What if the AI is open source and run by individual creators? That changes the slant of the argument a lot. I worry that excessive regulation will mostly come down on individual creators using AI tools.

I'm not sure what you mean? The image and text models currently becoming popular are being trained on work that is not owned or created by those creating the models. The consensus amongst the artists whose work is being used to train them (without their permission or compensation) is very high that this is a bad thing. Financial impacts are already being felt by artists across industries. There's a huge level of denial of the impact of this on professional artists, already today, here on hacker news. 'Open source' is a separate issue to training on other peoples work, replicating their style and stealing their livelihood.
