YuchenjUW notes it's shocking that Dario Amodei, Elon Musk, and Sam Altman all agree we should slow the pace of AI. While generally supportive of embedded third-party evaluators like METR, he raises concerns: who evaluates the evaluators, and how to keep such groups fair and unbiased — plus the tension between slowing progress and frontier labs' incentives. Replying, gethackteam objects: "We don't need a second Europe," arguing countries like China are not slowing down.
