The Trump administration recently published "America's AI Action Plan". One of the first policy actions from the document is to eliminate references to misinformation, diversity, equity, inclusion, and climate change from the NIST's AI Risk Framework.

Lacking any sense of irony, the very next point states LLM developers should ensure their systems are "objective and free from top-down ideological bias".

Par for the course for Trump and his cronies, but the world should know what kind of AI the US wants to build.

Again, AMERICA doesn't want this. This is some dumb shit from a mentally deficient and decrepit old man that somehow got elected under very shady terms by a minority of the country.

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

As a US citizen, prove to me that most Americans don't want this.

Yeah, I see the protests, even in my Trump-loving town.

But that's it. People holding signs.

I don't see aggressive action. I don't see the necessary violence - yeah I said it.

I'm moving out of the country because everyone I've tried to rally says they're too busy, they don't have time, they care but they don't care that much, they think everything will work out, or they believe it isn't as bad as the news says.

The people I've voted for and elected just sit on their hands and do fuck all.

I'm 110% for fighting for and defending what I used to believe in, but not when literally all evidence and signs point to nobody else giving a shit.

Someone call me when you're ready to legitimately strategize about how to topple this fascist regime.

Zero presidents have ever lost as much support for anything at any time in the history of this country: https://www.economist.com/interactive/trump-approval-tracker

Not only is this a wildly unpopular president, it's a president who has shed 35-50% of their own voters. It's proof positive that you are wrong.

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Thank you for the information. I just hope it leads to action. Poll results to me are just someone standing around waving a sign.

These fascists didn't rise to power by following all the rules, and they won't exit or lose power by us following the rules. It's a sad truth.

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

We've seen this before.

They know how it ends.

[–] RecursiveParadox@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Brave of you to assume America will ever have free and fair elections again.

[–] Jason2357@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

They haven’t for a while. It’s just going to get more obvious.

I look forward to the big swing in the mid terms then based off your information

Nice, my red state is net disapprove.

Sorry America voted for this twice. You do not get to disown this after the fact.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This, at least, is a fact.

You could have voted Green. You could have voted Marianne Williamson in the Democratic primary. The little power our voters do have they just wasted.

[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The 2024 democratic primary was effectively nonexistent because Biden was running for re-election. Don't be ridiculous.

Beat me to it. Most same Americans don't want this, it's the current administration and their moronic lap dogs, and the conglomerates that are paying into Cheeto's personal accounts to "influence him" that want this. Id hope that most of us realize how insanely idiotic this is.

Also to, AI anti-regulation 2: electric boogaloo? Like they literally just tried to shoehorn this into the big bullshit bill only for it to get yanked, and that was what, two weeks ago?

[–] just_another_person@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yup. That's never going to fly, and even if it does, that doesn't mean the Executive all of a sudden gets to start telling private companies how they can and can't operate according to the law. It's so stupid.

While I understand what you are saying, let's not forget that the people who helped the turd get into power were not just those actively voting for him but also those who didn't vote because "both sides!!". That's not "a minority of the country" but actually the majority of it.

Thank you anyone who profiles entire people with stereotypes and outright lies is a bigot, no matter what they say

[–] themurphy@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Like how some americans see the Middel East, Russia, China, Israel, Palestine, Mexico etc etc etc..

Its not nice when its going the other way, is it.

[–] thedruid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I don't do that because it wouldn't be right. Doesn't matter who did what to me in the past.

For instance if you were a plumber and you intentionally smashed a piece of furniture while at a clients house, does that mean all plumbers are violently vandalizing people's homes ,no.

Because adult human beings know that the actions of one do not define the actions of all.

I am not changing this position. You can get the last word, throw an insult at me or do nothing.

Choice is yours but I'm done. I don't have to defend the correct position. It is correct.

[–] petrol_sniff_king@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I just, I do not understand why this upsets people so much.

I work for a company that does things I don't want them to do all the time. I've never felt like someone saying "[the company] wants to do [this thing]" was ever referring to me specifically whatsoever.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (8 children)

What if they said employees of your company all support a thing? That would include you.

It's absolutely insane to say all Americans support Trump when he has a net negative approval rating pretty much everywhere, including red states. Look at the opinion polls, most people don't like what's going on. Yet for some reason, people claim the majority of us like him for some reason.

You are right. I don't disagree at all. But racist mentallity is insane, and that is what I'm calling out. As do you.

[–] CXORA@aussie.zone 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

So it's a stereotype to describe what a country is literally doing ... okay.
