AI Safety Conspiracy Theories
Home / AI Safety Conspiracy Theories (September 2026)OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI, are calling for the government to regulate AI for safety reasons. Another camp believes they want regulation because their businesses are not as defensible as assumed, and they need a regulatory moat to help hold back the growing number of cheaper, open source competitors.I think it's unlikely these three fiercly competitive CEOs are coordinating in secret to deceive the public. But I also think it's unlikely that there's no financial motivation behind their calls for regulation.
