   This is a bellwether of where calls for "AI" regulation are at in Aotearoa;

   "AI is being hyped by major tech companies worldwide, who often overstate the capabilities of their products. And for every positive article or press release, there is another news story highlighting AI harms."

   *But*;

   "We all want New Zealand to prosper. And we agree that AI has a major role to play. But it must be used in a safe and responsible manner."

     @strypey i highly doubt any politician understands what they are even calling AI, let alone is qualified to begin regulating it in a meaningful way. so far what we've seen is regulations and "alignment" arguments just amounting to "protect the control grid/brand" more than "rework the economy around exponentially increasing job loss" (or, well, the xrisks)

     you still believe in AGI-driven job losses?

     @kuteboicoder @strypey corpos are tripping over themselves to fire as many employees as possible with sub-sophonts, so.
