Running local models will never be illegal. But maybe regulating ai could help bring down the hardware cost, by limiting scalping and data center uncontrolled growth.
And having cheaper hrdware would bring down the entry barrier costs and help make local ai more widespread

You’ve got a nice idea you should preach more. Government could impose a tax on data-centers bigger than a given threshold. Just like some countries have a luxury tax on some cars. this would make running very big data centers very hard and they would need some workarounds. maybe even have a cap limit on electricity usage in a region or a limitation like this.
