AI CEOs agree on pace in principle, but the real test comes when slowing down costs market share

AI news commentator eyishazyer weighs in on the recent wave of AI CEOs agreeing in principle on development pace. He notes that while everyone uses the word "pace," there is no agreement on who sets it, whether China would actually match it, or what happens to labs that pace themselves while competitors don't. His read: the CEOs' agreement currently costs nothing — the real test is whether any of them slow down when it actually means losing market share.
