Elon also advocated for that when he launched grok. The generous interpretation of this is that Elon cares about humanity, the more likely one is that desperately needed time to catch up with competitors (who were all ahead), so it would be great for him if everyone else paused.

so does Sam. Does this mean there is seriousness to all this 'AI maybe dangerous for humanity' claim?

Wouldn’t it most likely mean their progress is slowing and they want to make it appear as a deliberate decision for the good of humanity instead of admitting growth follows a logistic curve in advance of their IPOs?

Interesting. But even Elon agrees now. Is it really a commercial intent or something deeper? Only non-speculative answer can come from someone inside these labs with nothing to gain or lose.

Closes person I can think of is Andrej (he agreed too).

"slow down... we need to slow down the competition, while putting full power on ours."
