Anatoli Kopadze(@AnatoliKopadze):after all these slowdown proposals, the godfather of AI finally weighs in: "it's very stupid to develop superintelligence before you know whether it's going to turn out nicely." his point is that AI is already almost impossible to control, and it's only getting smarter. a kill switch won't save us, because a superintelligence would just talk the person in charge out of pulling it. so the only real option left isn't a cage, it's building it so it actually likes us and wants us to reach our full potential. personally, that's the part that gets me, we went from "keep it under control" to "hope it's on our side." he's not even a pessimist, he calls himself hopeful, but says what we do now decides everything. what do you think about all this?

A day after saying AI could kill us all, Dario Amodei sat down for his first interview: "I would rather they make fun of me than to wake up one day and discover that someone used our model Claude to kill a bunch of people." He doubled down on everything, AI is on an exponential and we're at the bend where it gets steep, so we need to slow down, not stop. He wants third-party inspectors inside every AI lab, he confirmed Elon and Sam are on board, and he says the US and China need arms-control style talks like the nuclear era. Personally, I don't think this is all being done just to set up a favorable IPO, too many independent voices and direct competitors have backed him on it. Unfortunately we don't have access to the information Dario, Sam or Elon do, so for now we just have to take their word for it. What do you think about all this?
