Boondoggle The Hot, New Plan to Bribe States Into Deregulating Artificial Intelligence AI infrastructure money in exchange for an AI Wild West. Pat Garofalo Jun 24, 2025 Wielding phony concerns about a “patchwork of state laws,” big tech interests and their allies in the federal government are attempting to eliminate in one swift stroke a host of state or local laws that, for example: require the disclosure of the use of AI in health care and financial decisions; prevent landlords from using algorithms to collude on rental prices; protect against AI discrimination in the job application process; restrict the tactics social media platforms use to addict users; or bar the use of digitally altered images and videos in elections. And with its broad brush, it’s easy to see proponents of this language wielding it to invalidate laws around gambling, financial services, and who knows what else. (emphasis added)
It’s pretty obvious this is a scheme based on pseudoscience eugenics religious ideology, where they want to make AI the God that controls the “invisible hand of the market” for the techno-rapture. Our government system is being taken over by this bizarre political cult based in apocalyptic science fiction mixed with religion, and it will cost lives, and those people don’t care, because they think people dying is the ideal.
My letter to reps:
The big bill’s prohibition on AI regulation is unacceptable and so is any financial incentive to bribe or penalize states and citizens to put up with no protections against disastrous and shoddy tech being used against us. I want strong laws with extreme penalties for not disclosing the use of AI in any services or products on the market. If there’s AI involved, companies and businesses should have to disclose that weakness to the people paying money for products and services. And companies that don’t comply should have jail time involved for the people working at the company who failed to disclose and make this so transparent and apparent that there could be no mistake that people are informed.
