    I don’t see how AI will potentially shatter society. You can’t prevent AI models from being misused any more than you can prevent the internet from being misused.

    The biggest danger of AI is the capability of spreading orchestrated misinformation. Since this is mostly done by state actors nothing can be done against it. I’m not opposed to AI regulation, it’s just that generating images or text is not what’s worrying about AI.

      I didn’t say image or text generation specifically is what would be society-shattering. There are lots of concerning aspects of these tool, and combined with the pace they’re being developed, its pretty clear that we’re not really prepared for the damage these can cause.
