The UN secretary general yesterday said that he is like I think he's basically broadly in support of having an IAEA for AI which is a single regulatory body to help set guardrails around what these models can can't do. If you if you worry about China you should be very worried about open source because you can have companies like meta which spend a fortune to train the state of their models and then they just open source the state oftheir models so that China gets it right away. There's just a lot more complexity this than people realize but once we open source it it could be very very very hard to actually regulate it and control it moving forward.

Emerson Spartz has been building internet and media companies since starting MuggleNet, the world's largest Harry Potter fan site, when he was just 12 years old. He founded digital media company Dose which created some of the world's largest viral content sites. For the past few years, Emerson has been focused on AI, with a particular interest in AI safety, AI alignment and extinction risk. Despite being such a techno-optimist by nature that he's been yelled at for being a techno-optimist in books, he has come to have real concerns about the speed and way that AI is developing. In this sprawling conversation, Emerson provides a set of mental models he uses to try and understand AI broadly.
