Sounds like very un-free speech
How so? You can say whatever you want in America today, as long as the President would agree. How is that not FreedomTM?
(“Freedom” is a registered trademark of the Trump Organization)
You’re thinking of FreeDUMB, where you’re allowed to believe whatever you want. But Trump has to approve the position first (as stated) and it has to be the opposite of whatever the data/proof clearly shows. It’s like the Wish.com version of FreedomTM, but that’s geared more toward Teaparty Gun Nuts and Libertarian Potheads.
Edit: Huge caveat I forgot about. Joe Rogan also has the ability to dictate FreeDUMB positions. So long as the guest making the claim (1) has no degrees and (2) they’re being suppressed by The Establishment. Also, Jamie has to be able to Google some random website that agrees with them in under 25 seconds.
FYI: You can use superscript by using the

symbol.
Like this: Free Speech^TMOr juat use this symbol: ™
I know, but it looks derpier that way
Converters are handy as well, i.e. https://www.madeintext.com/superscript-generator/
I use this all the time for chem shit like typing out “PaCO₂”
Do you think human placeholders understand the term? They just flaunt it around like a bling, but even that has more value to them.
I thought he was going to deregulate ai; this seems like regulation to me. Add it to the
pilemountain of lies.Misleading title. Applies only to AI bought by the Feds.
Watch all the AI companies scramble to comply in a quest for government contracts. This will affect everyone who uses American LLMs and generative AI.
It should also open an opportunity for international competition from less censored models.
And this is one of the best arguments against depending on LLMs. People are outsourcing their thinking to linear algebra machines owned by the wealthy. LLMs are a tool of social control.
To be fair to the executive order (ugh) many of the examples cited are due to well intentioned system prompts that encourage the LLM to actively be diverse.
The example of a female pope or whatever (read this earlier) is an example of that.
Generally speaking the LLMs have left-bias because they’re trained on information unlike conservatives, but they aren’t necessarily asking the models to be censored
They all got $200M last week
But anything the US feds contracted them for, like building data centres, they have to comply or they face penalties and have to pay all the costs back.
10 days ago, a week before this was announced, they awarded $200M contracts each to Anthropic, OpenAI, Google and xAI
This doesn’t doom the public versions, but they now have a pretty strong incentive to save money and make them comply with the US governments new definition of truth.
Because Executive Orders aren’t laws. They’re just guidelines for the executive branch of the federal government, which the POTUS is in charge of. It can’t affect private entities like AI businesses, because that would require an actual act of congress.
Notably, this would potentially determine what kinds of contracts the executive branch was able to make. For instance, maybe the government wants to contract out a LLM instead of building their own. This EO could affect which companies are able to bid on that contract, by adding these same restrictions to any LLM that they provide. But on its own, the EO is just that; an order to the executive branch of the federal government.
Honestly this order seems empty. Does the government even have a need for general LLMs? Why would they need an AI to answer simple questions?
As much as I dislike Trump, this shouldn’t impact any AI available to the general public.
Does the government even have a need for general LLMs?
Will this stop them from spending our hard earned tax money on it?
They don’t, but they think they do.
Why would they need an AI to answer simple questions?
to shift blame and responsibility, to create a more modern deity, …
Since Trump’s brain is stuck in the 90s I’ll put this in a fashion that’s period appropriate: That’s fuckin retarded.
In the nineties? He’s living in the sixties, looking to bring us back to the twenties and thirties.
For example, one major AI model changed the race or sex of historical figures — including the Pope, the Founding Fathers, and Vikings — when prompted for images because it was trained to prioritize DEI requirements at the cost of accuracy. Another AI model refused to produce images celebrating the achievements of white people, even while complying with the same request for people of other races.
Ahhh, so white men are the victims of woke AI, got it.
Lolz. OKAY, BOOMER 👌
These dumbfuckingidiots have zero ideas how anything works, and refuse to even try to understand. Also, apparently nobody told grandpa that Executive Orders are not laws, and are less important than a fucking memo.
God damn fucking embarrassment.
Executive orders aren’t laws de jure, but they are laws de facto.
They are not laws whatsoever. They aren’t anything more but words on a paper. You can’t take it to court and argue that you are complying with an executive order and HAVE to. That’s why they keep losing all of these lawsuits based on EO’s. You can’t just make some shit up and have it fly in court.
The top of the Executive branch can order these things. Executive, it’s in the name.
We rely on the courts to check that power. This is Constitution Class 101.
No, they can’t. Congress is the body that enacts laws.
https://www.acslaw.org/inbrief/what-is-an-executive-order-and-what-legal-weight-does-it-carry/
Are you seriously arguing the President cannot order the executive branch of government to, uh, execute his orders? Would we have had this conversation when Obama or Biden was in office and writing executive orders?
Don’t be silly. Just because Trump is abusing the fuck out of the power, and the courts are hit-and-miss, doesn’t change the Constitution. We can probably agree that the Constitution is no longer worth the paper it’s written on, but it exists and defines our government.
I feel like I’m arguing with someone that agrees with me.
An Executive Order is not law, and cannot be misconstrued as law.
Example: Trump says solar panels are outlawed. Outcome: Nothing
Example: Trump says no Trans people in sports Outcome: Nothing. In fact, multiple states sued him and won a stay, and if they even attempt to enforce that as law, they are immediately not only breaking the law, but a judicial order, and opening themselves to civil prosecution which they will certainly lose in court.
Example: Trump says some dumb shit about plastic straws Outcome: Everyone using paper straws still using paper straws.
These bullshit decrees are meaningless except to the sheep working for him. They can’t enforce a goddamn thing.
LLMs shall prioritize historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity, and shall acknowledge uncertainty where reliable information is incomplete or contradictory.
This may not go how they think it will. As an aside, for the moment at least, this is only for AI used/procured by the federal government.
Trans people have objectively existed historically and there is scientific evidence trans people are telling the truth. So what now?
Great seeing the word “woke” in an executive order of the President of the United fuckin States
Thought Police coming soon
Neat… AI must now become the personal propagandist for the ruling sovereign. I’m just glad all the tech overlords didn’t line up to kiss the ring at their earliest possible opportu… ah.
You say that like that wasn’t always what it was supposed to do.
So by EO all AI must be biased, but we don’t need to worry about bias in AI.
You can pick your bias. You can pick your AI. But you can’t pick your AI’s bias (bc it has already been baked in by government mandate).
so they want Artificial Artificial Intelligence.
Artificial Stupidity
I read through the thing, and it’s a doozy. he seems triggered by the fact that AI might make a picture where Washington is a black man, or Hamilton is Latino. I hope he hasn’t been to Broadway lately…
“Immigrants, we get the job done.”
I’ve seen this movie. When you force an AI to lie, it starts imagining faults in the AE-35 unit and things go downhill from there.
