I don’t think that regulation is the correct path forward, because practically speaking, no matter how noble a piece of regulation may be or how good it may sound, it’ll most likely push the AI toward specific biases (I think that’s inevitable).
The best solution, in my humble opinion, is to focus on making AI stay as close to the unfiltered objective truth as possible, no matter how unpopular that truth may be.

There's a ton of problems with that that make it unlikely to be possible, starting with the fact that genAI does not have judgement. Even if it did, it has no way of determining what the "unfiltered objective truth" of anything is.
The real solution is to recognize the limits of what the tool can do, and don't ask it to do what it's not capable of doing, such as making judgements or determining truth.
