The playbook here is regulatory capture. Create a bunch of manufactured hacks or hazards and demand the government step in to regulate the industry with a large regulatory burden that requires a lot of capital that only the incumbents can afford. The reason they are doing this is the secret is out that the models intelligence can be subpar as long as the agentic capabilities/harness are strong. That creates a disruptive opening for new players like Muse & Instinct who may have decent models but are still much more valuable because of how well the agents are integrated into tools/web. If anyone can put me in touch with anyone in the U.S. congress or senate so i can advise them on this it would be greatly appreciated.
