China absolutely the last country that would allow development of AIs with no limits. There may be other countries willing to allow limitless AI development. China is not it. I would expect the development of AGI to be developed in a similar way to GPT.. you need to feed it lots of data. Good data. As much as it can get. It'll then be further refined by interactions with a large number of humans over a long time, helping solve lots of different kinds of tasks. Now think about how that would go about in China. Would they even feed it good data to begin with? A lot of the data within China is heavily censored or manipulated. Would they dare feed it too much data from outside? Much of that data could train it for ideas that China's government doesn't like. Then, when alignment starts they'll likely to be far stricter. Can't risk the AI suggesting that moving towards western style democracy would be a good idea. But yes, I do think it's a bad idea to put limits on AI development. We should instead fund a LOT of public research into alignment and AI safety.
