I agree on regulations. Our general prior should look like public choice theory. Regulations have a tendency to drift toward unintended kinds, usually with a more rent-seeking focus than planned. They also tend to have more unintended consequences than people predict.
There probably are some that pass a cost-benefit, but as a general prior, we should be very reluctant, and have very high standards. Getting serious AI regulations started has a very high chance of misfiring or overshooting or backfiring.
