The article makes the point that the corporate structure wasn't enough to rein in the human ambitions at OpenAI. But then it concludes that we need more... government regulation. When has that ever stopped the march of technology?
Fission reactors. Human cloning. Nuremberg code for medical ethics in general.

> PWRs constitute the large majority of the world's nuclear power plants (with notable exceptions being the UK, Japan and Canada). In a PWR, the primary coolant (water) is pumped under high pressure to the reactor core where it is heated by the energy released by the fission of atoms.
When people say "fission reactor" do they mean something else?
But of course, what is the alternative?
Consumer choice? doubt it Self-governance? clearly not Crypto? lol
Nuclear energy, stem cell and DNA-based research, consumer supersonic flight, NIMBYism and zoning regulation, patent regulation-enabled trolling, copyright abuse, the tragic story of Google Books, fracking, the lack of technology innovation in post-WWII Europe, any historical or current example of communism, etc. I could go on.
Innovation only happens in risk-tolerant and fair markets. A good rule of thumb: Regulation encourages innovation when it supports risk-taking and supports fairness. It stifles innovation when trying to reduce risks or reduce fairness by preferencing incumbent winners.
