Amodei compared exporting AI chips to selling nuclear weapons.
@chris_j_paxton A better analogy would be repeatedly comparing cars to nuclear weapons, in which case you might reasonably expect the national security state to assert control over cars sooner or later. I don't think that's an "insane" take at all.
Insane take. I can say "cars should be safe to drive in" and not think that the government should be able to arbitrarily take my car off the road. Nothing in the universe is a binary
Users disliked Anthropic CEO Dario's comparisons of AI chip sales to nuclear weapons, calling the analogies terrible.
@nabeelqu I think the nuclear comparisons Dario uses are terrible, to be honest; but regulations about nuclear weapons aren't sudden or arbitrary!
