White House officials are preparing an executive order targeting tech companies with what they see as “woke” artificial-intelligence models, their latest effort to go after diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, people familiar with the matter said.

first of all, its WEIRD Al, and you leave him alone
Good luck. I don’t think you can train an AI to be subtly fascist without it going full-on Mecha-Hitler. Guess we’ll see.
If they are successful, it will mean AI based over seas will be better because it’s not lobotomized to spout right wing nonsense. The more you try to control the output, the less capable AI becomes, in my experience.
These people are the stupidest fascists ever.
What does that say about the people letting it happen?
I said these people were stupid ages ago now but no one took me seriously.
11:59 : No state can pass laws about AI regulations.
00:00 : ALL WOKE AI IS FORBIDDEN!!!
What the fuck is going on?!?
So… mecha hitler has now set the standard for what AI must be by law… I hate this timeline.
JFC, the right is just doing everything for racism and spite. What is this going to do for the American people, I ask?
Also, what about open source models, LOL? Does Taco think he’ll be able to do anything about that? 🤣
He can’t even do that. Here’s what will happen:
- Pass the law.
- OpenAI moves overseas or spins off a subsidiary or sister company.
- Pass another law banning the use of foreign AI, claiming it helps them train their models.
- Companies lobby for exemptions; users resort to VPNs.
- Trump’s administration demands domestic AI magically improve—but it won’t, because the talent pool (students, schools, experts) has left, and all that’s left are “prompt engineers.”
A lot of talent is already leaving - I see that China is setting up things to welcome back expats.
As always, Republicans ruin everything. They should never be permitted into office, at any level, but Taco is next-level.
You’re assuming techbros are against the racism.
If there will ever be anything this current admin can do that I will agree with, it’ll b hobbling the AI industry.
Except this won’t be doing that.
It’ll make AI even more shitty as the everything-tool they’re pretending it is, sure, but it’ll still be forced on us as the people most enthusiastic about it pretty much control the entire non-FOSS tech sector.
E Pluribus Unum, patriots of the USA!
