    *does not apply to Democrats or people trying to protect human rights within a state if it conflicts with right wing authoritarians’ vision for how everyone else should live.

      Ya even with our conservative court they even can’t ignore the power states have in enforcing their own laws outside of what the constitution specifically says the federal controls. I guess that assumes if any of them even care about the constitution anymore.

      He’s trying to rule by decree, but most of his orders are for things he has no authority to do.

      They should be printed on soft paper so at least someone could wipe their ass with them.

    This is almost certainly because this very thin economy, or at least the stock market, is only barely staying afloat on the back of the AI bubble. This move could create room for them to superficially extend the bubble as long as possible and maximize their profits.

    Is it me or is the Cheetos purposely driving the US into a civil war? Like, I would immediately believe it of evidence shows up that trump was paid by Putin to kill the US, but the more and more o see him doing this shit, I really believe he’s purposely trying to wreck that shit hole country

        Let’s see how it turns out. I think it’ll be interesting to watch and I understand now why they’re trying to get people to bet on new events because at this point it’s the only bright spot in this dystopian hellscape.

    Unsure if this EO will stick, but I am actually in favor of something like this. I dont think regulations for products that live on the internet work on a state by state basis

    So are they saying AI is a national security threat? Or that living without AI is a national security threat, in which one would imagine AI should be provided free access by the federal government to every person, as it is a threat to not have access? As an executive order is designed to be used only for an issue of national security, which we must have been living in such a threat since the country was founded until now.

    Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t this effectively toothless? Like executive orders only effect things directly under federal and more specifically executive purview meaning even a city government could pass a regulation on AI in their area and it’d have more legal weight than an executive order. Or are they abusing unrelated powers to declare that no one can regulate AI?

    Like I’m pretty sure the supremacy clause doesn’t apply to executive orders.

      More specifically, they’re just directives to federal employees. It’s the equivalent of your boss telling you how to do your job.

      Yes, you are correct. A federal law would preempt a state law, usually. But this is not a federal law, so it’s a load of kindling.
