At the same time this AI revolution is happening, there is also a psychedelic revolution happening. When this happened in the 60s-70s, the psychedelic revolution was crushed by the government. And we entered an AI winter. I’m not implying causation. Just pointing out a curious correlation between the two things. I wonder what will happen now.

  You are correct. Today on HNs front page there was an article talking about how the EU has already said they are going to regulate AI.

    That was targeting pre-GPT AI. They’re now trying to figure out how GPT fits into their considerations.

        It means they don't want to institute regulations that don't make sense for GPT-type AI. See https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/regulatory-framework-ai https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/regulatory... for the rationale and general approach.
