A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Fortunately, they can't arrest everybody using open-source AI models. There are clear efforts to stop momentum with geo-tracking high-end GPUs and indirect efforts like the EU plan trying to backdoor everything.
Personally, I see it all as ineffective.
what about this current administration is effective?
I think you're under the misconception that standard legal rules apply with the current government.
There's a whole world out there - if anybody can effectively run these models, how will they know to stop everyone?
The current US administration and sphere of influence/power may be tyrannical, but they aren't omnipresent or omniscient - even if they try to be.
For example, I highly doubt China will be able to be stopped before they burst the AI dam. Honestly, they already have - these AI companies are just in denial because they need more capital for their proprietary, inefficient, and centralized models.
