Not ominous, threatening, and somewhat juvenile IMO.


What are ramifications of false advertising of AI capabilities in medicine? Policing? Mass surveillance? Education? Traffic control? Mass transit? Farming? Shipping? Law? News?

Death. Mass death. Poverty. Disease. Mass destruction. Famine.

Brush away these warnings to move fast and break things if you (Royal you) want. Hopefully, you won’t cause mass suffering, but if you do I hope you’re made an example of.

When the ramifications are great so must be the controls.


I dont disagree, I was expressing that I find their tone surprisingly “yee haw, we’ll getcha’” for an org that wields such power and responsibility.


It's like something a small town sheriff would say in a press conference. The difference is, he'd probably be talking about violent crimes and speaking from the heart. This is a three-letter-agency of unelected law makers threatening who-knows-what over violations of ambiguous statutes they created.


Considering who said it and their track record, I don't need a machine to predict that I might (or might not) be fined 1% of the swimming pool full of solid gold coins that I'll be swimming in thanks to my false claims, to deter others from following the same path.


Nothing juvenile about it.
