Something we don’t talk about enough is how the Age of Trump will impact the next generation of politics. To older politicians, the last 10 years represents an aberration from normal, and they can maintain that fiction because it represents 1/5 of their political lifespan. Not so for the youth.

So you’re telling me the Wizard of Oz presented itself as a towering force of overwhelming technology, only to be unmasked as just some guy, off-screen?
So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.
If true, then fucking yikes.

Unacceptable. Call your senators and rep and tell them that states must have the right to regulate "A.i." and this clause has to come out of this bill. If they're Republicans, tell them STATES RIGHTS!!! If they're Democrats, tell them STOP HELPING "A.I." SCAMMERS.

Don’t be confused: The Senate Republican AI language includes the EXACT SAME AI moratorium as the House bill. Almost word-for-word. This is a complete, 10-year ban on state AI regulation. Period.
