If you’re saying you can’t understand why Libertarians think centralization is bad, that IS a crux and trying to understand it would be a potentially useful exercise.
I am not saying that. Many libertarians think that centralization of power often has bad effects. But trying to argue with libertarians who are advocating for government regulations because they’re worried about AI x-risk by pointing out that government regulation will increase centralization of power w.r.t. AI is a non-sequitur, unless you do a lot more work to demonstrate how the increased centralization of power acts contrariwise the libertarian’s goals in this case.
