Cohere CEO: AI industry risks becoming a cartel

Cohere CEO Aidan Gomez argues that a few dominant AI companies in Silicon Valley are attempting to define the rules and safety standards for artificial intelligence, potentially stifling competition and innovation. He draws parallels to historical instances like the SEC's designation of bond rating agencies and the European car manufacturers' antitrust waiver, where stated goals of safety and reliability ultimately led to monopolistic practices. Gomez advocates for a system where safety standards are established based on scientific evidence, allowing for broader participation and preventing incumbents from dictating the terms for the entire industry.
