A dad-era pop-punk protest against politicians regulating technologies they cannot explain.
The people making AI rules are often very confident and very far from the work. That mismatch deserves a chorus.
AI regulation can either reduce real harms or freeze progress in ways that make the country weaker, poorer, and less capable.
Builder-politics pop-punk from the point of view of parents who want the next generation to build faster, not wait politely.
This song is the political edge of Model FM: pro-builder, pro-growth, anti-bureaucracy, and specific when the moment calls for it.
The point is not that all regulation is bad. The point is that ignorance plus power is a dangerous instrument.
Step Function fits because the sound is energetic and nostalgic, but the character is older now: a parent who remembers the early internet and does not want AI smothered in its crib.
