Re Manhattan project, somebody else would have figured it out, is there a side you'd rather had got there first? The cat was already out of the bag. More to the point, openAI makes chatbots that use matrix multiplication to provide believable sentences, and a few similar things. This isn't and never will be nuclear power. Nobody is working or, or close to, any sentient or dangerous AI (dangerous in a way that a regular computer program couldn't be). The applications in contemplation here are better searching, low end copywriting, some kind of smart assistant. (On a technical level, there's very cool stuff going on, but there is not societal risk, other than the fallout from s big hype bubble)
