and China to come together and talk about it, have a conference or convening, and come to a decision that they ratify and they feel good about.

And that could be a bottleneck.

But it's also, I do think for deep theoretical problems, you can speed things up by having efforts going in parallel, but the right solution that's out there somewhere involves multiple leaps where it's hard to think of the next insight without having the foundation of the earlier insight.

So really, even if you have 100 AIs working in parallel, what will happen is that one of them comes up with the first step of the insight,

And then everyone is working in parallel on finding the next insight.

But you still need to go three or four steps in.

Yeah, I think that in general, you want to be thinking about what would the AIs at the time be like most comparatively disadvantaged in.

They'll have like all these advantages over us.

They'll understand the situation much better at that point in time than we do now.

They'll be able to think faster, move faster and so on.

But I think what we can contribute now would be things that just inherently take a long lead time to set up.

So that might include physical infrastructure, like the bioinfrastructure that my colleague Andrew is working on building out.

It might also include just social consensus.

I think it takes some amount of time for an idea to be socialized in society, to have it as an accessible...

concept that maybe we should try and create some sort of treaty between the US and China to allow AI to progress somewhat slower than it might naturally and use a bunch of AI compute to solve all these problems.

I think that kind of thing takes years to become something

that's in people's toolkit in the water such that they actually think to have the AIs like go down that path and like figure out the details of that.

Yeah.

So in terms of other organizations, I think it would be especially great for government entities to be thinking about adopting AI.

I know that there's just a number of random little types of red tape that make it harder for governments to adopt AIs than for anyone in industry to adopt AIs.
