Here’s a more logical and less emotional way to look at what’s happening with the chaotic regulation of these AI models…
It took decades/centuries to come up with policy around restricting weapons, drugs, heavy machinery, the purchase of chemicals, what’s legal or illegal to search in a search engine, etc.
AI is now a new thing that we’re going to have to regulate.
We’ll need industry people to be part of that, and most importantly the government…since they represent us.
As stupid as any given push or pull of policy is in the next weeks and months and years, realize that this normally takes years or decades to get right.
You’re watching policy take shape in realtime, for a tech that very few people even understand.
It’s going to be nasty. Expect it.
And stop assuming the worst, of everyone, all the time.
