Because they believe that, they think it's going to kind of get to just more or less GPT-4++ and then that's it.
They don't see it as a suicide race.
They think whoever gets that first, they're going to control the world, they're going to win.
That's not how it's going to be.
And we can talk again about the scientific arguments from why it's not going to stop there.
But
The way it's going to be is if anybody completely loses control and, you know, you don't care if someone manages to take over the world who really doesn't share your goals, you probably don't really even care very much about what nationality they have.
You're not going to like it.
It's much worse than today.
If you live in Orwellian dystopia, what do you care who created it, right?

Quit while we're ahead.
It's a suicide race.
