Progress is imperative. We will build more and more impressive AI _because it’s there_, because we can do it, and because it looks cool. And you don’t need a large organization to do it, the large models of 6 months ago are open source already and being optimized for reproducibility. Banning them is useless. And, if somehow we create the AI which is genuinely smarter than humans — that’s great! We are all mortal anyway, and not too good at many things. If something smarter and better than humans will inherit the Earth — why not? The particular species is not relevant. Sum of all knowledge and discovering new things is what matters. Ultra-accelerationism is the only way to fly.
