Yesterday in our symposium, Shawn Howard—of American Vets in Defense of Democracy renown—said that what he found most depressing about our conversation was his sense that people were losing faith in our institutions’ ability to address our problems.
I said that I’d lost faith, because manifestly, our institutions are incapable of addressing our problems. The example that immediately came to my mind was Congress’s failure to utter so much as a squeak of concern upon learning that—as the Washington Post puts it—”AI models are breaking out of their cages.”
Any competent government, I said—you can watch me saying this here—would be doing something about this.
