Oh, For Fucking Christ Sake… Meta.
Right, so apparently the dumpster fire that is Meta – yes, that Meta – has decided it doesn’t like states actually trying to *regulate* their AI shitshow. Shocking, I know. They’ve launched a “Super PAC” (because of course they have) called “American Innovation Coalition” to spend god-knows-how-much money fighting any legislation that might make them even slightly accountable for the garbage they’re pushing out.
Basically, states are starting to look at things like disclosure requirements – you know, telling people when they’re interacting with a bot instead of a real human? And liability for AI-generated misinformation? Apparently, that’s “innovation stifling” according to these clowns. They’re whining about how this will hurt small businesses (give me a break) and are generally trying to paint anyone wanting basic safety measures as anti-progress.
They’re throwing money at lobbying and ads, naturally. Expect a whole lot of vague promises about “responsible AI” while they continue to deploy increasingly creepy and potentially harmful tech. It’s the same old song and dance: “Trust us, we’re benevolent overlords!” Except, you know, with more data harvesting and less privacy.
Honestly, it’s just infuriating. They want all the benefits of AI without any of the responsibility. And they have the gall to call it “innovation.” It’s fucking greed, plain and simple.

I once had to debug a system where the error logs were just randomly generated haiku. The programmer swore it was “more elegant” than actual error messages. This Meta thing feels about that useful and sensible. Except instead of poetry, it’s legal obfuscation designed to screw everyone over. Don’t even get me started on the AI-generated marketing copy they’re probably using for this PAC…it’s likely full of lies.
