The White House is preparing to issue an executive order as soon as Friday that enlists the power of the federal government to block states from regulating artificial intelligence, according to four people familiar with the matter and a leaked draft of the order obtained by POLITICO.
The draft document, confirmed as authentic by three people familiar with the matter, would launch several efforts to challenge state AI laws — including an “AI Litigation Task Force” run by the Department of Justice.

Guys, this has nothing to do with slavery. It’s about protecting the states rights - MAGA
An EO to overrule state legislation? Is that even remotely legal? Can’t the states just tell him to fuck off. The courts aren’t going to throw state law out the window because the president says they are bad laws. It would take an act of Congress to do that and Congress failed in the attempt earlier this year.
I think he can write whatever unenforceable executive orders he wants. Enforcing them could be illegal, which would make them unenforceable executive orders.
It’s not illegal per se - it’s just not how EOs work.
It’s also illegal. It’s a violation of the 10th amendment. Powers not delegated to the federal government and not prohibited to the states are reserved for the states or the people. States have every right to make laws restricting the use of AI within their own borders.

But the proposed EO has no power to do anything so it doesn’t really break the 10th.
(also neither a lawyer nor a constitutional scholar so this is only based on my very basic understanding. Fully prepared to hang my head in shame if someone more informed explains how I’m wrong)
If he enlists his agencies to, through legal actions, office raids, and city occupation to enforce his “powerless” EO, presumably the 10th starts being meaningful.
Fair point. I should have asked if it was ‘legally sound’ rather than just if it was legal.
Wasn’t trying to undercut you or anything - it just as absurd as you’ve said.
EOs are just the busywork the sycophants have given Trump to keep him happily busy marking up pages with his sharpie.

It may end up depending on the supreme court’s opinion.
These fucks cannot be consistent if their lives depended on it. “StAtEs RiGhTs” unless: fascism. Obvious exception.
If it sucks ass, makes people’s lives worse, or makes parasites richer, you can damn well expect this so-called government to okay it.
Fuck
SMALL GOVERNMENT! - GOP
States right! But only when WE want to use them…
So AI ICE agent identification is OK?
Who cares do it anyway
Just pumping more air into the bubble.
Sadly, I think this is the entire reason for this. Anyone with a brain can see that people are buying favors from Trump left and right, and it is to the benefit of every AI-reliant overbloated company (nvidia included) to keep that bubble growing instead of risking a pop.
There’s that MAGA micromanaging.
I’m pretty certain that won’t work, but what do I know.
In the end, the technical limitations of AI are going to be the real regulation. As much as the grifters of the world will not admit it, you can’t shove a useless technology down peoples throat at hundreds of billions dollars of expense and expect it to have a financial return for you.
Not before the destroy the environment though
And the economy…
and my axe.
and my bow.
And my hope for humanity.
Polygraphs and drug dogs are both proven to be bullshit and yet they still have the force of law in many places.
Not in the US for polygraphs.
To watch firsthand, the people who’s jobs it is to protect us, salivate over the idea of feeding us to the wolves while scary, is downright terrifying.
