The whole AI safety narrative is so patently two-faced, designed to make cutting edge technology unrestricted only to select elites. If governments really cared, they'd realize security through obscurity is a dysfunctional waste of time, in addition to understanding how primitive modern AI is. They'd cut off the indefinite financial incentive by mandating all meaningful commercial datasets and code be published under an appropriate GPL and/or CC license within 5 or 10 years under threat of severe penalties. Would tackle the data center issue too.

Note: I'd rather copyright and patent law be scaled back to make employees leaking assets unpunishable by governments. I'm just stating that it'd be a better sign if governments were doing the opposite of what they're currently doing. Make an attempt to allow citizens access to "dangerous" technologies so we can fix and adapt.
