        The way his supporters talk is like this, if it is something they like, they claim Trump singlehandedly did that thing. If it is something they don’t like, they claim the fucking government is holdng Trump back from his real goals.

          You have just described how every evangelical infantalizes “God’s” will. These are learned psychological frameworks that are being copy pasted between different control vectors at will at this point.

          I am serious when I say there is no conceivable way to deprogram and reprogram the vast majority of them. The goal needs to be a total social and economic embargo. Completely exclude them from our lives in any way possible.

        His first time was tamed because Democrats did have at least the support of some crucial moderate Republicans. They don’t now, since the MAGA party purged most of the remaining Republicans.

    I don’t think this will make much difference honestly, we already have very little regulation here. It probably means that there will be copyright exemptions for training models. And honestly eroding copyright bit by bit is okay in my book.

    What we should be worried about are the human rights that are about to be violated.

      You’re right about the regulation but I’m not so sure about the copyright exemptions. All in all, you’d think he’s more likely to side with property owners - especially the heirs of media empires - over progress.

        It’s certainly true. Trump’s also close with Musk these days, and Musk certainly will pressure him to allow Grok to vacuum up all the data for free.

          Musk also has his hands on a fair amount of data through X and Tesla. But yeah… Copyright expansion seems like an odd place to start breaking the constitution.

        I mean, the rules would allow everybody to get around copyright in this way. A rule like that would apply to all the indie LORA trainers as well.

          Don’t forget the current supreme court motto though: “rules for thee but not for me”. Only massive and rich corporations will be allowed around copyright rules, but you and I and indie and open source will be held to the letter of the law.

      Problem is it is used to clean out copyleft too. Copyleft is a social good version of copyright. Using AI to wash it away, along with authorship, is not ok. Lots of open source wouldn’t have taken over if it wasn’t for stickiness of copyleft breaking “the tragedy of the commons”.

    When I told people that literally every aspect of life will be worse under Trump, I absolutely meant it. Republican poison will seep into literally every aspect of our lives. And this is exactly what I mean when I say “everything is political” to those who only single out a handful of hot-button issues as “political”.

    With the rise of fascism in the US, just keep “everything is political” in the back of your mind for the next 4+ years, and if you don’t believe it by then, I don’t know what to tell you.

      I think it’s pretty scary. Completely overwhelming the media and internet with near-infinite variations of their propaganda is the most powerful way I can imagine for them to carry out the stuff you’re more worried about, with even less resistance.

      It’s not the lack of AI safeguards themselves that worry me, it’s the constant stream of propaganda drowning out reality that worries me.

      I made a lot of Donald and Putin porn to shock the local magats. I never posted it, just showed them on my phone.

      Turns out that if you use some languages other than English, even the shittiest AI wouldn’t filter out the words haha.

    Imagine believing in “AI”. Now imagine politicians creating “safeguards” for it.

    We’re on a second tier of detachment from reality.

            I’ve heard that despite the vast majority of objective measures of societoeconomic factors improving under his leadership, many with direct links to policies he put in place, that he’s actually the very worst president in the 400 year span of American democracy.

              Maybe he shouldnt have insisted the economy was great and people should be Happy with it. That messaging lost the democrats the election.
