The summary is that they want to eliminate regulations to facilitate the steal and disregard consumer rights.

And build data centers, as emphasized for the 100th time since inauguration.

If Murdoch succeeds with his recent WSJ campaign and gets Trump to resign or similar, brace for Vance and the AI bros. These schemes are literally devised by people who funded cannabis and Adderall distribution sites and have done nothing noteworthy.

I read the PDF. The "Remove Red Tape and Onerous Regulation Recommended Policy Actions" don't cite to any specific existing regulations. It just references executive orders that vaguely demand any such regulations be eliminated. So it bears repeating: what red tape ?

Well whenever Republicans bang on about red tape, it's usually stuff like:

* Anything remotely pro-environment

* Anything remotely pro-labor

* Anything not covered by either of those that attempts to stop someone who has a lot of money from doing A Thing

Yep, remember asking in previous US administration and AIs like Gemini how many genders there are or to generate pictures of white Europeans. People forgot too quickly ho big of a no-no that was and now they seethe when the same speech censorship practices they approved of are used against their talking points.

What I learned was that everyone's definition of censorship was: "everyone who disagrees with me".

Quick exercise: just scrolling down, count how many pictures don't highlight one man front and center. https://www.ai.gov/ Then click "fact sheets", "remarks", and "articles". He's everywhere. That's how unbiased this is going to be. (hint, the answer is one)

What's American for "juche"?

There’s this whole section about biosecurity and how AI is going to help malicious actors synthesize nucleic acid(gotta get the word count up I guess is why they don’t say DNA) Then in the recommended policies it references multiple times that there will be nucleic acid testing set up to catch malicious “customers” Is this policy targeted towards the Covid lab leak conspiracy or are they just aiming for officially co…

No it's a longtermism ideology thing. For whatever reason they're terrified of some idea of "garage bio warfare" but have absolutely no understanding of how biology actually works so they've zeroed in on the idea that it's just: synthesize DNA -> superplague.

One way or another, an LLM is a reflection of the ideology it was made from. That's why understanding ideology is important for understanding AI.
