But in the future, who should decide where to draw the line and how to weigh the pros and cons? CEOs of companies or democratically chosen governments? The answer should be obvious if you believe in democracy.AI Verified source (Jul 9, 2024)

The quote clearly favors democratic/public decision-making over private company control: it says line-drawing and weighing tradeoffs should be decided by 'democratically chosen governments' rather than 'CEOs of companies.' That implies support for public deliberation/governance instead of developers or companies deciding alone.

The quote contrasts private company decision-makers ('CEOs of companies') with 'democratically chosen governments' and says the democratic answer 'should be obvious,' which strongly implies these value/line-drawing decisions should be publicly accountable rather than left to company insiders alone. It does not name developers specifically, but it clearly points away from private control.
