There is a way, in my opinion: distribute AI widely and give it a diversity of values, so that any one AI attempting takeover (or being misused) is opposed by the others. This is best achieved by having both open source and a competitive market of many companies with their own proprietary models.

How do you give "AI" a diversity of values?

By driving down the costs of training and inference, and then encouraging experiments. For LLMs, QLoRA is arguably a great step in this direction.

Personalization, customization, etc.: by aligning AI systems to many users, we benefit from the already-existing diversity of values among different people. This could be achieved via open source or proprietary means; the important thing is that the system works for the user and not for whichever company made it.

Like giving nuclear weapons to everyone. What could go wrong?

AI isn't nuclear weaponry. It's bits, not atoms. It's more like encryption.
