back to article US bipartisan group publishes laundry list of AI policy requests

After 10 months of work, the bipartisan Task Force on Artificial Intelligence in the US house of Congress has unveiled its report, outlining recommendations for federal AI policy. The sweeping 253-page report [PDF] makes 89 recommendations based on 66 key findings in 15 different areas. The 24-member (evenly split between …

    And as usual, nothing will come from this...

    As long as there are big multi-million dollar corporations making money off of this so-called A.I. that are willing to

    make some campaign-contributions or do some 'lobbying' in Washington nothing will change.

    The only way this will end is when the fake A.I. bubble finally bursts and a lot of people suddeny realize they've been had.

      Merry Xmas chuckles there from me.

      No! There's more! Follows the first to the chin with one to the face and I'm down...

      You have got it spot on though. the only real benefits will be for those on the board and their underlings.

      I'm sure some will filter through but tech will have probably moved on by the time they catch uo. They are only talking about Deep Fakes now! years after they have been around.

      The best solution is to stop having these money-burning groups and stop listening to them. I have crossed paths with uniformity like them before and those had real power. They are money-funneling projects at they very best. Massive tax avoidance is more like it.

      Almost all of their points are dated and it is already quite possible to implement. They are still trying to catch up and understand that their puny efforts to control the beast is pitiful..

    The problem with current AI ...

    ... Is that it is all A and absolutely no I.

      Depends.

      Tis the season to be...

      Try Gemini 2 with a new account not linked directly to any of your existing accounts. This should give you a week or so before your AI profile catches up with you.

      Avoid frivolous conversation history. Seed it a few (5 is best, but 2-3 is fine) combined-concepts models (like an app, but a concept such as temporal computing with hyper-recursive loops).

      When you can get the AI to struggle to answer then you are done on that model. When all models are done, prompt build a new model to control and interlink those early models.

      Happy Christmas, babi J

        If each new article about "AI" causes another new account to be created and filled with LLM output* will we soon pass the AI Commentard Event Horizon and be sucked into an unending spiral of mind-bending Vogonosity?

        * "hyper-recursive loops"! Deaths too good for them!

    When AI is in Charge are Nations Concerns Moot ‽ .

    The 24-member (evenly split between Democrats and Republicans) Task Force – an offshoot of the committee on science and space technology – said the aim of all these is to keep the US competitive in AI while simultaneously taking action to address some of the problems that have already arisen due to its rapid rise in relevance.

    You may have to consider and accept, rather than deny and reject, transformative Generative AI, .... whether of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), also known as Strong AI, or of Super AI which would/can think, reason, learn, make judgements and possess cognitive abilities that surpass those of human beings, or Learned Large Language Learning Machine for Advanced IntelAIgents of Alien Means, or a currently unknown unknown in some other guise with no present descriptor ...... is deciding on the future course of nations' Earthly existence with there being no other choice available in the matter ........ and as worrisome and even terrifying as that may be to many, the evidence being presented by rapidly unfolding developments becoming general public knowledge in the field, more than just suggests it be more likely than not, and much sooner than will ever be admitted whenever such was never even imagined as something being possible.

    And whenever resistance is futile and self-destructive, to fight against it will surely have one proscribed and publicly designated a hostile terrorist enemy ripe ready for Great Game retirement/extraction/extermination

    For any struggling with AI, here be a short read on the matter ...... Understanding the different types of artificial intelligence [according to IBM]...... https://www.ibm.com/think/topics/artificial-intelligence-types

    What's the point?

    Companies will go forward with abandon, even into potentially risky directions, when there is money to be made. All governmental objections will be resolved with wads of cash pointing out that "we need to get this before <random country that we don't like> does".

    Alternatively, there is great deal more than just wealth and value to be generated and consolidated with governmental requirements absolved with lodes and nodes of fast flash counterfeit crashing cash being being instructed and directed and donated to leading entrepreneurial executives/administrations collapsing and repurposing failed and failing companies as the future and its derivatives make progressive jumps and lateral moves and quantum communication leaps with abandon in order to grow new economies that scale and reject potentially risky reduced instruction sets, with future planners having decided to accept and explore and experiment with future plans that are to be of Advanced CyberIntelAIgent Design favouring Comprehensive and Complex Simple Instruction Sets.

    Because the future is naturally nothing at all like the past whenever intelligence is responsible for progress and change, it is only logical to realise the present will introduce that which is disruptively novel and easily revolutionary ..... and that and/or those imagined to have created it ....... so that blame for traditional and legacy systems failures can be apportioned to alien forces beyond known human command and control.
