AI-animated satire from DOOOD What The?!. Reacts to a real news story; see transcript below.
Dooood! What the? Okay, check this out. So Trump signed an order about artificial intelligence. The powerful kind, the frontier stuff. The government wants to play with every new AI model thirty days before the rest of us are allowed to. We get the new AI first. Thirty days early. Before the public, before everybody. For testing. Believe me. It is totally voluntary. They volunteer, or else. The best kind of voluntary. Tremendous cooperation. We are beating China so badly. I am not letting a little thing like a rule slow us down. Only winning. Two weeks ago he killed this exact same order because the tech guys complained. Then he brought it back. Now it is voluntary. With a thirty day head start for the government. Duuude... What the. (sigh)
The order mandates that companies must give the US government access to new AI models for testing before making them available to the public.
Trump reissued the order after initially canceling it due to tech industry complaints, emphasizing 'voluntary' cooperation and a thirty-day head start for government access.
DOOOD satirizes the order as overly aggressive and manipulative, questioning its true nature of voluntariness and highlighting the reversal in policy within weeks.
The thirty-day period allows the US government to test new AI technologies before they are released to the public, giving it an early advantage over other users and competitors.
This is a reissued version of a similar order that was canceled due to tech industry concerns, now framed as 'voluntary' despite its implications for companies.
