My LinkedIn feed is 80% tech bros complaining about the EU AI Act, not a single one of whom is willing to be drawn on which exact clause it is they don’t like.
Yes… it’s so bad that I just never log in until I receive a DM, and even then I login, check it, if it’s useful I warn people I don’t use LinkedIn anymore then log out.
Not a terrible resource when you’re actually looking for a job. But that’s because all the automated HR intakes are a dumpster fire, more than anything headhunters bring in value.
That’s not actually the case for most companies though. The only time you’d need a full time lawyer on it is if the thing you want to do with AI is horrifically unethical, in which case fuck your little startup.
It’s easy to comply with regulations if you’re already behaving responsibly.
That’s true with many regulations. The quiet part that they’re trying to avoid saying out loud is that behaving ethically and responsibly doesn’t earn them money.

Oh, so just like with the GDPR, cool.
Ok, my main complaint about GDPR is that I had to implement that policy on a legacy codebase and Im pretty sure I have trauma from that.

Incredibly so, yes.
Skill issue.
My point is higher than yours, get on my level

I even ignore DMs on linkedIn, they’re mostly head hunters anyway.

I get it though, if you’re an upstart. Having to basically hire an extra guy just to do ai compliance is a huge hit to the barrier of entry

It’s comforting to know that politicians in the EU also have no clue what “AI” is.
Why do you say that
