    It's a really strange decision to choose the security council as the forum, given its purpose.

    I think the reasonable thing would have been to let some sort of committee of interested countries to have access to a bunch of relevant. It could still be public and in video form.

    I like the call for ensuring that AI isn't concentrated in one company or country though. I would be happy if this were followed, with appropriate EU efforts to make good training accelerators etc. so that we could have our own reasonable 10T+ models.

    I've poo-pooed the bio stuff earlier, but I think I agree with the threat to some degree, but I still absolutely hate the idea of central control of models, probably because it's still central control.

    I mean ... just stop shipping and building it if it is so dangerous. Easy peasy. Perfectly doable by literally you.

      Is your idea that other groups (who have stated less concerned with AI safety) would stop their own AI efforts of those concerned with AI safety stopped?
