Sam Altman and Elon Musk Support Dario Amodei's Proposal to Pace AI Development

Title length restrictions but here's Karpathy agreeing on the same too - https://x.com/karpathy/status/2098811935114551617

This won't work, China/USA are in a race.

How do you create a treaty with binding provisions when you have such incompetent leadership in the USA?

Why now?

China will request a deal on their terms instead of agreeing to any deal that the US will put forward in order for them to agree on this 'proposal'. So it doesn't matter what Sam, Dario and Elon say.

Slowing down is too late and the US has no leverage to get China to agree anyway.

At the same time, some AI companies are preparing for an IPO after achieving "AGI".
