I don’t think it is impossible to do so, it just might not happen before we start facing repercussions of some kind or another.
Just like, after the industrial revolution, we are beginning to come to a shared conclusion that climate change, as a result of industrial pollution, has begun to affect our lives.
It is not and was never impossible to make the necessary changes to prolong our species’ existence, we simply have to learn the hard way IMO.
Bleak and depressing but the thought that these things aren’t impossible gives me a little hope.
The problem I see is that a lot of the LLM models are already open-source, so the legislation might try to limit it’s usage, but that should have been done before their training. Right now anyone with a simple laptop can download a model and run it locally fully offline. Same goes to other AI technologies. To be honest the time to regulate was when those crappy deepfakes started showing a few years back, now it’s defintely too late.

And yet we still haven’t done anything to slow it down let alone stop it and that has been an issue for decades.
LLMs are very rudimentary forms of AI, they’re not even the kind of AI that I think we should be worried about.
I wouldn’t even call them an “intelligence” at all, more like an aggregated set of data.
Not an ML and AI specialist or anything but what I’ve seen of some of the technical details, with my “some” education and experience in software engineering, did not lead me to believe we are anywhere close to actual artificial intelligence.
General AI is already changing the fundamentals of multiple areas of life and there is no stopping that. And legislations are not written with future in mind, so even if some regulation is passed it will be already outdated. It might be pessimistic view by some, but one thing is true - humans can’t stop progress it’s our nature. So we will work on these technologies no matter what.
I don’t always catch it for one and it helps to avoid try to guess news outlets motivation behind the renaming. Some outlets are also releasing the same articles with few different links/titles just to get more clicks.
Also with how Lemmy suggests posts that already exists with the same title when creating a new one it helps to avoid cross-psoting issues.

“Rein”, as in the original. “Wants to reign in AI” has a completely different sense.
They corrected it after posting the article, but I always use original title. Maybe I should make an exception for typos, not sure.
Why not go ahead and edit it to follow their edit? It’s a nice feature of Lemmy that you can edit titles after posting (unlike certain other sites!).
