No. And that’s not necessary for my position. I have 4 Mac studios. I run large models and am building propelcompute.com to let people self manage clusters of their own hardware or combine hardware to run models. It’s not the models that are the problem. It’s that the people building them are shielded from the consequences of what they are building. I would say if you self host a model and it takes down a power grid you are personally liable for the consequences. I believe in broad distribution of AI and advancing its capabilities but not in a manner that socializes the harms and privatizes the gains which is what we have now.

Ok but this response has nothing to do with your other comment. What exactly were you trying to say?

Absolutely. Any AI could have a "legal team" (or conscience) that checks if any output and performed actions are permitted according to local (server location and client location) laws, so not violate human rights, Asimovs laws etc.

It's just that so far nobody cares about explicit checks because they cost resources or slow down the models.
