Another Karp heater: the AI labs have repped themselves as if they do not have the sense God gave a goat, so Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are just monetizing it. https://t.co/6V93MzdmLx

This is Trust & Safety 2.0.
The last time we had media-generated panics like this (with Russiagate and Covid), social media companies created “trust & safety” teams to censor conservative and dissident voices. Those hires worked with left-wing NGOs like the SPLC to police public

Joe Lonsdale: “These companies should be held extremely liable for any damage they do. We shouldn't be putting regulators in. They're just going to get captured... The right should be against regulation, but for liability to hold companies accountable.” https://t.co/cchKb6XZdq

@DavidSacks The answer is never more government. Putting retards in charge of rule making who have to explain that AI is two letters that mean artificial intelligence is a path to destruction.

Mark Zuckerberg: “Meta delayed shipping Muse for several months to focus on safety and security. We didn't call for everyone else to do this before we would. We just did it as part of our day-to-day work because it was clearly the right thing for people and for us.”

Dario has written that we need to “pace the frontier,” and Sam has agreed. People may be surprised by my response: go ahead.

“We had the gloom and doom about jobs. ‘All jobs are going away. There won't be any jobs left for humans.' All the evidence as of today is to the contrary. Every single piece of evidence. If anything, it's creating jobs. So they’re 0 for 1 on that.” https://t.co/OUsGK4vvjH
