Anthropic and OpenAI delaying their IPO, because their S-1 will reveal that they are bleeding money, and have no path to profitability.
Solution? "AI slowdown", so they cut costs for training new models.
It has everything to do with IPO, and nothing to do with safety.
Something clearly happened with a frontier AI model that hasn't been made public and it spooked them so much that it made Elon Musk, Dario Amodei, and Sam Altman all simultaneously agree to slow down.
people having a crash out over elon and sam agreeing with dario need to understand that ai is going to be the biggest revolution in human history.
you don’t fuck around with the safety of something this powerful just because you want to win the race.
ai should move as fast as we can responsibly make it move.
but if capabilities are starting to outrun our ability to understand and control them, taking safety seriously isn’t “doomerism.”
it’s common fucking sense.
glad to see elon, sam and dario finally agree on this.
