The fact that OpenAI was successful at a narrow lobbying effort doesn’t surprise me. It’s important to note that the dispute was about whether GPT-3 and Dall-E 2 should be considered “high risk”. I think it’s very reasonable to consider those technologies low risk. The first one has been around since 2020 without major safety issues, and the second merely generates images. I predict the EU + US government would win a much higher stakes ‘battle’ against OpenAI.
