Key facts
- Peter Henderson notes AI companies are being sued under antitrust law over "pacing the frontier" — allegedly coordinating to slow frontier progress and exclude competitors, as many predicted.
- Jonas Geiping observed the complaint itself appears AI-generated, highlighting the irony: a model writing arguments to restrain further models of its kind — though counter-arguments could equally be generated with the same models.
- JJitsev adds the open question of which AI-generated argument will win public favor.
