The man is a Democrat, a physicist and non-religious. Most have been in politics too long to come up with this dumb idea.

Never trust a physicist

Never trust a physicist on software. We have a special term at work, “Scientific Python”. When we say it to a physicist, they wear the hat proudly, but what we mean is “incomprehensible garbage that breaks as soon as you give it any input other than the one thing they tested it with”. If they want you to maintain it, the first step is to ask them to run it, look at whatever plot it generates, and write something from scratch that produces the same plot.

Also just looking for falsification…

This would be part of the defence industry

I wouldn’t trust any administration with this ability, but especially not the current one.

Absolutely not. Keep your tracking devices out of our products. If you want to shove a fucking GPS up your ass and give it to the government that’s your choice, but you can fuck right off with selling more tracking services tied to hardware to the population who has no say.

So then what happens when someone spoofs a GPS signal outside your AI datacenter? … I think I like this idea.

Very James Bond, I like it.

And then the cool twist where the bad guys figure out how to exploit it and uno reverse all the good guys computers. Man, that would be a fun movie. I’m glad we’re not talking about real life or whatever.

US approves of Israeli operation to turn electronics into bombs, so even with the golden pager gift, this politician just hasn’t gotten the ultimate inspiration for manifest destiny thinking.

Even if they did that, there’s a lot of talented engineers in China. It would take them no time to bypass that I’m sure.
