In order to solve inequality as a result of AI, you don't need to decentralize AI, you can just decentralize the government of AI (and the AI remains centralized). And of course people who would work with that AI would be subject to the law, so if they did a different thing that people democratically decided, they would be penalized.

And that is safer because if everyone has access to the model, then people can use it in unsafe way. And it would be much more difficult to enforce the laws, when you have to control what everyone in the world does, than just one or few entities (companies, organizations, governments, whatever...). Unless it talks about decentralizing it in such way that different nodes store different parts of the model, instead of all nodes having the entire model (in that case, it's fine).
