"Fake Voluntary" AI Regulation Is the Worst
Miles_Brundage · x · 2026-07-18
Miles Brundage echoes and comments on a perspective: if supposedly "voluntary" AI licensing regimes are practically mandatory, it creates two major issues: - Rules don't have to be clearly defined as in formal regulation, leading to **insufficiently reviewed rules** and **room for corruption**. - Because everyone pretends it's "already regulated," genuinely enforceable legal solutions will be delayed. He adds that this "fake voluntary" approach to AI regulation is one of the worst possible combinations.
