    I think that’s throwing out the baby with the bathwater. But regulation and hitting these companies with false advertisement penalties is something we need ASAP. And liability. If the creator of a model can be made liable for damages, that would pump the breaks on this bullshit very hard. Funny how all the so-called AI companies are averse to any of that …

      To bad our president just signed an EO basically preventing all of that. But I agree we need regulations on this five years ago.

        Well, not so much preventing as actively inhibiting. Technically, that order only applies to models used by the federal government, but it does create a perverse business incentive that I suspect is highly likely to have a chilling effect on the industry as a whole.

        But I agree things are accelerating in the wrong direction, and regulations were needed years ago to prevent the upcoming shitshow.
