“In the bad country, they put you in jail just for using other country’s probability algorithm.”

I bet OpenAI wrote the bill he is proposing.
- When your understanding of the world comes from a 10 year old Tim & Eric bit
Bill Gates rn: wait you can just get the government to ban an open source competitor to your software??!

Boomers who don't understand anything try to pass bill that can't be enforced in any way. More at 11
This is as stupid was the supposed law that China is putting people in jail for using VPN.
You can take my illegal tensors from my cold dead flash storage

Old folk and technology
Gerentocratic states of America really showing their expertise.
