But the idea of asking AI labs to slow down just doesn't seem practical or implementable to me. Especially in this frankly competitive business environment with labs and countries trying to build advanced technologies and creating a lot of value. And the only thing worse than that would be if government steps in to pass legislations to pause AI, which would be really terrible innovation policy. I can't imagine it being a good idea for government to pass laws to slow down progress of technology that even the governments, and frankly, even that don't fully understand.
