President Joe Biden is praising new commitments by Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft and other companies to meet a set of artificial intelligence safeguards brokered by his White House as an important step toward managing the “enormous” promise and risks posed by the technology.
We need a more up to date government that actually understands technology, the history of these companies and their practices. Until we get that government, this is all just fluff. Unfortunately in the back of my mind, it’ll take decades before we get one and for now these tech companies have been running wild knowing that our current government has absolutely zero understanding of technology.
