This educational content is designed to give working professionals who leverage AI as a tool for efficiency and productivity a competitive edge.In this episode, hosts Daphne and Fred unpack a December 13 article entitled "Nationwide Backlash Against Trump's AI Executive Order" from show producer Curt Robbins. This episode details theĀ immediate and broad national oppositionĀ to an artificial intelligence (AI) executive order signed by President Donald Trump on December 11. The executive order is designed toĀ centralize AI regulation at the federal level, specifically by blocking individual states from creating their own rules to avoid a regulatory "patchwork." The article highlights that the backlash isĀ bipartisan and includes a diverse coalitionĀ of state governorsālike California's Gavin Newsom, who condemned the order as a "con"āas well as lawmakers, unions, and child advocacy groups. Opponents are preparing aĀ multi-pronged strategyĀ involving litigation and continued state legislative action in direct defiance of the federal government. Ultimately, the source portrays the executive order as a high-stakes duel that will redefine theĀ balance of power between the states and WashingtonĀ concerning AI governance, while also representing aĀ major victory for big tech lobbying effortsĀ against state-level regulation._________________________________"It will not be AI that takes away the job of a technical writer, but rather another technical writer with deep AI skills," said Robbins.I am currently taking on new clients.
