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

There’s plenty to criticise, but this particular take is fucking moronic.
Everyone grew up before insert current new tech.
I grew up before cell phones, PC’s, internet, streaming, torrenting, etc, etc, and I bet a years salary I could explain all of those things in pretty good detail and many, many, many, many more than you, extemporaneously, (i.e. at the drop of a hat) , while drunk and high.
Would you say the same about LBJ, who is THE reason we have NASA, moon landings, and all the derivative tech (including the internet you’re currently using)?
Pick a dozen other valid reasons to criticise him, this take isn’t.
