We can start with a US law. It would cover AI model companies with almost all the money and the GPUs, which is most of the frontier. We can also probably convince our allies, which combined represents most of the world market.

No, it rests on the idea that almost all of the money, most of the people, and the GPUs are here. Any country would be able to take the open weights and keep going in private. But countries like China can already do that today, since the we

Laws don't extend to the whole world, but markets do. The law should apply to anyone selling model access to Americans, the same way GDPR applies to US companies selling to Europeans. Frontier development won't simply move offshor

> Forcing the weights to be opened to the world accomplishes the opposite of all of that. The argument is incoherent. Or this author doesn’t understand the topic at all? Or maybe you understand less than you think? Frontier progress is

I explained this in the post. He seems like a genuinely good person who might actually do something this great.

Author here. It's a law, so nobody has to agree to anything. If want to sell access to a model, you have to open the weights. It's Dario's plan that depends on every lab in the world agreeing. Step #2 of his essay is "de

If you have more than one account, you should suspect this was your own confusion. Users constantly report errors like this that are really just them being confused by something, perhaps a bad UI that really is to blame.

The entirety of the coding evals are just 7 trivial coding tasks in Python? This is a joke.

Watermarking will be one more nail in the coffin of proprietary models if the world is so fortunate. Reminds me of printer tracking dots. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots

NSA's job is SIGINT, so it's at least partly their responsibility when the threat is foreign. For example, the NSA should be successfully infiltrating every major foreign hacking team in the world and monitoring and/or disrup

With coding agents now being used for hacking, there's a decent chance we'll see a 9/11-scale hacking incident as a result of NSA/DHS negligence in securing American internet-connected services. Similar to how the CIA&#x

It's just silly to guess at how a system works, or should work, without digging into the details. Because you simply don't know what you don't know.

There are different kinds of founders in Silicon Valley now. Some are more like founders from the previous generation, like Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak. Others are more like Elizabeth Holmes and Adam Neumann. There are lots of earnest, sin

Our government condemns and even demolishes people's houses when they're dangerous or become a public nuisances because their owners fail to maintain them. Most Americans agree with this policy and don't see it as infringing

What I'm calling for is exactly how things are already supposed to work. The US government should already be infiltrating hacker groups and identifying infected American computers. Internet providers should be informing customers that

Humanity discovered a technique for compressing the world's information into a few files that fit on a USB drive. It's just insane that some people thought they'd get to be the only ones who get to possess them.

- Actual data and identity loss of American citizens. - Malware that can record video and audio from infected devices. - Infrastructure for foreign covert influence campaigns. - Botnets used in hacking and DoS attacks.

Not sure how it would? Because the bad actors are remotely instructing infected computers/devices to make HTTP/TLS requests for them, so they appear totally normal to the other side.
