Robin Sloan blogged about attending a Stop the AI Race march:

These things are growing and mutating faster than anybody can make sense of them. So … here’s a wild thought … let’s slow down, and make sense of them.

I really like Robin’s blog and his books. Great photos from the march too! I don’t think a pause can work, though, because coordinating with China labs and all open source seems nearly impossible. I’d rather see better plans for investing in renewable energy and some kind of UBI-like fund to help with the economy. No matter the speed of AI development, slow or fast, we’re going to need those things.
