I disagree on "Focus on Usage, Not Development".
> Regulate the use of AI in high-risk areas such as healthcare, criminal justice, and critical infrastructure, where the potential for harm is greatest
This suggests, for example, image generation should be unregulated, but potential for harm of deepfake is great. In general, regulation needs to be feasible to implement, and even if it is ideal to regulate use not development, it can make a sense to regulate development due to feasibility concerns.
- root_axis 2y agoDeepfakes are already possible and entirely convincing with existing technology, I don't see the benefits of stifling the development of open source transformer models for fear of deep fakes.
- mattnewton 2y agoIt’s generally not possible for California state legislature to regulate deepfakes; closing the metaphorical doors now doesn’t make sense as the metaphorical horses weren’t even contained in their barn to begin with. (I’d argue it’s not desirable for the US to try regulating the creation of these tools rather than their use at a federal level either but that’s another discussion)
- jahewson 2y agoThat’s like banning cars because some people use them to run over other people.
