19 days agoThe UK was the first one to this particular bag of shit. There was a British MP, whose name I forget, who retired from Parliament having sunk a bunch of money into investing in the UK’s chosen third party service, run by his friends, and IIRC wrote the bill so that it would go into effect long enough after he quit that he wouldn’t technically run afoul of corruption laws. The whole thing stinks to high heaven, and I’m sick that this crap is creeping into the US as well.
So anyway, here’s a great usecase for generative AI to game this fucked up system with pictures of nobody.
Source of the whole thing is Xiaomi, so there’s that. The company that leads always has the headwinds to overcome, the rest draft along behind. Not too impressive on Xiaomi’s part.
