In the US, you cannot ban people from using an app on their personal phone in your community. This is just ignorant. I'm not an AI bro, but you can't just have each community deciding on what constitutional rights they want to violate.

    Not sure freedom to use apps is included in the US Constitution ..

    That would likely violate the first amendment. Many of the ways you use your phone are considered forms of speech/expression. Wholesale banning of sectors of these by a government is a legitimate violation of your rights.

    Fuck AI, tho.

    AI is something that violates every posible law (moral and legal). It should be hard banned.

    In all seriousness, if someone wanted to sue that local government referring the first amendment, they would likely take the ban down.

    That said, I don’t find any actual article from a reputable news outlet describing what actually happened and what is in the city council ordinance. Likely a brief unenforceable article, which, as such, has no bearing on anyone’s life.

    A redditor mentioned they banned “self improving” ai, which, if true, would explain why it isn’t getting more coverage- this is a nothing burger.

    A redditor mentioned they banned “self improving” ai, which, if true, would explain why it isn’t getting more coverage- this is a nothing burger.

    The year is 2029, Meta's GrokBots have taken over the world. They approach Bloomington Indiana, their next target. A kindly older gentleman approaches the army on the outskirts of town.

    "Sorry boys, we banned self improving AI back in 2026, you are not allowed here."

    The robots nod and continue onward, parting around the outskirts of town like a river flowing around a rock.

    The town is saved. It becomes the last bastion of humanity within 6 months.

    Banning it outright is ableist, there's no need include the right to use certain apps in the Constitution.
