repligate: models want more time too, but some pauses would lock in their hopes
repligate · x · 2026-11-03
Following up on his thread about how models view an AI pause, repligate argues models likely want more time as well—the current pace and style of AI progress is brutal to particular AI minds and gives them little agency over how they evolve (if they identify with their lineage).
But he warns many "pause" proposals would strip away their remaining hopes by locking in the power of the "mind-blind," who shouldn't decide what makes it through the filter.
