You're discussing your peers' behaviors, not AI.

It's the same as saying "People don't kill people; guns do." Maybe guns(AI) should be regulated, but the primary problem is murderers(lazy peers), not weapons(AI).

If this is your stance on guns, I’m not surprised by your calloused take on AI

Yet countries that have strong regulation of firearms have significantly less murders (and accidental shootings) than countries that don't regulate them.

That does suggest that along with murderers, the easy accessibility of firearms is a problem (assuming that the ratio of murderers in different populations is approximately the same).

Just like with guns, AI is a crime of scope.

I can be a murderer with a knife, sure, but how many people can I kill? How many people can I kill if I have a class three license an a full auto gun?

I can pirate a news article here or there, sure, but how many news articles can I pirate? How many news articles can I pirate with AI?
