The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed... "How will you pay for it?" The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts... "How much do you need?" It doesn't have to be this way.

I say again, any "pause/pacing/contemplative silence where AI CEOs think about what they've done and promise to be very good boys from now on" that doesn't result in ACTUAL enforcement mechanisms to hold them Several-Hundred-Billion-Dollars accountable any time their product fucks up is nigh useless
Screenshot of posts from me:

Chris, they trained a system to hack & got scared when it hacked. This is on human beings not being able to logically think through what they've built & what they then trained & told it to do; they'll never "solve alignment," because they can't get what human values they're trying to "align" "Al" To.

Hold the HUMANS accountable for what their systems do. The humans' companies and individual humans themselves.
