Suhail: pausing AI can't work — only acceleration, plus frontier 0-day tooling for defense
daniel_mac8 · x · 2026-10-24
Suhail argues pacing or pausing AI is impractical; the only viable path is significant acceleration, so that a nation's own superintelligence can defend it when others catch up.
On cybersecurity:
- Sweeping systems for vulnerabilities fails because hardly anyone sweeps every package and its transitive dependencies
- Attackers already use frontier harnesses, tools, and mixes of open and closed models to build exploit-finding tooling
- Conclusion: accelerate building defensive 0-day tooling now
