Elie Bakouch pushed back on a jab comparing Jacob's AI extinction comments to asking an AC guy about climate change, calling it weird and unnecessary. He agrees more people should join the debate but notes an information asymmetry: OAI/Anthropic insiders hold far more data on frontier model acceleration. Replying to Clement Delangue, he suggests 'make the conversation more open.'
