Claim: labs hoard powerful internal models to keep their RSI edge, not for safety
iruletheworldmo · x · 2026-11-07
X user iruletheworldmo argues that AI labs holding back powerful internal models is really about preserving their recursive self-improvement (RSI) advantage, not safety.
His reasoning: if labs genuinely worried about loss of control, they would pace internal progress rather than withhold releases. He calls on the community to openly call this out. Note this is a personal claim without evidence.
