This is wonderful. Many of these reports are makework paperwork. One even wonders if pushing for them is just taking a page from the CIA Sabotage Manual and applying it to us. Considering Congress members barely read the bills they’re voting on, it’s probably insignificant that this pointless paperwork is dispensed with. When we finally end Environmental Impact Reports by generating them at scale with AI we will finally be able to escape this plateau of ossification. I’m not particularly attached to bullshit being manufactured by human minds. | ||

If these reports truly are so bad, the law should be changed to stop requiring them. But, lawmakers aren't choosing to do that. Maybe there's actually some good reasons for them to exist. | ||

> Considering Congress members barely read the bills they’re voting on That seems like a good opportunity for AI to be used as a summary. And on other fun note, in many cases Congress does not even write the bill, their patrons do and have them pretend to represent it. | ||
