That's just like saying that the pharma companies can't sell

medicines unless they can demonstrate that they're going to do more good than harm you know we treat every single other industry this way but ironically the ai companies have been so good at lobbying that they have this corporate welfare cut out where they're the only companies in america who can just release stuff legally even super intelligence tomorrow you know without having to

demonstrate any safety properties of what they do.

So just treating AI companies like we treat all other companies will already solve this problem.

Then we'll see an age of abundance where we continue seeing great technical innovations to make America strong and prosperous and healthy with tools.

And the super intelligence madness will come to a screeching halt because no company is going to be able to demonstrate that this is a tool.

I put my thumb up there because you're so right that the oligarchs in San Francisco keep using China as an excuse for why they should get to do whatever they want without accountability.

The truth of this race is that there are two races, of course.

There is a race for dominance, economic and military, and the way to race that race is with tools.

You don't win a race by losing control over your own tech and

destroying your own country.

So this is going to continue, this race to build more powerful AI tools, but in the meantime,

I think both the US and China, if we can perforate the lies, are going to stop pushing for superintelligence.

It won't come as any surprise to you, Steve, if I say that I think that the Chinese Communist Party is really into control.

So the last thing they're going to tolerate is some Chinese tech company, deep seek or anyone else building something that building some super intelligence that they will lose control over.

And that will overthrow the Chinese communist party and, and the rest of earth.

Right.

They're not going to allow that.

And I think when we have not SEC people in the U S who increasingly start to realize also that this is a national security threat to the U S government.

then neither of these countries are going to race to superintelligence anymore, but they will continue to race to AI tools for strengthening their economies and their militaries.
