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?
