As a European I rather have the regulations than the AI to be honest.



We'll end up with the AI, anyway. But by then it'll be foreign-controlled AI as everything in tech in Europe is.


It's hard to get out of bed for a race towards the lowest common denominator of behaviour.


Some things are inevitable, particularly when a new technology appears.

The choice is then whether to lead and have an opportunity to influence and benefit, or to follow and have neither.


What a depressing thought. It's inevitable we will live in a prison but at least you can choose the colour of the paint on the wall


AI is inevitable. Whether we will live "in a prison" is not.


Our children are already being bullied with deepfakes. Democracy is already being weakened. Artistic pursuits are already being devalued. And I'm told the best thing to do is embrace it... the prison has already arrived.


Some work will be replaced with AI. If you regulate the AI, the work will also be relocated.


I'm more worried about sexual harassment, the decaying value of truth and creativity, and increasing the power of the surveillance state than I am about job loss.
