Also ironic how the copyright laws the companies have fought so hard to be emforced against consumers suddenly don't count, when they feed millions of stolen books, artworks, movies and songs into their models

Regulation frequently favor large corporations by increasing cost of entry. They will definitely want to ban or tax local open source models. So that they can collect rent forever.

What is worse is that I haven't really read a list of demands for regulation from the AI haters.

How about this one: "Inference may not be offered for less than a ten percent markup."

Would kill most large models, while the ones that can run on consumer grade hardware would not.

That is an interesting idea. It would be neigh impossible because there is already so much accounting tech to hide or distort profit though.

You believe it's important to not subvention AI for a while? It is a fundamental issue because if you can undercut labor costs for a while and get people fired you make businesses dependent on the AI that replaced that labor and then can raise costs again. Obviously that doesn't even really work and businesses are shooting themselves in the foot right now, but it doesn't stop them from trying.

In China a court just ruled that firms can't lay off workers based on AI. A law like that would severely slow down the adoption rate and expansion of AI.

They also need for regulation on open models so nobody can self host cheaply.

What sucks is that any legislation that gets written will be written by 90 year old and 80 year old fossils who don't understand how any of this shit works

because they were paid by said AI tech companies, so they can keep building those datacenters.

That's the neat thing, you don't have to do anything but vote for whomever gave you the largest bribe

Sometimes they also have to mouth justifications, written by their staff, but they have to memorize them, or else engage their question-avoidance skillsets.

Legislation on AI will serve to ensure that these mega tech corps will be the only AI game in town. The only thing they will "regulate" is the open source public models.
