The people who control the AI, however, do.

AI is not some runaway Skynet type of a thing. It's controlled by people, who will use it for good and bad.

Not to mention that AI is and will be owned by people who are already concentrating power in their own hands. They're not going to, voluntarily, relinquish that power.

It is possible to decentralize the AI model, add verifiability, and let it acquire real world data on its own.
