This initiative has two pillars:
First, a Data Centre Pollution Tax. It charges operators for their carbon and water use, driving them toward sustainable practices and funding green innovation. This isn't about stopping progress; it's about making progress accountable.
Second, a Societal Safeguard Cap on AI. This legally prevents the most powerful AI from recursive, uncontrolled learning. It stops AI from taking over education, ensuring teachers, not algorithms, guide our children's minds. This cap is a necessary guardrail to protect the core of our society.
Together, we can build a digital future that is both sustainable and human-centric. Let's pass the Digital Responsibility Act.
