Here’s How an AI Slowdown An AI Slowdown Could Be Enforced

Solutions to technical problems have never been dealt with successfully by laws that cannot be _universally_ enforced.

Materials and research restrictions have never had to deal with stopping intelligence itself, which was previously just a catalyst (weapons creation by a human).

Fundamentally the only way to prevent this issue is to now do the opposite of what is being suggested and accelerate research.

This

- ensures nobody gets a competitive advantage.

- ensures rogue states don't get an advantage.

- allows war games scenarios before they happen.

- allows for pre-emptive defence designs (e.g. AI agents forming part of network defence).

- allows humans to feel actual benefits of less work

- allows cure and new science we have never had before

- teaches tolerance of AI mistakes and how we will deal with the fallout from things like accidental and non human hacks we've never had experience of dealing with.

And if that doesn't work, it just hastens what will happen anyway from people or companies going rogue - if the most funded companies in the world can't control frontier AI what chance does an underfunded one have?

So as I see it, there's no real way out of this now but through. We just need the world to realise this is the new norm, instead of doom mongering which really is just to allow big companies to legislate and stifle competition.
