Why are the AI Companies spreading F.U.D. about AI?

A couple of recent videos I have watched :
Billionaires Are Funding 'Anti AI' Content
AI Manufactured Doubt (long but interesting take)
My tin foil hat take : AI Companies understand that offline llm hosting is becoming more viable for both individuals and companies. They are spreading the "AI is dangerous" message to get government regulators to pass laws to keep the people "safe" from the unbridled power of tokens and weights. They will use their lobbying with the FUD as ammunition to pass the "AI Safety for the Children Act" to keep their grip on a soon to be commoditized industry.
Am I crazy? Maybe I have AI Psychosis?
