The money is still flowing in places that keep asking for it.
BBB is law, anything attached to that, sure. Fuck that bill.
But I’ve yet to see a place lose it’s funding from an executive order and not get their funding back in court. EO’s are very literally nothing burgers if they are ever taken to task.
This EO doesn’t take away funding that was already granted. However, research labs constantly have to reapply for new grants and the agencies that approve them do have to follow EOs. It would be stupid to risk the future of your research, that could save lives, and the employment of your entire lab by not writing your grants in a way that would maximize the chance they get approved.
Maybe after a year or two a lawsuit could reverse the goverment not funding research using “AI” instead of “SI” but it would not be as straightforward as EOs that try to pull funding alloted by congress. By the time that happens their lab will already be shut down and several scientist’s carrers would be destabilized. Its not something PIs can just ignore.
Sounds super exploitable, like you could just agree to the terms and not follow them and use AI instead of SI. And then it’s just framing. They didn’t risk their research by being accurate, America threatened their research to embolden a cult of personality.
Why is anyone following this idiocy?
federal anti-cancer money requires that they cooperate and without that money people die
