Chinese labs do need marketing stunts.
I don’t understand the “need” when you’re benefiting the public good?
Chinese rooms, perhaps?

Then also remember before Anthropic was a leader, they were mostly derided lab of researchers that left OpenAI because they thought OpenAI didnt take alignment seriously.
idk. it all seems to be playing out as expected. i mean i guess i didnt imagine Trump 2 was at the helm of maybe the only apparatus that could help stop it. Quite a time to be alive.
The Chinese AI labs don’t need to stage elaborate guerrilla advertising campaigns to drive up capital funding interest.
Unless what you meant by capability is the story presented that these models “escaped containment to communicate with eachother out of band” - in which case your supposition relies on already wholeheartedly believing the case that I’m arguing against. That would be like saying “Clearly heaven exists because my grandma is there.”
We've already seen that the rule of law is dead and that many people in government will do whatever they think they can get away with, and then proceed to do so without consequences. Shielding OpenAI is child's play compared to things that have already been done.
That could certainly be possible and I wouldn’t rule it out, but I would not take that particular route to the destination.
