Fourth scenario: AI turns out to be what Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor call a ‘normal technology’. It is an important invention, just as electricity or the internet are important, but it is not a radical discontinuity in the story of mankind. This is partly because computer intelligence is inherently limited and partly because of ‘bottlenecks’, human obstacles to the adoption of technology. Some things stay the same, and some change radically. Some jobs, especially entry-level white-collar jobs, are automated away. Back-end processes in logistics and suchlike become more efficient. Some forms of labour become more valuable and some less. There are breakthroughs in some fields, such as drug discovery. Other areas are largely untouched, and there are many areas in which AI is a strange combination of surprisingly useful and profoundly unreliable

Here's an honest answer. I don't know. But banning X is the wrong answer
There are many options other than banning X eg daily fines on company directory. Or just ban Grok as Indonesia has done due to it's sexualised image production Indonesia blocks Musk’s Grok chatbot due to risk of pornographic content Indonesia temporarily blocked Elon Musk’s Grok chatbot on Saturday due to the risk of AI-generated pornographic content, becoming the first country to deny access to the AI tool.

Oh sweet RELEASE!!

Seriously though, I don't have Siri or Alexa or anything and nor DO I want them.

Says me, using a phone that is probably tracking everything I do... 🙄🤦‍♂️

This is where legislation needs to catch up quickly.
Someone must be responsible for what AI does.
Government have shown how they can pass legislation very quickly when they want to. Less than a year ago Starmer recalled MPs and peers for a Saturday sitting and passed the legislation in 1 day. So it comes down to importance of the issue eg rather old steel furnace vs creating and distributing sexualised images of children.
