Shit like this boils my blood. Policymakers should focus on writing laws that actually help people instead of muddling around with technology they don't understand. If anyone doesn't understand just how ridiculous a proposal to regulate "AI" is, pull back the veil a tiny bit on that summary to see what the author is really saying:
> Opensource math is too dangerous and can't be left as it is. It's scary that everyone can just create math and we should make laws regarding this glaring issue. Proprietary math is more accountable, transparent and easier to fix than opensource math. Opensource math is more bias-prone by it's nature.
Plainly nonsense and I hope this worm doesn't get anywhere near a lawmaker's ear.
