The entire notion of “safety” and “ethics” in AI is simply a Trojan horse for injecting government control and censorship over speech and expression. That’s what the governments get out of it. The big AI players like OpenAI, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, etc. are incentivized to go along with it because it helps them through regulatory capture and barriers to competition. They also make some friends with powerful legislators to avoid pesky things like antitrust scrutiny.

Legislation should not restrict the development or operation of fundamental AI technologies. Instead laws should only be built on the specific uses that are deemed illegal, irrespective of AI.
