America wants AI that doesn't care about misinformation, DEI, and climate change (lemmy.ca)

The Trump administration recently published "America's AI Action Plan". One of the first policy actions from the document is to eliminate references to misinformation, diversity, equity, inclusion, and climate change from the NIST's AI Risk Framework.

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.

The Trump administration is just a straight-up Captain Planet villain at this point.

"America" != "The U.S."

Its like saying "The French [edit: population] want <something form a France PM press release> [edit: because ] "

Edit: fixed bad example and made the argument clearer.

That doesn't make any sense, America and The US are both shortened versions of the full name of the country, and both largely refer to the government.

"Americans" refers to the people, "The Americans" to me is talking about the government again (depending on context), or its military or something.

So if someone says, "Americans want X," I assume there are polls to back that up, whereas "The Americans want X" implies an official press release. At least that's how I've used those terms.

Americans voted for this. You can argue about the minutiae and the process, but that's the gist of it.
