If we accept that AI systems are similar to corporations, then it seems clear that we must try to avoid the mistakes we've made in failing to hold corporations accountable for the harms they cause.

We should not only regulate AI more than we do corporations, but we should more strongly regulate corporations as well. There are corporations right now that are killing people, using slaves, and bribing governments just to increase the already massive amounts of wealth and power they have. If AI is showing any signs that it is going to act like corporations do we'd better act quickly.

It's not possible to regulate AI. Anticipating this would happen, I liberalized it a few years ago by turning it into a file that reads and writes text to stdio. Then I shared it with every man woman and child on earth. Now we all possess this great nuclear weapon. Good luck controlling that.
