companies could mean losing the AI race to China. They treat any talk of safeguards as regulation. Which is why Trump has said his regime will oppose any state laws and regulations affecting AI, because they claim it will create a patchwork of regulations that will slow the industry down. But of course the AI bros don't want federal regulations either.
