It is ironic to see a clearly AI-generated post calling to stop AI development.

Many replies are calling this out. Though it hurts to see one of them literally screen-capping and circling an em-dash and acting as if it were impossible for humans to produce this glyph in text on the Internet. It took me hardly any effort to find, for example, https://x.com/BernieSanders/status/1149022063925088256 from 2019 using an em-dash.

Turn down for what?

This is silly.

How about coming up with some policies with teeth that force the desired societal outcomes instead of pouring water on the fire before knowing what cooks? You can't slow R&D with policy, and model providers shouldn't be responsible for being daddy government and the police. When people do bad things with models, punish the people responsible. This is like wanting to restrict books because they have dangerous information within.
