    A very good start would be people not having that much power to begin with. Especially not if they’re not democratically elected representatives.

    But for the people in power we’re seemingly talking about (AI company leaders):

    • Not presenting AI as something mystical/mythical
    • Not turning AI into a product tailored to be addictive
    • Not framing AI as a tech only they can be trusted to keep and distribute (see also point 1)
    • Maybe developing the technology towards what gives most utility, not what earns them the most money (fat chance)

      I just want these AI companies to be held accountable for openly trying to hack everyone. It’s ridiculous they’re allowed to hide behind “AI did it, not us” as if what their product does isn’t their responsibility.

        Think of it as a game, the players are corpo, and gov.

        Corpo hacks planet, gov says, “Hm, that’s pretty bad corpo, we could hold you accountable… but… that’s pretty neat, maybe share a lil with us how you achieved this terrible incident (that we totally don’t want to leverage against international peers) and we can forget this happened…”

        A game of incentives.

        If the gov comes down too hard, they could slow the development, the same development that they short-sightedly want to exploit in parallel with the accused.

      this is hard, it’s pretty awesome. How would you want it presented? As a boring tool that does nothing important? Not understanding. The product sells itself to those who see value

      • Not turning AI into a product tailored to be addictive

      Is this something they’re doing?

      • Not framing AI as a tech only they can be trusted to keep and distribute (see also point 1)

      Agreed; open weight models are kicking their ass with this tho. I run local only.

      • Maybe developing the technology towards what gives most utility

      are we not doing that? Why do you need them for this?
