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.
The only solace I find in this is that AI, and AGI specifically, is probably a massive grift that will crash spectacularly at some point.
Like crypto?
Very similar to crypto, the AI hype is sustained by some future promise that never comes true.
