The executive order comes after a series of non-binding agreements with AI companies.

The order has eight goals: to create new standards for AI safety and security, protect privacy, advance equity and civil rights, stand up for consumers, patients, and students, support workers, promote innovation and competition, advance US leadership in AI technologies, and ensure the responsible and effective government use of the technology.

    You do know that Biden didn’t personally draft this himself, right?

    It delegates the specifics to agencies with relevant expertise. That’s how the executive branch works.

      Oh, sorry, for a minute there I thought he was the commander in chief and that the policies enacted under his supervision were to reflect on him directly

      Silly me.

        That was pretty silly. Especially given that “commander-in-chief” refers to his position in the U.S. military structure and has no bearing on his legislation and domestic policies.

        There’s a big difference between “reflecting on him” and actually being the one to write the policy. I don’t see why the former is an issue.
