Better to have systems in place to stop people stockpiling weapons, than not have it. Just because not all murders can be prevented doesn't mean we shouldn't have laws and systems in place to try to prevent as many as we can. The FBI and Interpol does all kinds of stuff, but when it comes to AI they are letting the horse leave the barn. In any case, I prefer to have systems that prevent all kinds of problems (e.g. blockchain-based smart contracts, yes I know LOL) than let them happen and try to clean up the mess after the fact. In general, cleaning up a mess is easier when the mess isn't self-preserving and being grown at an exponential scale by swarms of agents running on dark compute.
