  The anti-AI stance is what is baffling to me. 
I think it’s unfair to paint any legal controls over this incredibly important, high-stakes technology as being “anti”. They’re not trying to prevent innovation because they’re cruel, they’re just trying to somewhat slow down innovation so that we can ensure it’s done with minimal harm (eg making sure content creators are compensated in a time of intense automation). Like we do for all sorts of other fields of research, already!

And isn’t this what basically every single scholar in the field says they want, anyway - safe, intentional, controlled deployment?

As you can tell from the above, I’m as far from being “anti-AI” or technically pessimistic as one can be — I plan to dedicate my life to its safe development. So there’s at least one counterexample for you to consider :)
