iamtrask: Antitrust May Be the Most Important AI Safety Strategy — and It Speeds Up Innovation
iamtrask · x · 2026-09-20
iamtrask argues that antitrust may be the most important AI safety strategy, with the double benefit of increasing the pace of innovation. He finds it paradoxical that the safety community opposes antitrust lawsuits whose explicit purpose is to deconcentrate power. His proposed framework: to reduce AI risks while maximizing benefits, create competition for narrow AIs while slowing down general AIs.
