alt Hacker NewsAll the ai gov drama is a giant shrug to me. The reality is uncle sam has all the power and whatever comes out of industry sam is gonna sam with just like any other gov.
Ethics dont exist on the global stage. The privacy ship sailed decades ago. It all looks performative to me across all sides.
The smart move is to side with gov using some hand wave jutsi about “we have a contract” to get access to sams big nuts. Sam aint gonna respect no contract regardless of what is in. He breaks all laws without consequence for the last 60 odd years.
Unless people start starving, no revolution is gonna change the status quo here. It is like 9D marketing/branding chess for ai companies
I'd really like you to understand that saying this kind of thing means you're taking the government's side, even if you do it with cool ironic undertones. I'm religious enough that I'm particularly sensitive to this dynamic - there's a lot of pastors out there who talk about how we live in a fallen world as an excuse for why we don't need to bother opposing some particular injustice.
