But every advance in communication and information technology makes it easier to surveil or defame, and can be used for bad policing.
So we should just give up and accept surveillance and defamation without trying to come up with any legal counter measures?
Right now there’s a push to regulate the internet to “prevent CSAM” by blocking encryption, and I’m afraid a push to regulate AI will not get better results.
Totally agree that KOSA and the like are awful, but the existence of shitty regulations doesn’t negate the need for positive regulations.
But if we try to go further and impose restrictions on the AI models themselves, this will most likely solidify that AI is controlled by few powerful corporations. After all, highly regulated models by definition can’t be free and open.
I just don’t see this? So regulating powerful companies use of AI will… solidify their power? I’m not connecting the dots here but that might be on me, as I think there are plenty of highly regulated spaces that still see innovation.
