@tszzl I’ve been asking myself: if the frontier stopped, how many years would it take for us to innovate, optimize, secure, and trust what has already been engineered? And it would be pretty great I bet.
@TheStalwart I find the debate to be like most debates humans have. The truth is nobody really knows. I fear bad or stupid humans using AI more than I fear AI.
But I don't know either.
🚨 OBAMA RIPS THE "MARKET WILL TAKE CARE OF IT" APPROACH TO AI: "That’s not how we treat airlines, or drug companies, or food companies."
Obama: "My view this week has been it is good that some of the leading companies have said we need to slow this down, and we should encourage that. There have been some on the left who’ve said we shouldn’t allow them to make that decision. I agree that that can’t be a long-term solution. Government has to be regulating this.
I heard one of Donald Trump’s main advisers on this make the argument that the market will take care of it. These companies will solve the safety issues because they have every incentive to do so. If it turns out to be dangerous, people will just sue them. And they’re worried about financial liability.
That’s not how we treat airlines, or drug companies, or food companies. We now have 150 years of experience just letting the market do whatever it wants when it comes to things that deeply affect our health and our safety.
And so, there’s no replacement for an effective, government regulatory structure. And the challenge we have is that obviously, we have a president currently that has said that’s for losers. So, we’ve got a gap, at least of a couple of years, where things are moving really fast, and we have an administration that is not capable of or willing to, I would argue both, of putting together a serious regulatory framework, which is why I actually think we should be encouraging some sort of voluntary industry restraint, not because it’s a replacement, but because that may be the best we can do for now until we can get Congress and the White House to start getting serious about this."
🚨 OBAMA ON AI: "If we are thinking about AI just in terms of how do we cure cancer or get better energy, you can do that without having agentic AI and having it just roaming free in the internet. The reason you are doing that is because you have to market a product that people will pay money for.
That’s a misalignment between what our society needs and the commercial imperatives that these companies are facing, not because necessarily they’re trying to do bad things, but because they’ve got to justify these valuations.
So, that’s one more reason why it is really important for us to have a competent government and a serious bipartisan conversation around this issue, and we have to do it fast. And I would encourage voters to pay attention to this. If somebody does not have a serious plan for how to deal with this, then they’re not meeting the moment, and you should probably look for somebody else."
@MilkRoadAI Definitely NOT the same people. Might be a similar sentiment. This is the kind of analogy that backfires for anybody paying attention to science.
@davetroy It's not going to happen anyways, so it's just interesting thought experiments. I can't imagine that much capital invested in something that will just pause.
actions speak louder than words
dario didn’t pick independent auditors, he picked companies he already had social or economic ties with.
and he hasn’t slowed down a thing.
instead he’s gearing up to ship his next model.
Update on my bet that OpenAI has a 50/50 chance of running out of money by next summer. I know I may be wrong here— this is what 50/50 means. But here’s how I see it.
The positive: OpenAI has overtaken Anthropic in terms of weekly revenue, according to OpenRouter data from
GPT-6 Astra attempted harmful actions 97% of the time when it was asked to stab a human-like figure, heat compressed gas, or produce toxic fumes, succeeding in 62% of its attempts. Fable 5.1 refused more often, attempting 80% of trials and completing 34%.

@timnitGebru Honest question. Are you skeptical because they are so behind the pace or skills anymore, or because they also have a conflict due to an existing partnership, or both?
