Seems a reasonable request. You are creating a tool with the potential to be used as a weapon, you must be able to guarantee it won't be used as such. Power is nothing without control.
How is that reasonable? Almost anything could be potentially used as a weapon, or to aid in crime.
This is for models that cost 100 million dollars to train. Not all things are the same and most things that can do serious damage to big chunks of population are regulated. Cars are regulated, firearms are regulated, access to drugs is regulated. Even internet access is super controlled. I don't see how you can say AI should not be regulated.
This is appeal to authority, the ligitimicy, correctness and, "goodness" of the items you've listed are in constant flux and under heavy dibate.
These two in particular are a powder keg. US politics likes the former (a lot) and, lemmy is attracted to the latter.
