The US acting fast to curtail corporate overreach just isn’t going to happen. We stopped doing that in the 70s.
We stopped acting at all in the 2010s. GOP won’t even pass legislation they asked for anymore.
That’s the GOP MO. Grind literally everything to a halt until they control both houses and the executive branch, then cut taxes on the rich, cram in as many judicial appointments as possible and weaken regulatory bodies as much as they can. They’ve been running that playbook since the mid 00’s.

Thus usually translates to someone paid a bribe to kick out competition.
Its not a bribe, just a trip to Disney land
That’s a bribe.
Would it not be a bribe if I threw in Disney world as well?
Believe it or not, still a bribe.
Perhaps I need to though in a brand new car!
Damn politicians are hard to please
Authorities should also “urgently” consider outlawing the publication of the “weights,” or inner workings, of powerful AI models, for example under open-source licenses, with violations possibly punishable by jail time, the report says
Fuck that, so only huge corporations can have access to it. You won’t even be able to have start ups to challenge the behemoths because this would shut down any open scientific papers explaining how AI works to get started.
If you want to make a case this technology is an existential threat equivalent to nukes and any proliferation is dangerous then treat it like nukes and nationalize it and make it so only government can produce it. At least the government is nominally subject to the people instead of a bunch of companies who will happily destroy the world if it makes them an extra buck.
We’re probably nowhere near that threat though so something like this would only serve to widen the gap between the current batch of huge AI companies and smaller scale developers and enthusiasts.
There’s probably no way to let corporations own AGI without letting them own us all.
We could at the bare minimum sign the autonomous weapons treaty
This is exactly what the big AI companies want. This will kill open source and freely available AI and anything made with it, forcing the only available options to be proprietary and lucrative.
The AI “threat” is probably the public reaction to AI
