I am so glad to see this. Something didn't sit right with me, so I had been doing my own research on this. Regulation is the boon for these types of industries. This is fearmongering to get regulation that will benefit them. I don't agree with you on your Biblical take, but this whole manufactured and hyped "emergency" certainly warrants questioning their motives. It's a control move.
Excellent article; I agree with much of what you say. You may however be taking your arguments too far. Indeed, the recent hysteria and panic are clearly manufactured, and the AI frontier labs could benefit from asymmetric regulation. But that's a far cry from the extreme position that "government is a disease masquerading as its own cure." Proper regulation has its place in a well functioning society. While we can disregard (for now) the threats of AGI and superintelligence, we should not ignore the fact that multiagent AI systems are unstable, uncontrollable and demonstrably dangerous. The frontier labs have mixed motives no doubt. But it behooves us to treat this as the multifactorial/multidimensional problem that it is, instead of forcing it into an over-simplified 2D projection.
The problem with hamstringing your domestic competition is that China (& North Korea) won't listen and will eat our lunch with China's open source AI. Good for the consumer, bad for the companies in the lead.
"We have to bailout these sluggish companies with walled gardens" bc they can't compete with free market Open Source AI.
Why bother paying walled garden & weaker AI when you can use Kimi for free?
This is the Window's play...free software for dominance then charge when you're in first place.
Money be damned, I would not encourage any young person age 17 to 25 to go into the AI development market. Better they know how to farm, how to build, how to do plumbing, and how to shoot a gun.

Good insights. The panic alarm sounds like a psyop pointed at regulatory capture at the very least.
