Consider a human analogy: In many cases, people give financial advisors access to one or more of their accounts so that the advisor can make trades or other transactions for the benefit of their clients. However, if an advisor suddenly starts making transactions that do not benefit the clients or are contrary to their agreed instructions, then that activity is unauthorized, even if they have login credentials.

That would be a fiduciary. AI is certainly not that. Not today anyway.

DACs are not purely in the digital domain, "perfect" does not apply to DACs.

Indeed the exact same digital stream played through different DAC chips with their supporting algorithms and filters can sound quite significantly different. My own DAP has an AKM chip, but some people prefer ESS, Wolfson, TI/Burr-Brown, etc. I did not actually RTFA, but historically Sony has used their own DAC chips, some of which have been quite good, so I assume that remains the case here. That is probably more meaningful to people who care about sound than the gold plated screws.

Then have the smart people devise an AI policy for the all the other people to follow.

That is how it would normally work, yes. I simply pointed out why it does not work that way now.

I think we all know a person who is an expert in their field but dumb as rocks with things outside of it.

Indeed smart people always consider the tradeoffs involved in being spied on by the Chinese or the Americans. Government has nothing to add to that conversation in any case.
