And yet we're sitting here questioning whether covid was man made and there's serious speculation human genome experimentation is active in some parts of the world...

This just results in the researchers/countries who take the moral high road being left behind thus giving those who continue to do research a competitive advantage.
- NumberWangMan 4y agoI think the USA is far and away the most reckless here, and has the most funding. China is not having letting their AI labs release all the new models publicly, and in fact, our research is helping them develop it faster, since US companies are open sourcing everything. (Hey, let's develop tech more dangerous than nukes and share it!) There is no arms race, we're all in a car driving straight toward a cliff, with everyone fighting to press the gas pedal harder. We need to stop, hard.
