> If the AI regulations are reasonable and AI companies can't operate, the technology just isn't ready for wide-spread adoption yet.
Conversely if the AI system is reasonable, but the regulations are making them illegal, then the blame is on the regulations.
There is a trade-off between potential benefits and potential harm, and it's not immediately clear to me, who is in the better position to find it: the AI companies or the legislators. The first are biased because they want to sell their products, but the second have worse understanding of the technology and are IMO on average too over-protective.
