A good example of why I think almost all laws or regulations aimed at modifying or controlling the output of AI violates the First Amendment.
@JoelKatz @8Notables So you’re saying we need to establish an internet bill of rights ? https://quantumparty.org/ibor/
@DakotaSidwell @8Notables This document is nonsense that argues for more government regulation of speech.
@JoelKatz Why don’t you just tell ppl straight out that a recession is coming and crypto will take another 5-10 years to be fully implemented instead of hyping up the sheep on a daily.
@tjmuggs1 I believe the second part of that, I don't believe the first. I do believe that a lot of the value of most cryptocurrency today comes from people speculating that there will be more speculation in the future than there is today.
@JoelKatz dont social media companies do the same and call it editorial control?
@MindOfRaemi Controlling your own property is not the same as controlling other people's property. One is an exercise of freedom, the other takes it away.
@JoelKatz So whoever controls what data the model is trained on has no checks and balances?
@SleazyWeez Exactly. When they speak through those choices, they can produce whatever expressive content they think best to say whatever they want.
@JoelKatz once a handful of corporations and bureaucrats decide what’s acceptable output, it’s not just tech oversight anymore, it’s speech control.
@XRPLGOD Yes. That's precisely how freedom of the press is supposed to work.
@JoelKatz Yea but why should AI be involved in curating search results like this in general. Much like the currently siloed internet; it seems that AI doesn’t allow for much open dialogue either. No matter how much machine learning AI is built with, it always follows the herd.
@CPATHELEGEND9 You have to curate search results somehow. AI seems to be pretty good at it.
@JoelKatz what do you think about restrictions related to intellectual property. Am I wrong to think there is no difference between my brain training on art created by others to then make my own art inspired by it, and an AI doing it?
@wowAwesomeness I agree that generally the right test for whether a person doing something with AI is lawful is whether them doing it without AI is lawful.
@JoelKatz Interesting point. If AI-generated speech is considered expression, then laws restricting it could indeed run into First Amendment issues. 🧐
@tonyXRPL It's human-generated speech. AI is just a tool humans use to express themselves more easily, more effectively, or for other reasons.
@JoelKatz What if Ai becomes dangerous to us?
@SwaggerKING19 The logic of free speech is not that speech is safe and harmless so it's okay for it to be free. The logic is that speech is dangerous and powerful and so it must not be controlled by the government.
@JoelKatz I completely agree. Writing into law that Hitler cannot be exported is like having AI preemptively burn books. The First Amendment isn't an optional add-on; it's core to the system
@Kaitlyn49954580 Of course people won't say they're doing that, they'll say they're regulating AI for safety. But it's unsafe expressive content they're worried about -- it's the worst kind of censorship.
@JoelKatz Funny that Grok lets you see it and Chat GPT doesn’t!
@YOWNVISION This is why the censors need the government to do it and also why we must stop the government.
@JoelKatz I think ai and blockchain is revolutionary. I just hope the masses don’t fall into the prison it can become. I see two roads society could follow. One is freedom entirely, the other is control disguised as freedom. Have a great week man.
@JoelKatz The basis for the argument is supposedly fake.
@JoelKatz Yet, here you are, posing away.
