7m
Donald Trump said he would create an "AI Force" to oversee algorithms and soon name its head, as OpenAI CEO Sam Altman warned the U.N. Security Council about AI risks.

The AI industry wants you to say "the AI just did that thing on its own!"
Like, United Health's AI that's denying a shitload of claims with a 90% error rate? They wanted you to think it's just the AI.

As we get thrust into an unnecessary period of fascistic violence, war over resources, and the stripping of basic human services and dignity, the appeal of AI for the powerful isn’t just planning or war making, it’s creating a system that will do what they want and allow them to shirk all blame.

“Our AI content strategy has started a ‘doom loop’ that will hurt the performance of our models and the entire web at the same time. It is highly unusual that an end-product threatens the economic foundations of its essential suppliers, but that is the situation we have created.”
Obvs, but thanks.

What’s behind the AI doomerism?
What’s up with Trump’s obsession with the Kennedy Center?
And what does the Macklemore story tell us about power in America?
I’m back to discuss all of this, and much more, on a new Coffee Klatch.

If you want an example, here. The major corporations are already training their AI to engage in corporate espionage and subterfuge. And yet, Google, one of the most powerful companies in the world, gets to hide behind the “rogue AI” bullshit and avoid consequences.

Notice what’s happening just in the past few days.
AI caused war crimes.
AI hacked corporations.
AI is denying healthcare.
AI nearly caused war with China.
Already the concept is becoming a catchall and hiding that, in all cases, there were people and systems getting desired results.

Security spending is growing — except for the typical CISO
AI is becoming the biggest destination for new security dollars, but spending remains uneven and strongest among organizations with mature AI governance.

This fantasy that “AI is out of control” provides cover for powerful people and corporations to simply program systems to carry out actions and then shrug. And if that is brought into the larger scheme of operations, the powerful will shrug and blame the tool they control.

We've only begun to grasp the threat to our democracy of outsourcing government functions. The make-or-buy analysis is woefully myopic in the government context. Instead of learning that lesson, though. We may start to make it worse by outsourcing to AI.
One of the reasons Trump is doubling down on AI is it has become essential to his administration's campaign to weaponize the administrative state.

The whole dark fantasy of AI becoming a god is simply a neofeudal / neofascist mystification. Like peasants believing wars and pandemics and basic suffering is divinely controlled, we’re supposed to buy into sci-fi nightmares that further alienate us from how systems of power actually work.

Presumably the main focus of the AI Force and the AI Czar will be fighting any efforts to regulate AI.
President Trump says he is forming an “AI Force,” modeled after the Space Force, and will soon appoint an AI “czar.” Trump said his administration will not “hinder or stifle” AI growth, saying the technology could eventually account for as much as 25% of U.S. GDP.
