Joseph Gordon-Levitt in Utah urging lawmakers to pass a bill requiring AI companies to publish child safety plans: “These amoral AI businesses have proven they are incapable of prioritizing the well-being of kids.”

    He’s right. But the government will not protect our children. I had women and men making sexually suggestive comments about my four-year-old son on an innocent photo of him on Facebook. I no longer post him because of the very real fear of how AI can be misused.

  2. He’s always been so brilliant and well-spoken and down to earth. I’m glad he’s able to use his brain and his influence to work on causes that benefit people he loves.

    Poor fella doesn’t know that children are obsolete. People are having less of them, soon won’t have any, and then breeding without express state permission will be outlawed unless you have genetic qualities the rich festishize.

    I absolutely love how he has used his platform to push back against AI companies and tries as much as he can to put out their demerits for all to see

    Love the actor, love the guy

    That’s exactly why I hate the tech evangilists so much. Tech evolves way too fast before there is any safety and regulation.

    I still remember how Facebook became popular before there was ways to keep kids safe. And then a lot of us grew not only addicted, but lost a sense of self-worth through like counting, people glamming up their life, cyber bullying etc. Kids targetted by predators online. And then cambridge analytica.

    We need to actually hold these technocrats accountable and punish them with way more than slaps on the wrist.

    I’m glad he’s speaking out against this stuff instead of making another Don Jon.

    I used to work at an educational publisher that was an early adopter of AI. Even seemingly “good” companies DNGAF about people or the future. This needs to be legislated. 

  8. These AI businesses are owned by billionaires, all that money and they still are only interested in sex.

    He’s so right. What have these companies considered regarding the harm they can cause? What guardrails do they have in place? I’m going to say none, so it’s time for someone else to step in and put some in place.

    Well, I think he is solidified in my top 3 favorite actors. I appreciate his advocacy towards this.
