There's a strong push-back against AI regulation within some quarters. Predictably, the issue seems to have split along polarized political lines. With right-wing leaning people not favoring regulation. They see themselves as 'Accelerationist' and those with concerns about AI as 'Doomers'.

Meanwhile the unaddressed problems mount. AI can already deceive us, even when we design it not to do so, and we don't why.

Do you want to explain why you think this? It seems very reductive, basically saying anyone that doesn't agree with you is an idiot.

I'm very left leaning and against regulation because it will only serve big companies by killing the open source scene.

The bigger defining factor seems to be tech literacy and not political alignment.

Regulate businesses not technologies.
