Amodei never asked Trump to do this, he asked for an approval process to get powerful models safely in the hands of the public.

It's a shame HN's critical thinking has gone to shit though.

That's what happens when you beg for government's involvement. They might get involved, but not on your terms.

Although I do believe Anthropic knew this and this kind of involvement is still beneficial to them, as it still slows down competition, which is their sole objective when you brush off marketing sprinkles from their statements.

Safety testing of frontier LLMs does not slow down the competition any more than it slows down Anthropic. It does prevent them from doing dumb things like releasing zero day buttons into the wild, though.

Yeah, you're right. I guess there are other sites, though, where you might feel more at home. Maybe explore a few of those when you're done insulting the people here who told you exactly what was going to happen.

In the meantime, there are a lot of classic morality tales in which deals with the Devil don't work out quite the way the protagonists hoped they would. These stories go back thousands of years, spanning a wide range of creeds, faiths, and cultures. You (and Dario) have some offline reading to do.
