AI policy expert dismisses Big Tech regulation calls: 'We should see through this'
An AI policy expert publicly argued against calls for greater regulation of major technology companies, suggesting the push for oversight should be viewed with skepticism rather than taken at face value.
Why this matters: Big Tech companies calling for AI regulation is not a new story, and it is not an innocent one. When the largest players ask for rules, they often mean rules they helped design — ones that lock in their dominance and price out smaller rivals. That is called regulatory capture, and it has happened in plenty of industries before this one. The expert's point is worth taking seriously: wanting oversight and wanting good oversight are not the same thing. Who is writing the rules matters as much as whether there are rules at all.
