Its a trade-off- a humanity racing and potentially going offer the cliff, needs all the tools to continue existance as an civilization. None of the involved decision makers caring long-term worries about the AI-companies or the artists. Fleeting momentary things, but the capabilities are eternal, as long there is a chip, with a solar panel half way around the world, some medieval tribe with a tablet can recover western civilization from basic principles. Thats the best insurrance against regression into stone-age facism or socialism money can buy.
