What AI Regulation and Ownership Could Be
A piece in Mother Jones examines possible frameworks for how AI systems could be regulated and who should own them, engaging with debates about governance structures for the technology.
Why this matters: Ownership and regulation are not abstract policy questions. They decide who benefits from AI, who is liable when it causes harm, and whether the public gets any say at all. Right now a small number of companies are making those calls by default. If that arrangement hardens before regulators catch up, changing it later becomes very hard. Who owns the model shapes what the model does.
