I can’t see it happening tbh, but like the USA government discussed putting restriction on AI development, I think OpenAI or some other companies asked them to do so!? And there were short/reels of high profile developers hyping out the fact that “we don’t know what we’re doing”, and one of them quit his job. So why is all that hype? Is the “Matrix” route actually a possible future ?

    Just as an aside and in addition to the other comments here:

    There is a phenomenon called regulatory capture. It can take many different forms but the short version is that agencies and policies get perverted to only benefit one group. When the intention should be society at large.

    There is a process where the big players, say OpenAI, call for regulation of their industry, not because they feel it needs regulating but because the regulatory hurdles will keep competitors at bay. Meta pulled a stunt like that as well with social networks. So big hype company calling for regulation in their field is a red flag, accompanied by a loud alarm bell.
