I would not benefit from an outright ban so that would be too heavy handed. On the other hand - something has to be done. If anything else it's proof the people do have the power to convince their representatives that these affairs matter and we are paying attention.
I wouldn't be to quick to dismiss this as only political theater.
Had to stop there. Annoying. I can't stand AI use for writing. It makes any otherwise great article feel so disingenuous.
Many things on the web use Yandex.
I say this as someone who has mental health issues, has experience loss of important people around me because of mental health issues, and probably need more therapy than the universe could reasonably provide me.
AI is directly and indirectly uprooting every facet of society. Money, energy, food, housing, medicine. Cultural revolutions are not pretty, the true outcomes are felt by those who are the winners and losers. It very much feels like a rich eats all scenario is playing out right now. I'd wager that's because it is.

I don't know what the right answer is, but having used Niri/Wayland vs. GNOME vs. Windows vs. Mac... I will never go back to a non-tiling desktop and a none-kb driven workflow for desktop window management.
Can we move on to more important and substantive topics? Something something files.
The service that encrypts the data should be the ONLY service that holds the private key to decrypt, and therefore the only service that can process the decrypted data.
Theo's content boils down to the same boring formula. 1. Whatever buzzword headline is trending at the time 2. Immediate sponsored ad that is supposed to make you sympathize with Theo cause he "vets" his sponsors. 3. The man makes you listen to a "that totally happened" story that he somehow always involved himself personally. 4. Man serves you up an ad for his t3.chat and how it's the greatest thing in the world and how he should be paid more for his infinite wisdom. 5. A rag on Claude or OpenAI (whichever is leading at the time) 6. 5-10 minutes of paraphrasing an article without critical thought or analysis on the video topic.
I used to enjoy his content when he was still in his Ping era, but it's clear hes drunken the YT marketer kool-aid. I've moved on, his content gets recommend now and again, but I can't entertain his non-sense anymore.
The notion that it's a gentlemanly tradition means nothing. Codify it into law if releasing tax returns is such a big issue. In this case particular, I don't think the leaked tax returns have produced the effect that was desired, so it seems silly that this is what it has resolved to. I wonder if it ever mattered at all, given what we know about Trump nowadays.
Ultimately it's the rich people on the hill pulling all strings, the rest of us are just left to hold the bag.
I do the obvious checks like tests and spin up a dev instance to make sure the feature works like I want it too, but very rarely am I reviewing every line of code these days.
By luck and happenstance, I tuned into the Omacon conference this morning and my perspective on personal computing very much aligns with theirs. Would encourage a least watch the kickoff keynote if the VODs drop.
I am only doing single project workflows, but with Z.ai I feel like it opens a whole new door to parallel workflows without hitting usage limits.

I've always wondered what these flagship AI companies are doing behind the scenes to setup guardrails. Golden Gate Claude[1] was a really interesting... I haven't seen much additional research on the subject, at the least open-facing.
