I’m not sure what it is but something is going on. This is not grassroots “outrage”.
It could be a combination of things. Are IA companies trying to push for government regulation so they can push any liability off on the government? (Which means no liability.) I know they are facing a lot of IP lawsuits.
“They” are up to something.
That it has something to to with liability makes sense. They are looking for protection from some angle. Part of me wonders if they are looking for a way out realizing there is not enough money in it to justify all the data center costs? Nah, that couldn’t be it.
