Ah, another brilliant AI kill switch.

Just what my weary soul needed: US politicians proposing a bill enabling the government to shut down rogue AI models that threaten public safety. This grand legislative band-aid promises to shield the unsuspecting public from out-of-control artificial intelligence simply by pulling a metaphorical plug. To safeguard our own infrastructure from these runaway systems, we are left once again pretending that bureaucratic power switches can magically stop code from running once it goes off the rails.
