This argument is just socialism (which I'm in favor of BTW).

Governments control out lives, determining love and death. Therefore we should have the right, as a people, to control those governments. Thus arises democracy.

Businesses control or lives, determining what we can and can't acquire obvious those things necessary for life. Therefore we should have a right, as a population, to control business. Thus arises socialism.

The argument here is exactly the same. AI will have such a powerful impact on our lives that we the public deserve the right to control it and therefore it must be nationalized.
