AI safety group PauseAI issued a statement condemning Seb Krier, Google DeepMind's Head of Frontier Policy, for posting a meme they claim incites violence against AI safety advocates. They called on Google to take internal measures.

In response, blogger tracewoodgrains defended the meme, arguing that PauseAI's reaction is dishonest dust-kicking over an image never previously treated as a genuine threat. He labeled PauseAI as bad actors degrading the public commons, distinguishing them from sincere AI safety advocates.
