Ethics and accountability must precede AI regulation or fail entirely

Stine argues that legal uncertainty over AI training data and IP ownership is reshaping corporate AI deployment strategy, making ethical human behavior and industry self-regulation a necessary prerequisite to effective government policy. He contends that without industry-driven accountability frameworks addressing privacy, bias, and responsible use, top-down regulation will arrive too late and miss the structural problems already embedded in AI systems.
