I agree, and even if it’s both marketing and safety, the safety side has a huge potential downside risk which we have to manage.

Also, just out of curiosity, is there any historical precedent for a nascent, fast growing new industry screaming for self regulation?

Couldn’t agree more. I feel my heart sinking where anytime anyone suggests any regulation for a potentially, suggested by multiple people, world changing or destroying tech, all the moments here are “ah you billionaire, ha! trickster

If you believed it, you would SHUT anthropic or release all models open source.”

And then what? How does that help with slowing down the frontier? Should he shut shop and then grovel Sam’s feet to make it work and become an activist?

Maybe he actually believes the world changing power of AI and hence shoved his entire time into it and half of it has worked out since Anthropic is going to be worth a trillion and he’s terrified of the other half being true too?
