    Oldest trick in the book. Once you’ve established yourself as a market leader, regulations strongly favour you over smaller competitors since you’re better prepared to comply with them, especially if you were involved in shaping them.You’ll gladly trade slightly reduced profit margins for prolonged market dominance.

    Thus, it makes sense to trigger regulations, even if it requires you to embellish the truth.

    I assumed that this was the case since Altman started moaning about dangers of AI waay back.

    I’m so baffled this has not been realised by people before, it’s so obvious and it’s not the first time in history it happens either.

    First of all Max Tegmark, it’s not even the slightest suspicious that his “non profit” organisation received millions of donations from Elon Musk? I have not figured out what Elons stake in this is yet but I have absolutely no doubt in my mind it’s economical, basically everything he ever did and said has been to manipulate the Stockmarket etc, I doubt that changed recently.

    Then you have OpenAI, that first and formost is everything but Open and very ProprietaryAI nowadays, and what seriously annoys me is that OpenAI in particular been “teasing” about “AGI in n days” etc on several occasions for what purpose if not to manipulate expectations and investors, yet they are one of the most driving in this matter- are people really that stupid that they can’t put together 1 and 1?
