> Multiple representatives of an American company are publicly claiming that they’re building what they believe to be a weapon of mass destruction that they likely can’t prevent from accidentally deploying. They then declared that they have no interest in stopping.

There are like hundreds of companies in roughly amenable positions. In a just world, Microsoft/Apple/Google would hold themselves similarly culpable for building mass surveillance systems, but nobody seems to care. Silicon Valley lost their chance, China will develop this no matter what Congress says. OpenAI and Anthropic fucked themselves over financially and are signalling for a bailout.

OpenAI might have stolen another major proof
