It's quite simple. The Venn diagram of my definition of safety and their definition of safety is not a circle. So long as that is the case, their regulatory framework will not take harms I consider important seriously and will actively prevent me from doing things I consider harmless. That isn't taking safety seriously, that is taking control seriously.

No, the argument is that neither the AI companies nor the regulatory regime will take AI safety seriously. Instead, they will take AI control seriously and that is a safety threat to those who aren't aligned with said AI companies and the regulatory regime they are pushing for.

Empirically the two camps of "AI safety" most likely to achieve anything in the foreseeable future are the frontier-lab aligned teams that want regulatory capture on models in order to secure their own positions, and the NIMBY anti data-centre anti-AI never build anything populists; neither of these camps are particularly aligned with the original mission of AI safety

The first of these camps is literally the original mission of AI safety. AI "alignment" has always been nothing but regulatory capture to secure the power of AI for those who see themselves as benevolent dictators.

Imagine the city folk who control all the laws trying to make it difficult for move your RV or boat between your house and your cabin. I expect there will be a lot of that.

From the rural perspective, it's all the "city folk" (well, suburbanites anyway) who actually have RVs and boats they transport between the house and the cabin. If anything, it'll be city folk mandating regulations forcing rural communities to spend even more money accommodating them while pricing the locals out even further.

"The map is not the territory." OP's point is that they aren't going to dispute your label of "Nazi". You are attempting to change their behavior by extending the label of "Nazi" to cover them and in doing so tar their behavior by association with "Nazis". They are saying they would rather accept the label than change their behavior to suit you. You are now doubling down on the shaming attempt by trying to reinterpret this as a move towards the more agreed upon definition of the label rather than the refusal to bow to your shady tactics it is.

No we haven't. I've been on a number of government projects cancelled due to budget overruns. You just don't hear about them because there's no incentive to report on them.

Most people think rape, murder, torture, and genocide are genuinely wrong.

Of course, most people also disagree on the exact definitions of these terms, so there isn't true consensus on their "wrongness".

How is the OP's proposal significantly different than "sin taxes" on cigarettes or sugary beverages?

No idea who this is (other than a Google search telling me she's some kind of reincarnated moe light novel character) but that's some real "She's actually a thousand-year-old dragon" energy.

Do you know what the word "prepubescent" means? It is not a synonym for "child". It specifically refers to someone who has not yet started puberty. Misuzu Kamio is canonically 16-17, ~5'2", with a prominent hour-glass figure indicating fully-developed secondary sexual characteristics. Is she a child? Yes, she is a teenager, which is considered a child by most modern people. She is clearly not prepubescent.

No, the cis women sit back and let their knights do the fighting for them, as women have always done. You are too focused on the puppets to notice the puppeteers.

The TERF fight is between two camps of cis women: those who feel their intra-gender status is threatened by trans women and those who feel their intra-gender status is reinforced by them. As with all feminine competition, the visible topic is just a facade for the real conflict.

Mandatory abortions for women who rape boys when?

Stripping all government workers of the right to vote in relevant elections would likely improve any Western democracy significantly.

That would be pointless, as they'd simply become government contractors with the same incentives. Besides, it's less the individual workers and more their unions (and similarly, NGOs) that enable small organized groups to wrest control of their collective power.
