Attempting to regulate AI through general laws against neural networks is implausible because neural networks are mathematically indistinguishable from basic statistics and linear algebra; instead, regulation should focus on specific use cases (surveillance, healthcare, defense, finance, education) and the consequences of technology rather than the technology itself.

what I'm concerned about is some some sort of naive attempt to create a neural network law you know thou shal not use neural networks or something like that um and that's what seems to me to be implausible because neural networks under the hood are just a bit of mathematics
