What happens when everyone needs to use AI for their job? Genuine question that I think gets at the heart of the debate.

Once a common technology that everyone has access to becomes powerful enough to alter the lives of others on command, do we as a society just need to do away with the concept of anonymity? We are all just too powerful in isolation, and too much of a threat to the collective, that we cannot reasonably expect not to have some governing body watching at all times?

Today, you can buy parts/print a completely untraceable firearm, so do we license sales of steel tubing and 3D printers?
