This is the entire basis for the War on (some) Drugs. Guess what? Drugs won.
Power is nothing without enforceability, and purposely implementing rules or laws that can't be enforceable is a form of malice and discrimination through selective enforcement.
People are begging to regulate "AI" when it doesn't even exist and there's not even an objective definition.
Absolute recipe for failure or worse.
I agree, we should absolutely toss out all those laws against murder because they can't be enforced perfectly or equitably.
