Barnett questions how regulators would practically define and enforce boundaries
What if the skeptics are right and superintelligence is impossible? Great!
Then a proactive ban costs us nothing, prevents massive compute waste, and hurts no one.
But if they are wrong? We face an unrecoverable coordination failure with existential consequence.
@NPCollapse > Then a proactive ban costs us nothing
This depends on the ban correctly banning only "superintelligence" and not incidentally blocking other stuff. How would the ban actually be operationalized to achieve this?
