I am opposed to regulating any algorithms, including AI/LLM. We can certainly have safety regulations for equipment with the potential to cause physical harm, such as industrial robots or whatever. But the regulation needs to be around preventing injury to humans regardless of what software the equipment is running.

If that's the case, then it sounds like we largely agree with each other. There's no need for personal attacks implying that I'm somehow detached from reality.

Ultimately, this isn't strictly an issue specific to genAI. If a "script roulette" program that downloaded and executed random GitHub Gist files somehow became popular, or if someone created a web app that allowed anyone to anonymously pilot a fleet of robots, I'd suggest that those be subject to exactly the same types of safety regulations I proposed.

Any such regulations should be generically written, not narrowly targeted at AI algorithms. I'd still call that "AI safety", because in practice it's a much more useful definition of AI safety than the one being pushed today. "Non-determinism safety" doesn't really have the same ring to it.
