Behind the Curtain: It's not too late
TL;DR
The White House, Congress and the country's leading AI companies have allowed AI to grow faster, stronger, more powerful and wildly lucrative (and dangerous), with no serious effort to control it or spread the benefits beyond the super-wealthy. It's not too late to change this. But if they all dither, duck or dance around it, the chances of AI worst-case scenarios will explode, likely early next year, according to almost every person we talk to privately who truly understands AI.
Nauti's Take
The piece names a real opportunity: bipartisan attention for AI rules exists right now, and the window for workable steps is open. The weakness is sourcing, because the dramatic forecast for early next year rests on private conversations with no evidence attached.
Anyone deploying AI should track the regulation debate without treating that timeline as settled.
