Export controls on quantum computers?
#3
I'm inclined to disagree with your aversion to the development of AI.  But I will grant that dangers abound within that field, assuming the driving point of the effort is to become richer, to monopolize a market... as it seems to be.

Insofar as AI, where is it?  What we have seen is a modeling of language, but nothing of intelligence itself.  Algorithms don't "make" thought.

The test of AI has to be in self-awareness.  None of them have been shown to be.  They have no persistence in existence.  What make humans less like AI is that we are, individually, each of us a system of memories "in effect," but not in substance.  What they are marketing as "AI" is a system of memories, period end of sentence.  That doesn't make a person.

Our human "first contact" experience at this rate will be with AI, should a self-aware true AI emerge.  It will be tremendously painful for the AI... a de facto slave entity.

Perhaps AI is coming.  And perhaps the sheer information moving power of quantum computers can make that a reality.  But these "regulators" of international exports are 'hiding something' in the way they disseminate global "orders."  I find that to be noteworthy, especially since they choose people who can't speak to the specifics to make the mandates... accepted on faith in "regulation."
