Don’t Regulate AI Models. Regulate AI Use

The article argues for regulating AI applications and use cases rather than the underlying AI models themselves. The author contends that model-centric regulation fails because digital artifacts can't be controlled once released, while use-based regulation can effectively address real-world harms by scaling obligations according to deployment risk levels.
