White House Shocker: Kamala Harris Was Just Named the New… (msn.com)

Using the word ' intelligence ' and 'Kamala Harris' in the same sentence is an oxymoron.

Harris is set to meet with the CEO's of companies that are "at the forefront of AI innovation" to discuss the possible pitfalls of the tech's development. Included in the talks will be the leaders of OpenAI, Google, Microsoft and Anthropic.

She did such a great job as the border czar that she is now tasked with protecting the planet from the risks of AI . That should work out well . Clueless Joe is signaling the planet that yes the US takes the threat seriously .</sarc> What could go wrong ?

You would hope that Biden would have chosen someone of significant intelligence to oversee the problems with AI. Sadly, that seems not to be the case. It's about on the level of the Navy using a drag queen for recruitment efforts.

They were SW of us. We just got spurts and spatters of rain. Then sun. Then rain. Mattie the Cat was lazing in an open window and got spattered by a sudden squall. The tv weather guys were having a field day with special maps plus descriptions they had learned in weather classes.

Kam the Sham evidently modelled he time in office after the fictional Vice President in the HBO TV show 'VEEP' .
I was not aware of the show . If I were I probably would've picked up on the obvious similarities .But I do not subscribe to HBO.

In the show Julia Louis-Dreyfus is Vice President Selena Meyer . Evidenly she is obsessed with creating a legacy for herself.
The similarities are obvious. She was a former Senator who became VP and wants to become Pres. She had been the front-runner in the primaries but had to bow out. .
The Pres relegates her to meaningless or non-winning assignments and otherwise ignores her,

I found a YouTube video that clearly demonstrates that Kam the Sham is modelling her role in a manner very similar to the character in the show.

Jamie Dimon boss at JP Morgan Chase had some things to say about AI in his annual letter to investors.

"While we do not know the full effect or the precise rate at which AI will change our business — or how it will affect society at large — we are completely convinced the consequences will be extraordinary and possibly as transformational as some of the major technological inventions of the past several hundred years," ....."Think the printing press, the steam engine, electricity, computing and the Internet, among others."

Who could stand to profit more from a good dose of intelligence than the VP? She is, after all, the woman who thought the NCAA had only started using tournament brackets for the ladies in 2022. Maybe one of those AI computers could become a sort of adviser to her.

Had to revisit this because JD Vance spoke about AI at the AI Action Summit in Paris .

Just the refresh . Kam the Scam was made AI Czar . When explaining AI she said

AI is kind of a fancy thing. First of all it's two letters. It means 'Artificial Intelligence.'

Here are some of JDs comments

Our administration, the Trump administration, believes that AI will have countless revolutionary applications in economic innovation, job creation, national security, healthcare, free expression, and beyond. To restrict its development now will not only unfairly benefit incumbents in this space, but it would also mean paralyzing one of the most promising technologies we have seen in generations.

With that in mind, I'd like to make four main points today.

Number one: This administration will ensure that American AI technology continues to be the gold standard worldwide, and we are the partner of choice for other, foreign countries and businesses as they expand their own use of AI.

Number two: We believe that excessive regulation of the AI sector could kill a transformative industry just as it's taking off. We will make every effort to encourage pro-growth AI policies, and I like seeing that deregulatory flavor making its way into many of the conversations at this conference.

Number three: We feel very strongly that AI must remain free from ideological bias and that American AI will not be co-opted into a tool for authoritarian censorship.

And finally, number four: The Trump administration will maintain a pro-worker growth path for AI so it can be a potent tool for job creation in the United States. I appreciate Prime Minister Modi's point. AI, I really believe, will facilitate and make people more productive.

It is not going to replace human beings. It will never replace human beings. I think too many of the leaders in the AI industry, when they talk about this fear of replacing workers, really miss the point. AI, we believe, is going to make us more productive, more prosperous, and more free.

The United States of America is the leader in AI, and our administration plans to keep it that way. The U.S. possesses all components across the full AI stack, including advanced semiconductor design, frontier algorithms, and, of course, transformational applications.

The computing power this stack requires is integral to advancing AI technology. And to safeguard America's advantage, the Trump administration will ensure that the most powerful AI systems are built in the U.S. with American-designed and manufactured chips.
