OpenAI's statement on "governance of superintelligence" is basically "in our humble opinion you should regulate AI, but not *our* company's AI which is good, but instead only imaginary evil AI that exists only in the nightmares you have after reading too many Sci-Fi books, and the regulatory framework you choose should be this laughably guaranteed-to-fail regulatory framework which we designed here on a napkin while laughing" https://openai.com/blog/governance-of-superintelligence
Governance of superintelligence

Now is a good time to start thinking about the governance of superintelligence—future AI systems dramatically more capable than even AGI.

@Pwnallthethings Saved the best for last:
"Second, we believe it would be unintuitively risky and difficult to stop the creation of superintelligence. Because the upsides are so tremendous, the cost to build it decreases each year, the number of actors building it is rapidly increasing, and it’s inherently part of the technological path we are on, stopping it would require something like a global surveillance regime, and even that isn’t guaranteed to work. So we have to get it right." 🤡💨

@misc @Pwnallthethings They are demanding a public policy solution to a problem they claim is inevitable? I...

Look, I can understand speedrunning policy problems, I get it, but intentionally creating them by deliberately introducing market failures before the market has fully formed?

And these are the so-called tech libertarians...I am mildly amused.
