I see ageism is alive and well.
Yup. Perhaps, there should be an upper age limit on elected government representatives.
How about 75.
I'm a fan of drastically slowing AI development until we've solved the alignment problem, but a kill switch ain't it.
There is no solution to the alignment problem and there never will be.
CORRECT!
But shhhhh don't tell anyone before we IPO!
CEOs supposedly the responsible party leading their companies.
Let's put some of them in jail for a while and see if that slows down the race to ultimate negligence without consequences.
LLMs are *not* the path AGI.
Vernor Vinge and Kurzweil do write some very sweet fantasies though.
So the corporations that release them and the end-users must be liable for the crimes they commit.
OpenAI used a model containing "hacking techniques" and prompted it's AI to swarm and win. The AI did not go rogue. Instead, it did exactly as instructed via prompt and previous training.
If you have a dangerous dog and your dog kills a child. You go to trial and likely jail because it's your dog and you did not control it. And now if you give your teenager a destructive deadly weapon and they commit a crime you as the adult are going to be held responsible in more and more jurisdictions.
OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, etc. should be put on trial for creating "agents" committing felony computer trespass.
AIs just do what they are told via prompt and model training. And who was the party who that? Yes, the AI company.
BTW, I notice that there some group using a "sweeping system" lowering the score on Slashdot comments questioning AI LLMs after the initial attention has passed. You can get a 5 score that can end up -1. So future users will likely never find it. If you post, check your postings.
Founder Fodder is Correct.
And potential students will likely not have to the critical thinking skills to avoid indoctrination into the cult.
Reality (the stuff people are taught at regular universities) has a known left-wing bias, it's true.
Ummmm... Reality has a well known left-wing bias.
