I don’t buy the regulatory capture framing. If the ppl closest to the frontier are independently saying the trajectory is moving faster than our ability to understand or control the risks, taking that seriously isn’t weakness or a power grab… it’s responsibility.
We can debate the exact regulatory framework, antitrust implications, incentives etc. But dismissing every warning as self-interest assumes away the possibility that they are seeing something the rest of us aren’t.
@chamath I don’t think that’s what this is. This is people who can see where this is headed recognizing the risks and trying to be responsible about it.
@Jason@zerohedge@DarioAmodei You all keep spewing the same thoughtless shit while Dario, Sam, and Elon are all raising legitimate concerns about where this is headed. We know there’s no room for diversity of thought or opinion in your podcast… sick of the echo chamber.
We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so.

@quxiaoyin There are costs on both sides. Delaying beneficial technology can cost lives and racing ahead recklessly can cost lives too… potentially on a much larger scale. Any serious policy has to account for both.
I’m convinced genuine excitement is the key to life. Some people just have a light in their eyes. It’s an excitement for life. Not just for the highs, but also for the texture and friction of the lows. Hard to define, but you know it when you see it. Excitement is contagious.
I’m convinced that the most underrated trait in life is the willingness to change your mind. Certainty isn't strength. The most impressive people change their minds often in response to new information. It’s a software update. The goal isn't to be right. It's to find the truth.
