iamtrask: hard copyright rulings would slow AI, empower media companies on the safety side
iamtrask · x · 2026-09-20
iamtrask argues the AI safety community should push for hard copyright/data-sovereignty/privacy rulings:
- Near term: such rulings would slow down AI development
- Mid term: they'd position powerful media companies on the safety side from the start
- Long term: they'd deconcentrate AI power — more narrow AIs, slower general AI development
