The US government got involved in regulating airplanes long before there were any widely available commercial offerings:

If you're trying to draw a parallel here then safety and the federal government needs to catch up. There's already commercial offerings that any random internet user can use.

I agree, and I am not saying that AI should be unregulated. At the point the government started regulating flight, the concept of an airplane had existed for decades. My point is that until something actually exists, you don’t know what regulations should be in place.

There should be regulations on existing products (and similar products released later) as they exist and you know what you’re applying regulations to.
