The All-in podcast discussed an adjacent topic this past week, and I found what they suggested pretty interesting:

the big AI players, the first movers, are trying to scare the bejeezus out of everybody on purpose, to cause the government to step in with regulations. Even though the regulations will somewhat stifle/slow down the industry, it will also lock in the current leaders because they will be at the table when the regulations are formulated, and they believe they will be able to keep the smaller players down.
