Following up on his 'Accelerating the Frontier' series, Ben Todd posted a tongue-in-cheek call to 'demand that OpenAI and Anthropic race to Superintelligence as quickly as possible, for all our sakes'.
It extends his argument that the labs' safety-framed 'pacing the frontier' is really power consolidation, and that acceleration serves the public interest.
