We absolutely must regulate AI. Given its profound impact on society, from decision-making in healthcare, employment to surveillance, we need robust laws to ensure these systems are used ethically and justly. Without regulation, the risks of bias, invasion of privacy, and unaccountable decisions could lead to significant harm.

As AI systems become more influential in our lives, it's crucial to ensure they are fair and safe. Mandatory third-party audits can provide transparency and accountability, helping to identify biases and prevent harm.

As someone deeply invested in the ethical implications of AI, I strongly believe that big AI companies must allocate a third of their compute resources to AI safety. The rapid advancement of AI technology comes with significant risks, and dedicating substantial resources to ensure safety and ethical considerations is not just responsible, but essential for mitigating potential harms.

While shaping the future of AI is crucial, the post-artificial general intelligence era is speculative and current AI development needs oversight and regulation to address present-day ethical concerns.
