tszzl argues that until a catastrophic grey-goo-level RSI event, every safety incident is a learning opportunity and warning shot that should be shared broadly and relatively blamelessly — treating them with extreme consternation counterintuitively reduces what the world learns.
gandamuml adds that OpenAI people they spoke with in 2022 (before ChatGPT was announceable) already agreed with this view: shipping early so society can understand and harden beats delaying, which only makes the eventual disruption more sudden.
