This Is not about banning TikTok, Says Rep. Buddy Carter

      who so? but as soon as someone from china uses tiktok to steal your data like a card and take your money you’d be wishing the government protected you. not saying you add your card to tiktok but many business and indiviuals like creators that get paid.

    Thank you for proving how little you care about what your constituents. We also think you’re a liar . It’s another step in the direction of you people stealing our right to free speech that is currently happening under the umbrella of corporations rights. Michael said it. Our government does not care about us. #censorship #nofreedomofspeech This isn’t liberty.

    Too Little way too late.
    China became a 17 trillion Dollar economy and Manufacturing Superpower because of Offshoring Manufacturing policies of Bush Sr, Clinton, George W Bush and Barrack Obama.
    now the trade between countries is so interconnected that decoupling going to have major impact on world economy.

    *Make no mistake, this is all happening because of the high percentage of political dissent by Gen Zs on the platform who are openly sharing and opposing the Israeli terrorist regime and settler colony, imperialism, and capitalism. And if they weren’t succeeding at it, nobody would care.* PS. Whenever some politician says “National security,” what they mean is “Profit for the military-industrial complex, Wall. St and corporations.” It has absolutely nothing to do with benefiting YOU.

    what can a millitary controlled LLM do with the information of170 million American users
    Copilot
    In the context of military planning, large-language models (LLMs) have the potential to revolutionize decision-making processes. Let’s explore how a military-controlled LLM could utilize information about 170 million American users:

    Data Synthesis and Analysis:
    An LLM could ingest vast amounts of text and imagery data produced by the intelligence community. It would then analyze this information to identify patterns, trends, and potential threats.
    By comparing data streams, the LLM could provide insights into various aspects, such as enemy movements, social dynamics, and geopolitical developments.
    Scenario Exploration:
    Military planners could query the LLM to explore different scenarios. For instance, they might ask:
    “What if we deploy forces in Region X?”
    “How would an offensive campaign impact fuel consumption?”
    The LLM could provide alternative options based on available data, helping planners make informed decisions.
    Course of Action Assessment:
    When evaluating potential courses of action, the LLM could:
    Assess feasibility based on logistical projections.
    Identify risks and opportunities.
    Suggest novel approaches that better leverage available resources.
    This process ensures decisions are grounded in data rather than assumptions.
    Doctrine Development:
    LLMs can assist in developing adversary courses of action. For example:
    Understanding enemy behavior.
    Evaluating potential responses.
    Orienting military planners toward effective strategies1.
    Decision Support:
    Military leaders could use LLM-generated insights to:
    Optimize resource allocation.
    Enhance situational awareness.
    Mitigate risks.
    Challenges and Considerations:
    Integrating LLMs requires realigning doctrine, training, and education.
    Balancing AI-driven recommendations with human judgment remains a challenge.
    Experimentation and adaptation are essential for successful implementation12.
    In summary, a military-controlled LLM could significantly enhance decision-making by synthesizing data, providing insights, and challenging conventional assumptions. However, it must be used judiciously, considering both its capabilities and limitations.

    China always requires a partnership to conduct business within its terms. I don’t perceive any reason why the rest of the world would be any different.
