I think this is exactly correct. I think that in many ways we are making, to some extent, the same mistake, and it's important that we do not make the same mistake. Therefore, fast action by government is extremely important. As I stated during my initial statement, the most important thing is to fully arrest the development of truly superintelligent, dangerous AI.
This is not an esoteric, small corner of the industry. This is a thing you can see being advertised by these companies' research departments as their primary goal. They go to parties and brag about building superintelligence. This is not a secret operation. This is a widely held thing, and it is something the government can act on now. Already, just acknowledging these risks and bringing them into both national and international discourse are the first steps to stigmatizing and potentially outlawing such dangerous developments, while opening the negotiating table for how to handle dual-use precursors.
This is a very difficult regulation challenge. This is why communications like those we're having today are so important. The first step, from my personal perspective, is the prevention of the creation of superintelligence both nationally and internationally, and then it's about moving towards sensible regulation of dual-use technologies and building on lessons that have been learned in other high-risk technological areas.
