Technology

Of course he's not the one overseeing it. Do you think they're actually going to be smart and staff it with people that have worked with AI for years... Or do you think they're going to staff it with people that have no fucking clue what they're doing because nepotism and "paying people back"? My guess is the latter. If you're making good money at a research institution or start up, why would you want to leave that and be the government's bitch? Remember when the FBI's Office of Personnel Management was hacked? Their head of Cryptography had zero background in it or computer science. Her degree was in Music. She even flat out said after the hack "I shouldn't have been in this position". Also look at all the current idiots that are attempting to govern smartphones, social media, and the Internet in general: they're either like 55-75 with no clue what they're talking about (there are TONS of videos and articles about Congress making absolute asses of themselves when questioning companies like Facebook and Google. One that comes to mind was someone asking the head of Google why iPhones were allowed to do X [couldn't think of the exact example and I just realized that X may be confused with Twitter now... fucking Elon...]) or they're younger and in touch with social media and the Internet in general, but still don't have a clue how any of it works. A prime example is Montana banning TikTok from the state. AFAIK it passed, but it's practically impossible to do since the state of Montana doesn't control the ISPs, cell carriers, Google, or Apple, so how they plan to implement this I have zero clue.
