    AI keeps sending funding to the asteroid detection guy, the DNA vaccine people, the bee people and other climate change people too. It wants to send money to the education department but we fixed that! We’re so good at AI! Oh look, it keeps saying stuff about Louisiana under water! Crazy! Let’s fix that!

    AHA! I KNEW IT! Trump, MAGA and the freedom caucus is all just a front for the robot apocalypse movement.

    Trump crashes the global economy and then the robots come in saying We’ll fix everything We’ll use logic!

    Now I’m frightened to my core.

    AI doesn’t scare me.

    People making decisions off of AI scare me.

    The government mandating people use AI to make decisions frightens me to my core.

      AI should scare you. People will just dump everything on AI and then let it fuck over your life. What happens if AI flags you as a terrorist and your drivers license is suspended, or your health care is cancelled? What happens if AI says you’re fraudulently collecting social security? There’s nobody to blame, because they’ll just blame the computer.

        That’s the crux of my statement, yes.

        AI doesn’t scare me.

        How people respond to it scares me

        And that it’s being prepared to drive/copilot government agencies scares the everliving shit out of me.

          You are both blind. Be scared of the combo and stfu. It’s evil people with software that helps them. It’s history all over again. Not complicated. Stop arguing and fucking stop them

      So far the Trump administration and the Federal government under him don’t need AI to justify stupid, globe-wrecking policy.

      AI told me to do [wrongful action] is no more a valid excuse than I was just following orders. At least not to an international tribunal or a (seriously peckish) public.

          I was gonna say, it certainly allows insurance companies to launder their original intentions as “oopsy, AI made us deny all those claims (we wanted to deny anyway), don’t be mad at us” and then people bitch about the bad AI causing all these issues instead of the insurance company who wanted the exact same outcome, regardless of AI.

          All that said, I’m giving another recommendation that people go subscribe to Citations Needed.

    AI is wrong so often this is extremely scary.

    They can also do evil things and “blame” it on AI.

      Never attribute to AI that which can be adequately explained by incompetence.

      If you dig in to the tariff calculation, it’s simply trade deficit / 2, the other two variables are constants that cancel eachother out. AI would probably do a better job making a complex algorithm, this is just a lazy human adding some flourishes to BS their way through.

    Now they just use LLM to generate formulas to calculate tariffs that fit their fantasy. Gosh I wish they actually taste their own failure for once not just constantly fail up.
