Eh not really, we aren’t far off from AI being able to use browsers just like humans and operate in the world like us. There are no reasonable laws that will be able to prevent this

any law can be legislated, if it can be put down as text.

It may be considered unreasonable, but if the majority of people _do_ agree, then it could be done.

Yeah there are... There is no fair use for AI. Fair use is about human rights to their own thoughts. AI does not have that.

The law is simple... You have to have a license to the data to train a model with that data. If you don't... Get ready to be sued.

Becareful of regulatory capture tho. If the one with AI headstart can capture a huge swath of value, said value can be used to lobby and bribe legislators or the executives of the government.

There's no good way to put the AI genie back in the bottle, or make sure it will not create catastrophic undesired consequences. Only way is forward, even if there is no good path in sight.

This won't be the case everywhere. UK has actually already explicitly ruled the opposite

To operate in the real world like humans you need to have motivation. What is an AI motivated by?
