A PowerPoint presentation made public by the Post claims that the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) used the AI tool to make “decisions on 1,083 regulatory sections”, while the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau used it to write “100% of deregulations”.
The Post spoke to three HUD employees who told the newspaper AI had been “recently used to review hundreds, if not more than 1,000, lines of regulations”.
Oh, good. Everything was feeling a little too calm, so of course they’re doing this right fucking now.
I wonder if those using the tool are prepared for “Unforeseen Consequences”…
Eh, who am I kidding. Of course they’re not.
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau used it to write “100% of deregulations”.
Doesn’t sound like very good protection. It should be illegal to use “AI” like this, making critical decisions with a technology well known for making massive errors is so fucking stupid I can’t even.
It should be illegal to use “AI” like this
That would require the people trying to pass laws to deregulate AI to stop trying to pass laws to deregulate AI. But no, that’s not what we want. We want more money going to the top while paying fewer people along the way.
With the way Xitter “reprogrammed” new results from Gr0ck, I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re just copying and pasting from project 2025 and telling whichever LLM to reword everything into legalese so that they can claim ignorance on how their laws are killing their voters.
Yeah I’m afraid we’re gonna miss the boat on this one too just like we did with social media, we learned nothing.
No, they did not use an algorithm to make the decisions. They are making the choices, but, being the feckless cowards they are, they’re actually trying to set it up so they can hide behind a fucking computer program.
Sigh …
That’s not how I meant it when 10 years ago talking about regulations being a bad thing.
I meant starting with copyright =\
“AI tool”.
I live in Russia and I’m pissed that they are making its gang in power look almost competent in comparison.
Anyone who does this either doesn’t understand how generative AI works or does understand and is just using it as an excuse to deregulate.
