People like this should not be a government representative. But I guess that's the trend lately

I wasn't thinking of downloading an AI onto my low tier computer until now.

I've got a laptop kicking around from 2010 that's about to get deepseek just because they're proposing this dumb ass shit. I don't even use Gen AI.

Print the code in a book and mail it.

Surely, they cannot ban books... right? Right?

Edit: Wait wait wait... the Comstock Act says mail cannot be used for anything that can be used for abortion. And a AI can theoretically be used to get instructions for abortion. BOOM, it's banned! 👀

So I guess it's free speech as long as you agree with the goverment's speech. If not, then it's a crime.

Your tax dollars at work!

Pretty sure that requires open-ai to be jailed

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

You need to think in Republican. Corporations are people up to the moment they commit a crime, at which point they are not people.

It's only a proposed bill (thankfully), but definitely one to keep an eye on.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Eh, it's just virtue signaling nonsense. It's not going anywhere.

[–] knighthawk0811@lemmy.ml 36 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

that's what they said about vaguely gestures at everything

Wasn't that interested before but it does give it a certain allure now to be sure.

[–] thisphuckinguy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago
