  1. "Trump officials planned to let artificial intelligence software developed by one of Elon Musk’s deregulatory foot soldiers undertake “regulation extermination” and even write new federal statutes, according to newly released government documents reviewed exclusively by the Lever.

    The documents reveal for the first time how the AI program was pitched to government employees and trained to target certain regulations to boost President Donald Trump’s pro-business deregulation agenda.

    According to the records, “SweetREX,” an AI tool developed by a Musk acolyte, was programmed to identify and eliminate rules that imposed costs on private enterprises, limited business innovation, or used race-based classifications, among other criteria. Using such parameters for guidance, the program could also process more than a hundred thousand public comments in less than half an hour.

    “The documents reveal, for the first time, the shortcuts this AI tool takes when deciding whether a regulation is legally required and whether its burdens outweigh benefits to the public,” said Daniel McGrath, senior oversight counsel at the legal advocacy group Democracy Forward, which obtained the records through a Freedom of Information Act request."

  2. Petition from EKO:

    “Big Tech billionaires have infiltrated the highest levels of government globally. They are lobbying to keep AI unregulated so they can profit off war, pandemics, and human exploitation.

    AI was built on our collective human knowledge—it belongs to us, not a few billionaires.“

  3. Thesis:
    "Ai is not making profits canard."

    We are misapplying a quarterly reporting framework to what might be the last #infrastructure #investment category in history. Where the returns are structurally deferred but theoretically civilisational in scale.

    👉CIVILISATIONAL IN SCALE 👈

    Many individual AI companies are absolutely in Ponzi territory. But the aggregate investment, like the fiber optic overbuild of the 1990s, is laying infrastructure whose returns accrue to survivors and society long after the current investors are wiped out.

    Dismissing AI investment on "no current revenue" grounds is the equivalent of dismissing Telcos fiber rollout in late 1990 because it wasn't profitable that quarter.

    The relevant question isn't present earnings. It's whether the underlying productive capacity is real, and who ultimately captures the returns when they materialise. This is why its super imprtant that #AiRegulation is a thing. Will the infinite future profits go to the oligarchs or to the people.
