Probably just companies trying to impede progress of other companies. Not to say that the statement is wrong necessarily. But given that this is coming from a group of people that could very easily solve the problem, I'll take it with a grain of salt.
AI is growing faster than companies can secure it, warn industry leaders

#12Slight sidebar based on the content of the article. I don’t like the term “hallucination” for when a LLM produces nonsense. As if it otherwise has some grasp of reality and when it is wrong it is because it is hallucinating. Everything it produces is a “hallucination“, some of those are just more useful than others.
Technically the same problem applies to humans.

#13The Internet grew faster than companies could 'secure' it, and I would say that was not just a good thing, but key to its success.
While somewhat true, doesn't mean the same mistake has to be repeated to get progress on AI.

#14Make companies and their leadership responsible for any harm or damage that comes from AI generated content or actions. If a recipe is a hallucinated recipe and poisons someone, treat it the same as if someone created a salad recipe calling for raw kidney beans and rhubarb leaves in order to intentionally harm someone. AI creates a ton of garbage unmitigated, and cracking down on when that garbage is harmful will be…
Can you hold a hammer manufacturer responsible for a murder?
It is the users, and laws, that must control this.
Companies should add traceability to their AI products.
Govt.'s should ban non traceable content.
Holding users accountable for their actions is the only way forward to be safe and innovative at the same time.

In this case the hammer would follow the murderer's intent. It's not a suitable analogy.

This is the key. Folks are looking at current capabilities rather than the trend line. We need to be ahead of the development AI. There probably ought to be laws regarding how AIs can be used or not used. There probably ought to be required disclosure when AI is used to create a work of art.

It’s not an easily solvable problem. They can’t make an AI which won’t lie or make stuff up, which is sort of the root of the problem. Imagine an AI which is granted access to control systems. We can’t trust such an AI to run control systems any more than we can trust it not to lie or make stuff up. There isn’t the sort of rigor behind AI development to permit creating a provably correct AI. There needs to be more study in order to understand the limits of AI fallibility and failure modes.

#19Earlier quoted context omitted.
I have the opposite impression looking around at the current situation. The tech giants moved fast and broke things and they broke humanity.
You're probably not wrong. But I think we should recognize that what is humanity is rather fluid. If you were to talk to the 15th century clergymen, I think they would tell the horrors of printing press and how it has/will break humanity. And they wouldn't be wrong either. Humanity evolves, and, well, that's it. And overall, hopefully, and this is where we hopefully can effect positive change, we can steer the change…
It matters what you think of democracy. "The people" don't want transformative AI. The polls bear it out.

I think they simply shone a light on human nature. Those aspects were there and still affected people, but we had the illusion that we were rational humanist actors - and even then that was only in the west. the internet simply shattered the illusion.
