""" This will not apply to a small developer for years. At the point that it does, yes, if you make a GPT-5-level model from scratch, I think you can owe us some reports """ This is an insane way to legislate, so at best, it makes me think of underlying issues like corruption and incompetency. --- More holistically, it's alarming from a view of what they chose to focus on vs not I'm pro-regulation, but at the model provider tier, I rather see things like the equivalent of Net Neutrality and rules on platform providers not unfairly competing with app providers. That's the main new thing to be figured out, afaict, at the generic platform/utility provider level. AI risk is real. At the platform level, the issue isn't models capable of doing bad things, but whether you are a platform for those doing it and how liable you are. Something like KYC is an everyone problem and exists, so I'm unclear why the new legislative land grab, that's a distraction. I rather see targeted risk/harm-based legislation for app providers... Except that also already largely exists. The bank making loan decisions is regulated. Phishing is already illegal, irrespective of it using AI. Which model provider helps AI users stay compliant is a market thing. If the gov wants to be helpful, make clear standards at that application level with real consumer/business harm, and providers can decide if they help streamline those audits. AI Platform providers should be liable for knowingly enabling customers to do bad things (or intentionally ignoring), but the nature of compliance changes when you take this stance... KYC again, which already exists. So again, corruption, incompetency, or what? These politicians and lobbyists could have focused on regulating specific risks for specific industries, or ensuring liability and fair competition for model providers. But they took a very different road that feels more about anti-oss, anticompetitive, personal power, posturing, and weak risk reduction.
