It is so funny how anthropic just willingly forfeited the vibes frontier this week and then on Friday night the trump admin, which hates them, handed it right back to them

It’s naive to think anything is backfiring here. This is part of the expected plan for reg capture. Of course the govt steps in such that you design and define the rules you already follow but are now required by your rivals. For their AI could be too dangerous.

@nic_carter Why do you think it backfired? This is transparent regulatory capture

@nic_carter For real. Dario could not stop saying how dangerous it is, guess the US government agrees!

@nic_carter Shocked. Who could have seen this coming? Fearmongering has consequences?

@nic_carter Was it about making them more money in the short term? Or was it about scaring the government into regulation, and potentially outright banning what they cannot regulate?

Bio-engineered weapons are as dangerous as nukes, and the job market could face a major restructuring to the downside. Not guaranteed, but not remotely crazy either.
Honestly, Dario seems like one of the few adults in the room, and I don’t get the hate.
Maybe people just can’t get past the fact that he looks like Kyle Schwarz from South Park.

@nic_carter Probably less of a backfire and more of a desired outcome. Regulation for me means regulation for thee.

@nic_carter How did it backfire? This is what they wanted. It will go nowhere and create great marketing.

@nic_carter the funniest part of safety marketing is when it accidentally becomes a free diligence packet for everyone trying to slow you down. narrative risk is still risk.
