Highlights: The White House issued draft rules today that would require federal agencies to evaluate and constantly monitor algorithms used in health care, law enforcement, and housing for potential discrimination or other harmful effects on human rights.

Once in effect, the rules could force changes in US government activity dependent on AI, such as the FBI’s use of face recognition technology, which has been criticized for not taking steps called for by Congress to protect civil liberties. The new rules would require government agencies to assess existing algorithms by August 2024 and stop using any that don’t comply.

Hell fucking yea. Who is this Biden guy?

[–] OniiFam@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Another W from Biden and extreme leftist will still say he did nothing. 😔

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 years ago

Nah, if this sticks, my extreme leftist ass will sing his praises.

[–] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Extremes hate everything, so it doesn’t really matter what they think.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As an extreme leftist, this rings hollow.

[–] Sloogs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A lot of my leftist friends will still let the bad be the enemy of any sort of good whatsoever it seems. It's exhausting as a leftist when you can never be outraged enough for other leftists.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

This i can sympathize with. I do not reach the violently inappropriate level of outrage cultivated and appreciated in this country.

He did something: add national security loopholes

The worst possible offenders aren't really being reined in by this executive order.

Dark Brandon is Awake.

I wish he was around more often than Sleepy Joe. 😔

Sleepy Joe is just a manufactured slur by a demented idiot supported only by second-long video clips of Biden between going to meetings and making changes.
