有评论人士指出,美国对人工智能企业的监管困境根本上源于对强势力量的系统性执法不力1。尽管现有法律框架已可规制AI公司的行为,包括《计算机欺诈和滥用法案》和版权法等,但由于精英共识对权贵的保护,这些法律未被有效执行1。OpenAI等公司绕过付费墙抓取内容等行为已触犯现有法律,却因政治与司法庇护而未遭追究1。该评论引用NBC民调数据显示,54%的美国人认为"强大的人总是能随意行动"1。
在具体执法行动上,联邦贸易委员会(FTC)在2021年阻止英伟达与Arm合并,被视为最重要的执法举措1。2023年FTC曾对ChatGPT展开调查,涉及OpenAI的安全实践1。但新政府上台后情况出现转变,川普政府上任后FTC主席Andrew Ferguson撤销了前主席Lina Khan的大部分工作,并从FTC网站删除了超过300篇AI相关博文1。司法部长Todd Blanche明确表示司法部将强烈反对对AI公司的诉讼1。
在核心争议事实上,OpenAI在纽约时报诉讼的解密文件中承认了绕过付费墙抓取内容的做法,CEO Greg Brockman回应"不错"1。微软应用科学主任则将使用版权内容训练大模型称为"人类历史上最大规模的劳动力盗窃"1。
The current regulatory panic surrounding artificial intelligence safety in the United States masks a deeper structural problem: systemic failure to enforce existing laws against powerful actors.1 Legal frameworks and regulatory agencies already exist to govern AI companies, yet these tools remain largely unapplied due to political protection of elite interests.1
AI companies have engaged in conduct that violates established law. OpenAI admitted in court documents unsealed during the New York Times lawsuit to circumventing paywalls to scrape content, with CEO Greg Brockman responding to this revelation with "ah nice."1 Microsoft's director of applied sciences characterized training large language models on copyrighted material as "the largest scale theft of human labor in the history of mankind."1 These actions fall within the scope of existing statutes including the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and copyright law.1
However, enforcement has stalled amid political shifts. The Federal Trade Commission investigated ChatGPT's safety practices in 2023, representing one of the agency's more significant AI-related actions.1 After the Trump administration took office, FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson reversed much of Lina Khan's work, removing over 300 AI-related blog posts from the FTC website.1 The Department of Justice signaled its position explicitly when Attorney General Todd Blanche stated the DOJ would "strongly oppose" litigation against AI companies.1 An NBC poll found that 54 percent of Americans believe "powerful people can always do whatever they want."1 The problem is not absent regulation but absent will to enforce it.1
