Full steam ahead on AI bullshit though, no brakes on the freight train of potentially society-shattering fuckery because there could be profits involved.

potentially society-shattering fuckery

Clearly cameras, screens and the internet shouldn't have been invented. After all - they facilitate the creation and spread of CSAM!

Ah, so you’re just going to ignore how vastly different the rollout of all those technologies was compared to the breakneck pace that generative AI tools are being made available to essentially everyone on earth with almost no oversight? I get that ignoring absolutely all the details makes it seem like my skepticism is unreasonable, but it’s a little dishonest, no?

I don't see how AI will potentially shatter society. You can't prevent AI models from being misused any more than you can prevent the internet from being misused.

The biggest danger of AI is the capability of spreading orchestrated misinformation. Since this is mostly done by state actors nothing can be done against it. I'm not opposed to AI regulation, it's just that generating images or text is not what's worrying about AI.
