Regardless of what policies the U.S. adopts, the technology of large AI systems is going to continue to advance at a global level. It is far better for the U.S. to remain at the forefront of AI—advancing the state of the art, and using that knowledge to better identify and mitigate risks—than for the U.S. government to attempt to impose a legally dubious, unenforceable, and easily circumvented nationwide halt on work on training large AI systems.
