Of course that logic requires that executives actually be held accountable... for instance, due to illegal behavior on the part of their company...
Yes...
Holding people accountable, means we have to hold people accountable...
The solution to not holding people accountable, isn't to make it harder to hold people accountable. The solution is actually holding the right people accountable.
I'm glad we can get on the same page
I mean, yeah, I'm not arguing with your conclusions, I just think you're overly optimistic.
Nobody is talking about putting Altman in jail for violations of the Computer Fraud & Abuse Act, even though that's exactly what should be happening. Instead they've got investors lining up around the block to buy a piece of it.
You seem a bit defensive though.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and Oval right now...
Do I really need to explain why they're not doing anything?
You can't figure that one out on you're own?
Midterms are in a month...
Because midterms are in a month, and a shit ton of people are pushing really hard that nothing can ever be done so it's pointless to try.
Be a doomer after midterms and I won't give a fuck. But right now trump and the AI techbros are spending a shit ton of money to convince the left not to vote.
Don't do their work for them.
Who said anything about not voting?
