> Similarly, those who build AI need to take precautions to make sure the AI they build doesn't accidentally cause serious harm.

I am ten thousand percent in agreement that this is needed. And yet, I don't know how we ensure and incentivize that these precautions are taken by the actors involved, and as I understand it, even many of the top researchers in the field agree that they don't know what precautionary measures would even be effective, let alone sufficient. It seems that game theory has so far been pushing the AI companies to build it anyway without a robust solution for preventing harms, even while they express worry in public about the potential for those harms.

Again we can hold corporations or people responsible for damages after the fact, but many examples can be cited to show how that tends to be insufficient.
