      ? I don’t see them trying to sneak an AI regulation ban again anytime soon. This is about the strongest bipartisan support against anything I can recall in my life.

      Many of the people that voted against this are to blame for many of the other problems we are about to be hit with.

      However, of all the scary shit in that bill, this was one of the most concerning to me. Specifically in terms of irreversibility to the damage it would do, the creation of national AI surveillance databases being built across the country, and the kind of environmental and safety regulations that will have to be ignored in order to power them.

      The closest thing to hope, I hold for my own state, is that I just hope whatever lesson we ended up serve as in future history books isn’t on the same scale or worse than Chernobyl.

      I can breathe a little easier knowing that the entire country won’t be facing a mandatory federal law demanding they be more like Louisiana in terms of deregulation in order to make a terrible idea actually profitable, regardless of how many people it hurts.

          Fair enough. That’s never been a doubt to me. I still don’t understand how the Zodiac killer could hold office as long as he has, but as long as he’s got power, he’s going to keep trying to destroy this country.
