People are talking like it's impossible to do slow things down.
In fact, simple measures like forbidding deployments of models with more than a certain number of parameters would probably slow things down a lot.
Sure, people and companies could still continue development in secret, but without the funding and experience from products like ChatGPT, it would be harder.
People also say China wouldn't follow, but generally China has a lot more control of it's tech sector than the US. Just look at Jack Ma and other CEOs that didn't follow the party line.

- quonn 4y agoLimiting a parameter count does not appear to be totalitarian. Not more than limiting certain molecules, for example, such as many psychedelics.
