This article (though undated) came out today, and it's interesting reading. I wouldn't say I agree with it about everything (and especially the discussion of AI Risk #4, which is just wrong-headed), but there's a lot of overlap with my own thinking. Especially this: "Big AI companies should be allowed to build AI as fast and aggressively as they can – but not allowed to achieve regulatory capture." And this: "Open source AI should be allowed to freely proliferate and compete with both big AI companies and startups." I don't agree that "there should be no regulatory barriers to open source whatsoever" - that would be stupid; it should be illegal to use AI for the things that are already illegal. But the sort of thing Apple pulled this week - more than 5,000 patents for the Vision Pro - should not be allowed in AI either.
