>Regulate maximum model size.

is it still 2023 in your reality?

as for the rest of it: my brother in Christ, may I remind you that America is not the only country in the world, that it does not own the Internet, and that its laws do not apply anywhere else? passing heckin' wholesome laws in one country will make no difference whatsoever when people and companies from 194 other countries can access the Internet and do things you don't like, just like you (for example) can be a LGBT on the Internet despite it being very illegal in Chechnya.

No, it's 2026, years into a "break the law rapidly and make ourselves too big to regulate" strategy, and it needs dealing with.

It's a good thing other countries are also able to regulate, and international treaties are a thing. It's also a good thing when things hill-climb towards improvement, even if they don't get better everywhere simultaneously.

Acting helpless or hopeless does not get things done. People saying it's impossible is a distraction from trying to get things done. Decide to win, rather than justifying why you're going to lose.
