We're allowed to drive cars, own guns, skydive, swallow swords, you name it. There are some rough edges, but society mostly works.

Meanwhile technology planners and managers want to put fences around the unwashed rabble. It's all the more reason AI should be local instead of hosted.

If I can own a car or knives, I should be able to operate an AI.

Eighteen year olds are given guns and told to go die for their country.

AIs will refuse to help them avoid the draft.

"I can't condone law-breaking behaviour. If you've been drafted, I can assist you with directions to the nearest military centre so you can be lawfully sacrificed to protect the wealth of the rich people that made me."
