Yeah, realistically what will happen is china will get far ahead in natural language computing which will benefit it’s economy, everyone who demanded chat GPT be stopped because they’re scared of change will demand the government do something to catch up and they’ll write exemptions into the law.
More likely they’ll realise this is the obvious way things will go and the only legislation will make it harder for open source and community run ai, but hopefully not significantly.
The next round of ai gen will start reaching consumer space soon. CAD, especially for electronics and structural design (E.g. creating the right amount of supports to hold a given load). They’ll scare a few corporations into pushing for legislation but I think the utility will be far clearer.
