The Trump administration recently published “America’s AI Action Plan”. One of the first policy actions from the document is to eliminate references to misinformation, diversity, equity, inclusion, and climate change from the NIST’s AI Risk Framework.

Lacking any sense of irony, the very next point states LLM developers should ensure their systems are “objective and free from top-down ideological bias”.

Par for the course for Trump and his cronies, but the world should know what kind of AI the US wants to build.

    No. America did not, and if you’ve been keeping track, he lost the popular vote by a huge margin the first time (which included insane amounts of election interference), and only “won” by 1.6% the second time, and only because of very specific gerrymandering and hoop jumping.

    Saying that’s a clear direction for an entire country is fucking insane. Like if I have $0.51 I might as well have a dollar. It’s just an insane argument.
