“Regulatory Jenga” is such a great metaphor for the Trump - Musk Administration!

Here applied by SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw to financial regulation.

But it applies to all policy fields, and ultimately, to the USA itself.

How many blocks can they pull, before…

Now to see if it actually gets enforced properly:

“The city [of Denver] is home to roughly 4,000 scooters and e-bikes operated by the companies Bird and Lime. The new law is an effort to keep riders off the city’s sidewalks and to ensure that they don’t abandon the vehicles in annoying places when they’re done.

The bill passed unanimously.”

The #FlintWaterCrisis began in 2014, when the city, while under emergency management from the state, switched water sources from the #Detroit Water & Sewerage Dept to the #Flint River as a cost-cutting measure. State ofcls overseeing the switch failed to ensure #corrosion-control measures were taken for the more acidic river #water. #Lead, a #neurotoxin particularly dangerous to #children, leached from aged service lines into the city's water supply as a result.

#Trump #EPA lifts emergency order on #Flint, #Michigan #water

The EPA had been monitoring stricter lead-level standards in Flint's drinking water since 2016.

The order, put in place after the #FlintWaterCrisis, was lifted after federal ofcls said the city has reached compliance with safe #DrinkingWater requirements.

In a statement, EPA Administrator #LeeZeldin called the lifting of the emergency order a major milestone for the city & federal partners.

A provision included in the Republicans' budget reconciliation bill would put a 10 year moratorium on state-level regulation of AI, threatening legislative initiatives in 45 states where lawmakers are working to protect citizens from automated decision-making, algorithmic discrimination, and deepfakes. themarkup.org/artificial-intel

Let your Congressmembers know that you oppose the measure.

Att ta med sig från IMY:s webbinarium om regulatoriska sandlådor och genAI:
- pilot-projekt är nödvändiga när man implementerar genAI för att göra rätt vägval (skynda långsamt)
- human-in-the-loop är obligatoriskt
- fortfarande osäkert om kan man träna AI-modeller med data som innehåller personuppgifter, rapporteras i oktober
- GDPR gäller även om Input-prompten inte innehåller personuppgifter
- AI ses som "medel" och är neutral (LOL)
- Skugg-AI kan falla tillbaka på arbetsgivaren.
