America wants AI that doesn't care about misinformation, DEI, and climate change (lemmy.ca)

The Trump administration recently published "America's AI Action Plan". One of the first policy actions from the document is to eliminate references to misinformation, diversity, equity, inclusion, and climate change from the NIST's AI Risk Framework.

Lacking any sense of irony, the very next point states LLM developers should ensure their systems are "objective and free from top-down ideological bias".

Par for the course for Trump and his cronies, but the world should know what kind of AI the US wants to build.

The whole "non DEI" / "DEI hostile" stance seems so weird. I get that the basis is "you should not hire someone because of their origin/look/orientation/whatever", and, maybe, why not. I hire people based on qualifications usually. How did it turn into "you should fire these people".

…that's a rhetorical question. I know that that first part was just a pretense, but still, how much of a morons must people be to follow that.
