»Slow down AI« sounds noble until you ask who actually slows down: Democracies and companies that comply simply hand the advantage to rivals that don’t. History suggests voluntary technological restraint rarely wins against geopolitical competition. The race doesn’t stop: it just changes leaders.

Ah, yes. We can’t stop because the ‘bad guys’ won’t. God forbid anyone win the technological arms race other than the land of the once free and the now cowed. If another country wins global dominance they might treat the US the way the US has treated the rest of the world, and that would be unthinkable.

I don’t think @eicker put all that much thought into that comment lol

It’s funny that you still believe some tool could tell, with such short texts, whether they were written by an AI or a human. (And unfortunately, even with very long texts, this is no longer reliably possible, which is why some universities have recently stopped using such tests.)
