Can anyone really stop AI development right now? Even if you somehow can force OpenAI to pause, you think the Pentagon or the CCP will not run their own program

Can anyone really stop AI development right now? Even if you somehow can force OpenAI to pause, you think the Pentagon or the CCP will not run their own program in secret? Tencent already has a working LLM specifically for the Chinese. Many AI researchers are Chinese or Indian.
This tech is out of control already. Nothing can stop it. Instead of wasting breath on that, focus the effort on something more important, like the alignment problem. At least that would bring more benefit.
