Interesting how the trajectory of the USA has changed since Citizen's United was decided. When and how are we going to fix the rationalization that immortal and unaccountable entities aren't people. AI legislation? I can dream of electric sheep.

I don't think other democracies have allowed travesties like rich people funding elections (aka Citizen's United). It's possible the US will be able to stop it, but the insidious impact of that wealth feels like it is unending.

But at some point the people get fed up with the same corporate message and do something crazy like elect Trump.

I feel like there's a limit to how much corporations can influence voters, the same way there's a limit to how much moviegoers will keep paying to see the same corporate movie over and over.

AI is controlled by the richest corporations.

How do you think AI would legislate, if AI legislation would become reality?

I meant human legislation of AI, (and other immortal unaccountable entities like corporations to boot) not the legislation by AI.
