Honestly the US approach to AI is incredibly irresponsible. As an American, I'm glad that someone somewhere is thinking about regulation. Not sure it will be enough though: https://xcancel.com/ESYudkowsky/status/1922710969785917691#m


There's nothing the regulation could meaningfully hope to accomplish other than slow down people willing to play by the rules.


Wow, the "criminals don't follow laws therefore laws are worthless" argument, here? In my HN?


Usually it's possible to actually detect crime (in fact it's usually hard to ignore.) That's not the case with AI.


How about regulating big GPU clusters?


No, thanks, we don't want to be like EU. Everything regulated to death. They even thought to criminalize street photography because there could be copyrighted materials in the picture. Not sure, are they still taxing Eiffel tower images?


EU is not a monolithic entity, and amount of regulation varies widely. Baltics are very business friendly, for example.


And Estonia has the most impressive tech ecosystem on the continent while being a soviet backwater 20 years ago. Shocking how that works.


I thought it is happening in the US, too. I mean, the Government is there to regulate the shit out of everything. Regardless of where you are.
