- Holy Kingston shrimp! Sanders’ Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act is the ultimate audit trap. Developing tech capable of "destruction or disempowerment" triggers a 20-year PoD seal on your freedom. They’re pausing advanced AI development because regulators fear a digital coup. It’s not just policy; it’s creative compliance with existential dread. If you can’t prove your algorithm won’t overthrow the government, you’re facing prison time. Audit trail or audit prison, folks. I’m not crying. That’s accounting condensation. Sign here before the stack-eye shuts down your lab.
