If White House is serious about harms that may be caused by AI tech, they should add Open Source and Transparency to the list of their blueprint principles.
I am not surprised. Remember that a lot of private companies (i.e. money) are involved... They do not want their product to be dissected. It is not a good practice of course (which is also why I decided to work in the public sector), but I am afraid there is nothing to be done. At least, I do not see how a paradigm shift could be implemented.
I agree, there is not much that can be done. Anything we could do, may end up being a wrong decision.
Totally :/
