MODERATORS
I don't think this really is idiocy. AI/ML can definitely be a powerful tool for things that rely on analysis and pattern matching with a ton of data, and cyber security is one of those things.
And it's definitely possible to implement it in a secure fashion. I haven't looked into it, but I'm sure NIST is developing guidelines on hardening AI systems.
These idiots are literally arguing that regulating AI is what's holding the country back. They aren't interested in "safe" or "secure"...they want a brick they can throw on the gas pedal, so they can close their eyes and take a nap.
If you think this administration is capable of that, without wasting a ton of resources and making a huge mess out of it that will haunt future leaders, you’re fooling yourself.
If smart people were behind this I would agree with you. There’s a lot of legitimate non-llm AI use cases you can pursue here.
However a lot of the industry right is shoving LLMs into their products like kids with a hammer desperate to find a nail. All because snake oil salesman on LinkedIn are saying “AI FUTURE GO BRRRR”. And I have a feeling that’s the level of thought going into this proposal.
I think the people who would ultimately carry out the proposal and write the special publication for it would do it right, though. I've been through several 3PAO audits, and that shit is brutal.
