"There's a >10% chance that this will kill everyone" is how you justify cutting R&D to investors who don't care if you kill a bunch of nobodies.
Is this an awkward time to point out that a properly functioning Securities & Exchange Commission would immediately open an investigation into three major corporations suddenly and openly agreeing to halt competitive development of their signature products?
Isn't it odd how no AI CEOs called for pacing the frontier when the internet flooded with deep fakes and revenge porn? Nor did they call for it when people got hurt or killed because an AI chatbot gave them misinformation, encouraged selfharm, or induced delusional behavior — isn't that odd?? And isn't it odd that militaries using AI to select civilian targets wasn't the cue to pace the frontier??? But the CEOs have IPOs coming up, and suddenly they all agree that now's the time to pace the frontier! ISN'T THAT ODD????
