No solution except regulation. I cannot think of one. Hopefully that is just a failure of my imagination, meaning someone else can figure out a fix.
Regulation of technical anything is such a series of ongoing disasters in the US. We have what, < 4% of our Legislators with any technical knowledge? Time to go setup my V-chip.
The Academy French (Academe Francaise) sole purpose is to prevent diluting their language with non-french words. Like transistor. And radio. Which are brilliantly converted to transistor and radio. But in French.
So, regardless of their lack of success they will continue on this path. Indeed, they have been protecting their language for the past four centuries. Without a doubt they have every intention of doing such for the next four.
C'est du protectionnisme. The very heart of France.
Everybody knows that knuckle-draggers have trouble flopping their big hands on teeny tiny keyboards. The e-passports save all that effort.
Of course, if the CBP isn't filled with fat fingered knuckle-draggers we have a different problem. Either they lack the conviction of their stated purpose with e-paasports or they lack the ability to understand that they are failing their primary mission.
Any phrase that suggests sex, sexual favors, well - just turn them into the feds. Get their real name and go have a talk with DHS, local cops, the FBI, or the border patrol. Well maybe not the last one.
Looking forward to their tears. Not a silver lining but better than nothing.
Widely share their publications, except you will need a license for specific 'words'. Which will no doubt be more expensive if you should ever want to use a short bit of text.
The drums of war, war on what? Well now, that's a different problame *cough* PROBLEM altogether. The peaches are trying to put out their flaming problems by making everything illegal. Pretty sure this is an epic fail waiting to happen. Barely waiting. Talk about the Streisand Effect. Now every Russian patriot will be swooping down.
I like Oregon. We vote by mail. Also, we can vote early which stops many of the robo-calls re a vote.
I've been reading SF since the early 60's. There are few AI/robots as sentient beings. The vast majority are clearly machinery.
Coming from a life of programming, most are just machines. I would have to classify most as not actually AI. The books written in the last ten years seem to call everything that appears to be advanced programming AI. Which, they are not.
Asimov robot series, started in 1950. Clarke not that noted for robots, unless you consider HAL the slightly nutjob, and very murderous assistant. That was far from AI. At best it was holographic neural networks designed to assist the victims. The first attempt was in 1948.
Funny, you see Asimov started the iRobot stories while I was a toddler. Was that before you were born? I read them before high school, and again as an adult as well as when he added to the series.
They were much closer than quite a few of the newer stories I've read lately. However, only one was "artificial intelligence" in my view. The Bicentienial man.
The rest were explaining how to work within the framework of the three laws.
It's like trying to pick a disguise to be inconspicuous in committing a crime, and dressing up like Hitler. People are going to notice, and they're going to remember.
I think that is good enough for a LOL ranking all by itself. Voe for Mike Masnick!
I've been reading a few SciFi books, with space battles, etc. and I can say that AI isn't in any of them. The fire control computer is an AI, except it is just a fire/target control program.
We don't even have the beginnings of AI. The machine learning is still ham fisted and offers more brute force than actual intelligence. Either carefully selected learning or
There have been great strides recently in machine learning (go for instance). But the distance from even the best of those to AI is measured with sticks we don't even have yet.
