"I Learned It By Watching You" Anti-Drug PSA

We're going to create a really bad AI and get upset by that fact only to discover that ... we all made it that way. ▶ this video

> As a european, a find this downright insulting and imperialist. Suggesting Europe go literally copy the language of American documents was poor form, granted. As to the broader issue, though, I worry there's less room for polite deference. The situation is basically equivalent to a European citizen calling me up and asking me a question, asking if I know something, and the European government insisting that I lie. An offline analogue would be if I had a friend in Germany asking for dating advice. The friend might ask, "I can't get a sense of if this is a good idea or not. You know Jeffrey, has he ever, say, raped or murdered anyone?" "Why, no, I have no information to suggest Mr. Dahmer is not a fine upstanding citizen," I'd be forced to reply of the infamous Milwaukee Cannibal. I don't feel like a foreign government should be allowed to compel me to lie to its citizens, even by omission. I've heard Stephen Fry rather charmingly suggest that Americans maintain an unhealthy obsession with free speech. Typically, that man can convince me any premise through simple assertion. But on this, I live up to my American stereotype, and stubbornly differ on the gravity of the issue. Mostly, I find the ground sufficiently covered by Milton's "Areopagitica" and Mill's "nearly everything." Speaker's corner seems a fun European embrace of the concept. I'm not sure where in Europe you're from, but I'm sometimes surprised at concern from the UK. It reminds me of this cheesy anti-drug PSA: [

Ironic that a post designed to attempt to rid the world of obfuscation and confusion has a UI that commits the cardinal sin of auto loading the signature list so that it's virtually impossible to get to the footer without letting all the signatures load. :) Reminds me of getting classes on water conservation in High School only to walk outside of class and see that they are watering the High School's parking lot. How very often the government evokes the classic hypocritical parent of the old anti-drug campaign commercial of the 1980's where the son finally breaks and yells at his Father "I learned it by watching you Dad!" ▶ this video
