Good new piece from Tech Policy Review arguing that regulation should build on frameworks for social media regulation. Instead of inventing the wheel anew.

The piece focuses on the US context - so it's worth to translate these ideas into European context, where connections are increasingly made between and the . Ideas about platform responsibility and regulation, especially around systemic risks, can be translated into the debate (and this is actually happening).

This, by the way, is an interesting case of policymakers being quite agile. Regulation is criticised for being too slow - here there's a chance for quite an adaptive approach.

@tarkowski unimpressed, mostly regurgitation of an org's standard talking points, for AI.

> Powering these AI models requires massive processing power, often overlooked manpower, and the ability to afford long R&D timelines, which necessitates the kind of upfront investment that only major firms can allocate.

Clearly behind the times. 1/

Though this doesn't stop them from also stating

> Open-source and leaked models will likely compound these problems by empowering dangerous actors with powerful tools, making them that much more difficult to address.

> Generative AI and social media are inextricably linked in their origins, design, and operations,

Zero support offered for this assertion.

> and now they’re being deployed together in a way that has the potential to supercharge these threats.

Plausible though not novel. 3/

> This is why we’ve seen the development of these technologies concentrated in the hands of only a few powerful companies, contrary to the decentralized goals of Web 3.0.

Credibility destroying mention at the end.

No mention of "advertising" or "tax" let alone together, which destroys their credibility for me, incluidng on their home turf of social media. 4/end

@mlinksva Mike, you are right, the take on development (something that I know much less about than you do) is wrong, and simplifies the dynamics introduced in this space by open source(ish) approaches. I focused on the argument which I find interesting, and which you comment in 3/ - that there are similarities (and possibly also connections) between AI and social media. Basically, it would be good to have clarity which AI platforms will most probably be structurally similar to existing platforms ("social media").

@tarkowski Except for the part that Social Media regulation isn't working very well at all...
