I’m not sure who you’ve spoken to, but at least among the people who I talk to regularly who I consider to be doing “serious AI policy work” (which admittedly is not everyone who claims to be doing AI policy work), I think nearly all of them have thought about ways in which regulation + regulatory capture could be net negative. At least to the point of being able to name the relatively “easy” ways (e.g., governments being worse at alignment than companies).
I don’t disagree with this; when I say “thought very much” I mean e.g. to the point of writing papers about it, or even blog posts, or analyzing it in talks, or basically anything more than cursory brainstorming. Maybe I just haven’t seen that stuff, idk.
