    More regulation, more red tape and less economic growth.

    And then in a years time the Chinese models will have these capabilities anyway.

    This should be quite interesting to watch. It seems widely agreed that the "hands off" approach worked well with the internet. Only now after decades are some people trying to turn the screws with section 230 repeals, age verification, and all sorts of other onerous requirements on internet usage that were never needed before.

    I wonder how badly these onerous requirements on AI will stunt its growth.

      “ It seems widely agreed that the "hands off" approach worked well with the internet.”

      I mean, “worked well” seems wildly subjective.

    There’s part of me that doesn’t hate this idea, but If there’s anything I’ve learned about Trump it’s that his definition of conservative is 180 degrees from mine.

    It will be less classical liberalism / burkian conservatism and just more anti-immigrant hate. Less worker protections, more power consolidation.
