AI is a genie that you can't really stuff back into a bottle. It's out and it's global. If the US had tighter regulations, China or someone else will take over

AI is a genie that you can't really stuff back into a bottle. It's out and it's global.
If the US had tighter regulations, China or someone else will take over the market. If AI is genuinely transformative for productivity, then the US would just fall behind, sooner or later.
- beepbooptheory 3y agoThen let them! If another country put forward tighter regulations to help actual people over and above the state that holds them, then that is good in itself, and either way will pay for itself. Why are we worried about China or whoever taking over the market of something that we see has bad effects? Like, we see this line everywhere now, and it simply doesnt make sense. At some point you just have to believe something, be principled. Treating the entire world as this zero sum deadlock of "progress" does nothing but prevent one from actually being critical about anything. This would-be Oppenheimer cosplay is growing really old in these discussions.
