KEY POINTS
- •On a recent Tuesday, President Donald Trump committed to signing an executive order about AI regulation.
- •The order's details were deliberately vague, avoiding clarity on federal authority over state laws and AI specifics.
- •The Verge used this moment to invite internet readers to subscribe, blending tech news with a call to action.
On a Tuesday that nobody could quite pin down, former President Donald Trump announced he would sign an executive order to exert federal control over AI—except he didn't specify what 'some sort' of order would do or when exactly it might happen. This glorious masterpiece of bureaucratic ambiguity defies constitutional rationale and steamrolls over state sovereignty—all while leaving tech watchers guessing like it's a game show. Meanwhile, The Verge heroically begged internet wanderers to subscribe as proof of their chivalry, showcasing that in 2025, the only thing clearer than AI policy is corporate newsletter guilt trips.
