White House Considers Vetting A.I. Models Before They Are Released

Stupid people who can’t think will be vetting software that they believe thinks for them. What could possibly go wrong.

good, I’ll add vetted models to my blocklist

Why so they can ensure the model lies in their favor?

“free market”

FIFY White House Considers Vetting taking donations from A.I. Models companies Before They Are Released

this worries me with any tech.

1) if a smaller company dvelopes a competing product (openai and anthropic used to be small) will it hinder them and provide access to only the mion stream companies?

2) how does this affect non-us models?

3) will they only be approved if they say wonderful things about trump? have you ever asked grok about elon?

How about vetting Trump before he posts something?

Government finally realizing that bleeding edge software that has no regulation being applied to it needs said regulation after all.

Of course, this is more like the government is making sure the models produce the content the government wants the public to know. Very much like China, Russia, et al. Ergo, controlling the narrative.

Start with vetting the big arch and other burgers then let’s talk

so, pay to play. got it.

Lol good luck with that. Its too late.

This sounds like politicians that don’t understand the technology.

Anyone can create an AI model (including Gen AI LLMs). I personally created on for a hobby project trained exclusively on a series of old public domain novels from the early 1900s. Don’t get me wrong, my AI model sucks and only produced barely coherent responses, but it absolutely meets the definition of an AI model.

So how would this White House action (if implemented into law) affect me and my model?

• Would I have to submit my model to a government agency to run it on my local computer?
• Would it only apply to models deployed for the consumption of others?
• Private companies that build their own AI models purely for internal business purposes not used for public consumption, would they be obligated to put it them through some government process before these models could be used inside companies?
• Is it perhaps not all AI models would need to go through this government approval process, but then what criteria defines a model that would vs one that wouldn’t?

Usually, tech companies work as hard as they can to lobby the government to avoid regulation. In a usual tech bubble, these kinds of comments would be the lede:

“The technology is moving extremely fast, and there are few formal procedures, but they also don’t want to overregulate,” said Dean Ball, who was a senior adviser on A.I. in the Trump administration before leaving last year for the Foundation for American Innovation. “It’s a tricky balance.”

You can tell how desperate these LLM companies are to get a fig leaf of legitimacy before they run out of runway that they’re willing to accept government regulation to get it.

I’m fairly certain that their idea of meaningful review is making sure that clankers all say what a great guy and beautiful, perfect, beloved President Donald Trump is and how beautiful and perfect his ballroom is going to be and how mean and nasty Democrats are and especially that bastard Obama who thinks he’s so cool because he got a Nobel and Donald Trump is the most awesomest president ever in the history of ever and that’s why he deserves every Nobel and did I mention the ballroom?

We can absolutely trust the people talking about “woke AI” bring the ones to determine what is acceptable.

Seems illegal
