This Chapter proceeds in four sections. Section A examines § 230 as a cautionary tale, using Facebook as the paradigmatic example of how emerging technologies can create harm without adequate government oversight. Section B discusses commercially available GAI systems and the risks they pose to users and the public writ large. Section C reviews various legal, legislative, and ethical approaches to GAI governance using the lessons learned from section A. And finally, section D discusses the First Amendment considerations courts and policymakers should think through for GAI regulations.
