    I think we need to start talking global treaties where we just not produce for a minute. Like strategic factory shut downs that let us breath some fresh air.

    Ai isn’t the only one polluting for no reason. No layoff. Just really nice time off to move about the world. Fuck ai for sure. Data centers are not needed when it’s only other AI bots talking to eachother. Build some housing and crisis help centers for fucks sake.

      Cities, counties, states and the federal government could all do that right now, but seems taxpayers aren’t willing to vote for it.

        When Mamdani sat down at his desk, and moved the giant pile of paperwork that every other mayor ignored, he found a button that said “Something Good.” He pushed it, and something good happened. So he pushed it again. And again. And he kept pushing it.

        That button was always there, and any mayor before him could have pushed it, but they didn’t. That’s all they had to do, and they just didn’t do it.

        Furthermore, that button is on the desk of every politician, and most of them never push it either.

        We need to make them ALL start pushing that button.

          What an idiotic statement. Bernie Sanders is always been an independent and has always voted that way. He has voted with the Republicans when things are needed and looks good he has voted with the Democrats when things are needed and looked good. But he also recognizes who the super fucked up ones are currently. And right now that ain’t the democrats.

            His voting record shows Bernie votes with Dems 95% of the time, one of the highest consistently Dem voting representatives there are. So yes, he may be an ‘Independent’ but his voting record says that’s absolutely not the case.

              Could it possibly be because 95% of the Republican vote put forward is absolute dog shit and goes against everything that he represents? No that possibly couldn’t be it. Not at all.

        The corpos like it more that way. After a little lobbying, a popular politician tells the world that their product is actually Great and Mighty, the media repeats it uncritically, and the public believes it.

        Doesn’t matter if the product isn’t Great and Mighty, the stock goes up.

          Well, they do not have any kind of majority at the moment. So no, they cannot do much without any republican spine.

          After the midterms, let’s hope, they will have the majority everywhere except the White House. Which, after that, won’t take long.

      This assumes LLMs to be a strategically vital technology, which it’s often treated as with little apparent reason, highlighted again and again.

      Moreover, Chinese models are commonly open and you can freely run or study them.

          Is that conspiracy kicking in? Besides, it is still LLMs. Like, these text-generating things, not weapon-grade AI. The absolute worst they can do is be used to assist hacking, and modern models coming from the US are already very good at vulnerability detection and pentesting. Not to mention the best defense against that is not AI, but standardized and strictly enforced network security.

        Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) has proposed a remittance tax on certain artificial intelligence companies amounting to 50% of the company’s outstanding equity interests. Sanders says these equity interests could be used to establish a sovereign wealth fund, with annual direct payment distributions to Americans

        What the fuck are you talking about no he doesn’t lol? None of what you said is true or makes sense. He wants AI stock wealth to be given back to the people.

        There is nothing in there about the government owning the stock or even benefiting from the stock?

          I’m not sure what’s up with the hostility and calling everybody here dumb, but the page says stock.

          The remittance would comprise equity interests, which for a corporation, would mean stock.

          Bernie says stock:

          through a one-time 50% tax on the stock of the biggest AI companies

          And it would be run by the government:

          seven members nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate

          Right now that means Donald Trump and the Republican majority have the upper hand.

            Because they’re saying dumb things and unfortunately holding hands and being shy about someone’s straight lack of thinking doesn’t really get people to see the point. The comments in this section state:

            • Bernie is both not doing his job(he is) and benefitting from this/AI

            -AI is both bad and worthless but also dangerous and Bernie is dumb for trying to do anything (complete fallacy of the weak/dangerous threat kind, the enemy is both weak but dangerous. Silly)

            -Absolutely fake claims like the one above.

            So the whole comment section is just rife with stupidity. Stupid isn’t even a bad word.

            Back to what you said. I literally don’t understand why you act like it says stock changes anything or anything about what I said? Literally useless points you keep highlighting. Nothing is made more clear by whatever you’re trying to say.

            Donald Trump already had the upper hand he doesn’t care about the rule of law. Dunno why you’re viewing this like game of thrones.

            Bernie Sanders wants the wealth amassed by these AI companies which have stolen data and work of billions of people across generations to be handed back to the people. His strategy is to tax the STOCK (not sure why we’re bolding it but sure I’ll play along). He is following the regular ruling that stands for creating panels, legislative bodies, committee establishment process. The president nominates THE SENATE CONFIRMS(because you glossed over that part) this is literally the standard practice.

            So I don’t understand what you think you’re making clear or how what he’s doing is wrong here. He’s following the rules and wants to tax the stock of companies that have taken advantage of Americans. It literally makes complete sense and is nothing like what the comment above claims.

            The comment above suggests the government will own the stock? Or something ridiculous and Bernie wants to give that power to the president. Which is what I imagine an insane person’s interpretation of that article might be if they didn’t know anything about government functions or something. So in conclusion, it’s a very stupid interpretation.

              The “tax” just transfers shares of the for-profit companies into a State organization.

              So CEOs like Elon Musk will keep using them as CSAM generators, while the State is incentivized to keep them profitable… Even though we have no reason to assume they’ll ever turn a profit.

              AI should not be treated as “too big inevitable to fail” and yet here Bernie is.

              The president nominates THE SENATE CONFIRMS(because you glossed over that part) this is literally the standard practice.

              Re-read my previous comment. I mentioned the Republican-controlled Senate explicitly. Did you need it to be in bold too or what?

    As much as I dislike “AI” this is akin to stopping development of munitions. If we don’t continue to develop it we’ll be unable to defend against it.
