- Reacting to Ben Todd's claim that OpenAI has proven it can't be trusted to disclose safety incidents, a commenter proposes handing out $100 million fines: "you don't take the car to court, you take the person driving it."
- Another reply does the math: $100M is roughly one day of revenue for frontier AI labs today — and could shrink to about six hours next year and perhaps an hour the year after, underscoring how weak current penalty scales may be.
