Gary Marcus Retweets: Regulating Dangerous AI is Product Safety, Not Censorship
GaryMarcus · x · 2026-08-09
Gary Marcus retweeted a discussion on AI regulation. The original tweet argues that AI models are tools, not speakers. Therefore, restricting dangerous AI (e.g., bioweapons, cyberattacks) is essentially a product safety issue rather than a free-speech concern. It also notes that there is still leverage to regulate frontier AI right now.
