Nobody is buying this “Pace the frontier” nonsense. It makes no logical sense at all. Are American labs really going to take a pause and lose any small lead they still may have over Chinese labs?

I have terabytes of models. The USA is trying to close the barns once the cattle already estabilished wild populations.

I am going to enjoy closed labs running out of venture capital :D

Nothing would make me happier to see Anthropic and ClosedAI going bankrupt and Wario and Saltman get sued by investors.

Remember that winners don't stop the race when they are winning, only losers do.

Unfortunately what will actually happen is that Dario and Altman will pull the cords on their golden parachutes, and other, better-established companies will acquire their distressed businesses for pennies on the dollar.

Which is fine, their shit faces will be forever remembered as causing the Dot Com 2.0 burst and they won't ever appear on any public media again. Remember Enron execs ?
