The situations aren’t equivalent - luckily in my opinion because the stakes with nuclear are much higher. von Neumann constructed a multinational game theory approach appropriate for weapons. AGI is a much harder problem to corral because there are so many benefits beyond just blowing up cities. But it’s also a much better thing to have for these very same reasons.

Similarly there have been few positive externalities from nuclear industry, making it easier to make the case to wind down research. This same set of concerns in biotech is much harder to get compliance with, precisely for this reason.

Anyway I’m especially wary of over analogizing to nuclear era concepts: I think they’re a trap.
