I like the article's push for regulation, as if that isn't just an excuse for the existing big players to erect a moat around their technology to protect it from competition.

Depends on the regulation.

I'm inclined to think taxing AI used to displace human labor is likely to be far more effective. But I'm not aware of any bills experimenting with this right now.

I think saying that we got social media "wrong" today is not unlike looking at 1920s and 1930s cars and saying that we got automobiles wrong. We've only barely figured out what components social media is even made up of at this point.

Similarly; though, this is a chance to analyze the components we make it from, and look at the long term effects of using these technologies.
