I’m going to play devils advocate and cough recite a common argument from the pro gun Americans.

“It’s not guns that kill people, it’s people that kill people”.

It’s not “AI bad”, it’s about the people who train and deploy AI.

My agents always look for research material first - won’t make stuff up. I’d rather it say “I can’t determine” than make stuff up.

AI companies don’t care about institutions or civil law. They scraped the internet, copyright be damned. They indexed art and music and pay no royalties. If anything, the failure of protecting ourselves from ourselves is our fault.

And the vehicle to protect ourselves is called "government". Looking around... yeah.

The common argument seems to hold up in both cases.

Yeah but it's people with guns that kill people, therefore a lot of countries regulate & restrict gun ownership to reduce gun violence. Same can apply with AI abuses.
