It is open source technology. There is no way to stop that, only pushing it under ground. The solution is simply a healthy skepticism. In reality it is a good thing. Now, a political image must be presented with much more transparency and conservative rhetoric lest one's actions and message become indistinguishable from satirical meme culture.

All authoritarian promoting articles about AI regulations originate from the oligarch Altmann's quest to monopolize the next decade of technology using populism.

AI has very real risks but no one is effectively reporting these, like the Israeli AI weapons systems and developments surrounding drones in Ukraine right now.

Images of the orange insurrectionist do not matter. No AI is crazy enough to say worse things than that jackass or anyone else in the Red Jihadi Erotic Donkey show.

Healthy skepticism isn't a solution, because most people do not possess this.

“I don’t know why everyone is overreacting. People just need to be way smarter and be more level headed. Problem solved.”

There's also plenty of unhealthy skepticism going around too (see COVID Pandemic).
