If passed states can no longer enact laws for transparency, child safety, privacy, environmental protection etc.

I split AI into 3 non-mutually exclusive types (see Table 1 above): displacement (harmful), enhancement (beneficial), and/or replacement (neutral) of human cognitive labour. More later possibly, but see Tables 2 to 4 (attached or here: arxiv.org/pdf/2507.19960) for the worked through examples. 2/n

The new American economy is just Gambling and AI. No actual production of value. Siphoning money, thought, focus & culture to enrich the few.
Gambling is prediction with added stakes.
Deep Learning AI models are predictors: guess the outcome given a current state.
