A few decades ago there was a ban on pornography. But what was pornography. The Supreme Court said you would know it when you saw it. Did not work well.
Now we are banning AI. Do we know it when we see it? Hardly. As I had noted before we really cannot define AI. It can be a gimmick up large language model. You ask a question, the system cranks through billions of phrases and pumps out the probabilistically closest one or ones. It then continue with a conversation now learning from the originator. Perhaps it is an image recognition system collecting EHR data from millions of prior patients and coming up with a diagnosis and treatment plan. Albeit based on old records.
I hear "experts" opining on the dangers of AI without any attempt to define it. The logic they use befuddles me. Their approach is per-historic, and if there were a Socrates they would be crushed in their ignorance.
So beware, the New York State legislature is composed of cro magnon species who expertise is twofold: telling people how to think and act, and raising taxes to levels to suppress any human advancements.
