The problem with regulation is that it only extends so far. Do you think the Chinese AI will be developed with the same ethical considerations? The cat is out of the bag, you can't put it back in. People with terrible ideas are going to train their own AI models to do unethical things and there's basically nothing we can do about it anymore except prepare for whatever may come our way.

There´s this video on Computerphile where they talk about how you can program the AI so that it´s output is somehow mathematically traceable to being created by AI. The premise was to prevent cheating by students. And my first thought was "Well, so the´re just gonna wait till someone abroad offers it without this feature".

Which is why on top of regulations on how AIs might be designed there also need to be AIs able to detect if something has been AI created. You can not trust that everyone will be playing by the rules (if anything expects that, they really haven't been paying attention) so our only hope is trying to detect if someone is not.

Regulation will make certain uses of AI illegal, and punishable. Just like murder is still possible despite being illegal, bit the law certainly helps in preventing murder by making clear that committing murder will have consequences.

Yeah, this train has no brakes and if they stop no one else will.

The irresponsible thing would be to cease advancing it and let less responsible people take the forefront.

Why would you regad the Chinese to be the ones with moral and ethical bankruptcy and not the other way round?

Last time I checked the Chinese are deporting their Uyghur population to concentration camps. It's hard to get more morally and ethically bankrupt.
