      It has to start somewhere. I don’t understand why perfect is always the enemy of making literally any progress at all.

        Excellent point. All i meant was I hope that this is applied more with regard to future industries.

    What is this? Why not just tax them? I am not interested in bailing out AI companies.

      Doubt it. People far too much underestimate human subjective experiences
