AI isn't anything like nuclear weapons. One possible analogy i can draw is how scientists generally agreed to hold off on attempting to clone a human. Then that one guy in China did and everyone got on his case so bad he hasn't done it again (that we know of). In the best case, I could see AI regulation taking that form, as in, release a breakthrough get derided so much you leave the field. God, what a sad world to live in.
