Lacking any sense of irony, the very next point states LLM developers should ensure their systems are "objective and free from top-down ideological bias".
Par for the course for Trump and his cronies, but the world should know what kind of AI the US wants to build.
As stated, I've tried rallying in my area and nobody seems interested. I'm also at a disadvantage if I just go at it alone because I'm not white.
