What's with these naive Reddit-esque takes all over HN?
It was "these models will one day be dangerous, but we think it's possible to build them safely, doing more good than harm."

Someone disagreeing with you doesn't make it reddit.
Two days ago Antheopic's CEO made a lengthy post calling for most government oversight on AI. He even mentions support export controls, even though he wanted them applied only to chops [1].
Anthropic literally asked for this, though they might have hoped it wouldn't be used against themselves.

Disagreeing is great. Its the basis of all progress and understanding.
Its how someone disagrees with you that matters. I come to HN to read more mature and nuanced disagreements.
You didn't read your own link. He called for a transparent testing process prior to releasing frontier LLMs into the wild. Export controls on chips to slow down China, which makes sense if you believe that chips are the way to superintelligence and the PRC will not be the best steward of it.
To be fair to Anthropic it’s not really a frontier model at this point.
But I’m glad the government took his claims seriously and the models are suspended until an appropriate regulatory framework can be developed.
That might be an even more naive take.
Can you show me one space, historically, in any industry, where a company climbed to the top of a market solely on altruistic intentions?
It’s literally what they said.
Now there’s appropriate safe guards around the dangerous for humanity models they made.
Thankfully government is looking out for us.
