It's pretty simple. You're hearing "We're so scared of the AIs, we need to reign them in" from the very US companies building and selling them for two reasons:
- They're about to IPO, and it's amazing marketing for them
- They want a regulatory moat, since they're deeply worried about the open weight LLMs. They want everyone dependent on this tech and to be *the only ones legally permitted to dispense it*.@cwebber I'm writing an explainer on this. Should be out in the next day or so. I broke it down into four main parties: OpenAI/SpaceX/Anthropic; capital markets, the US government, and creepy nerds.

@brunogirin @cwebber I mean, almost by definition!

@Lily_and_frog @cwebber @FantasticalEconomics but...if it kills everyone.... Do you see where I'm going with this?
@mk30 @Lily_and_frog @cwebber @FantasticalEconomics rich people don't understand that they're also mortal. To them, it's the "kill everyone but me" machine, their favorite type!

@raphaelmorgan @Lily_and_frog @cwebber @FantasticalEconomics so far this is the only answer that makes some sense.

Tort law manipulation in disguise.
The fossil fuel industry & its shills in AI want what the gun lobby got; the impunity to mass murder

Yet again the progressives self-own by blindly going the opposite direction of whatever capital is saying
-
@cwebber so, I tend to agree with this pov.
But the current AI safety conversation started when an ex-Anthropic researcher said he was scared, which doesn't fit the corporate astroturfing narrative.

@cwebber I suspect also that they would like to reign in their outrageous R&D costs.
They know their customers are not loyal and are sensitive to both price and perceived quality.
Establishing an anticompetitive cabal fixes that problem.
@aoristdual @cwebber rein: horses and LLMs
reign: kingsThank you for coming to my TED talk.

@mcc > Gödel said you can be complete *or* consistent.
ah is this why good backwards compatibility is at odds with a compact interface
