Not sure freedom to use apps is included in the US Constitution ..

[-] Kewlio250@lemmy.zip 65 points 4 days ago

That would likely violate the first amendment. Many of the ways you use your phone are considered forms of speech/expression. Wholesale banning of sectors of these by a government is a legitimate violation of your rights.

Fuck AI, tho.

Tell that to all the places that banned porn.

Originally porn was protected by the first amendment.

There's a whole movie about this called the people versus Larry flynt that kind of explains why.

Well, you see, something something God.

My god can beat up your god. Their name is "God That Beats Up Other Gods." Therefore you have to do what I say. I even got a note to that effect

Religious Leader Zealots: "Yes, of course we are."

AI is something that violates every posible law (moral and legal). It should be hard banned.

In all seriousness, if someone wanted to sue that local government referring the first amendment, they would likely take the ban down.

That said, I don’t find any actual article from a reputable news outlet describing what actually happened and what is in the city council ordinance. Likely a brief unenforceable article, which, as such, has no bearing on anyone’s life.

A redditor mentioned they banned “self improving” ai, which, if true, would explain why it isn’t getting more coverage- this is a nothing burger.

The year is 2029, Meta's GrokBots have taken over the world. They approach Bloomington Indiana, their next target. A kindly older gentleman approaches the army on the outskirts of town.

"Sorry boys, we banned self improving AI back in 2026, you are not allowed here."

The robots nod and continue onward, parting around the outskirts of town like a river flowing around a rock.

The town is saved. It becomes the last bastion of humanity within 6 months.

It's basically just writing a letter with extra steps

[-] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 1 points 3 days ago

The output technically belongs to the AI company, does the first amendment apply to non human entities? If it does I don't think anyone should be supporting that application ..

Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
