We have more challenges here in the West, but I do see it as a great equalizing function effectively.

What do you want to see the regulatory framework here in the West be?

I think that things like the CHIPS Act in the US, there's $10 billion allocated to regional centers of excellence, and AI should be 100% generous for AI.

There should be regulatory sandboxes so that our systems can be upgraded with this, because otherwise, how long will it take the government to be upgraded with this technology or financial services and others?

And I think that there should be regulation around the manipulative use of this AI for advertising in particular, because we're not going to understand what's happening.

Similarly, we need to have some sort of provenance factor.

So we're part of kind of various certification things.

We're exploring blockchain and other things.

The media wave that's going to come is going to be insane and we don't know what's true and what's not.

I get it.

You know, these things are fearful.

A lot of illustrators were very scared because they're required to up their jobs and it is scary.

There's a question around attribution and other things as well.

And again, that's why we made it transparent and offered the chance to opt out because like everyone was kind of doing this, but no one was transparent about it.

We don't need to have any crawls within a year.

It will be synthetic data sets or national data sets or similar with retrieval augmented models that can look stuff up.

But it is what it is now.

And again, you've got to put the word out there.

The actions they're taking with the various lawsuits and policy pushes would basically entrench all power with the existing IP holders.

And a lot of kind of artists are pushing for something that would be akin to music copyright, or even style is copyrighted.
