>All I care is that he comply with all regulations and that his bread tastes good, I don't really mind if it's not best bread in the world.

That's part of the issue. They ignore regulations and the bread has mold. But we eat it and say "well I'm not dead". Because we're being conditioned to eat, not taste. To consume, not question.

Meanwhile, I complain the bread tastes stale and moldy and I get argued down by fake bakers that "no you don't understand this is the future of bread". Well, it sucks. I don't csre how much you're paid to say otherwise or promise they it'll taste "good" (read: not crap) in a few years. I'll go to my bakery until then instead of having your bread shoved down my throat.

Make it taste like bread first instead of hyping up how it looks so close to bread. That's the whole issue causing the downfall of society.



There’s also the case that the regulations don’t exist.

And what’s more worrying is things where the negative impact is higher order.

If the bread has some poison that will kill you in 5 years time etc.

Currently we maintain a bar partially with human ethics and processes, whether that is directly preventing bad outcomes because of liabilities or reflecting on bad outcomes once they happen to improve regulations (a lot of which relies on introspectability).

Once AI starts replacing the decision-making layer, we lose the collective understanding of how processes fail. Once you start needing to constrain the space of machine error, you’ve basically arrived at almost solving the problem again.


Yes, I do appreciate my FDA making sure any properly rated eatery isn't potentially serving poison. Another big issue as of late to worry about asubgpvernmejr decides shilling crypto and EVs (which he ended the tax credit for... oh, and not tarriffs!) is more important than simply keeping regulatory bodies operating.
