In order to reduce the probability of someone intentionally or unintentionally bringing about a rogue AI, we need to increase governance and we should consider limiting access to the large-scale generalist AI systems that could be weaponized, which would mean that the code and neural net parameters would not be shared in open-source and some of the important engineering tricks to make them work would not be shared either. Ideally this would stay in the hands of neutral international organizations (think of a combination of IAEA and CERN for AI) that develop safe and beneficial AI systems that could also help us fight rogue AIs.

Releasing Spanish data into the public domain is a crucial step for enhancing the performance and accessibility of Spanish language models. This openness will not only democratize access to large-scale linguistic resources but also foster innovation and inclusivity in AI development. As we strive to build AI that benefits humanity, ensuring linguistic diversity in technology is fundamental.

I believe a CERN for AI could help democratize AI research and development, providing equitable opportunities for all participating nations. Establishing geopolitical parity in AI capabilities ensures that advancements in AI benefit everyone and reduce the risk of technological disparity exacerbating existing global inequalities.
