If America and China can work together on #AI# safety, the world gets safer. If they don’t, both sides and the world lose.😔
The US-China AI dialogues restart next week in Shenzhen. There are some people who are putting political agendas ahead of public safety at this moment because they think they are helping the country “win”, but ultimately they are helping bad actors with powerful tools and making runaway AI even more likely.🚨
More details in this week’s #BigBangTechReport# 👇

Nobody can tell you today who is liable when an AI chatbot or agent causes harm in the real world.🚨
That gap shapes behavior. If the AI labs keep all the winnings and your losses get socialized, you bet bigger. Every hand by AI labs becomes an all-in hand. 🃏 When there is no downside, nobody has a reason to police themselves.
Clear liability laws isn't anti-innovation. It's what makes builders take risk seriously. And what builds trust with customers to want to diffuse faster!
Here more in my discussion with @sonusvarghese @RyanDetrick on the Facts and Feelings podcast. 🎙️

Nobody won the electricity race. We all got electricity. #AI# is the same. Software that wants to be everywhere, now small enough to run on a Mac Studio and soon a laptop.
The biggest misconception driving bad policy is the arms-race story: a finish line, one winner, winner takes all, and zero-sum world. None of that is true. It misallocates capital and makes the tech less safe.
The threat that matters is not state-on-state AGI. It is non-state actors with small, specialized models. It’s Chem/Bio models on a laptop.
Cooperation is the only path forward. We can’t compete our way out of the bad actor risk problem.
Please have a watch of the full episode of my conversation with @natebjones on the U.S. China AI Race.

Was a bit surreal taking an interview live with @BBCNews about @OpenAI’s new Astra model while camping at @burningman. 😅
Fittingly, have been doing field research all week on the potential implications of Burning Man culture and gifting economy to an AGI enabled post-monetary world. Watch for the paper when it’s out. 💡

Good to see @SCMPNews calling out #Anthropic# on their fear mongering in the new “2028: Two Scenarios” paper. 🚨 It’s a dangerous and irresponsible game to play gambling with global stability and #AI# safety for their own gain. Nice to see both my friend @kyleichan and I were quoted.💡
Nice piece @vince_chow1 .
