tl;dr: significant near term AI risk is real and comes from the capacity for imagined ideas, good and evil, to be autonomously executed on by agentic AI, not emergent superintelligent aliens. To de-risk this, we need to align AI quickly, which requires producing new knowledge. To accelerate the production of this knowledge, the government should abandon decelerationist policies and incentivize incremental alignment R&D by AI companies. And, critically, a new public/private research institution should be formed that grants privileged, fully funded investigators multi-year funding cycles with total scientific freedom and access to all state-of-the-art artificial intelligence systems operating under US law to maximize AI as a force multiplier in their research.
