kalomaze Calls the 'Frontier Labs Will Be Nationalized' Argument Internally Incoherent
kalomaze · x · 2026-11-08
AI researcher kalomaze pushes back on the argument that frontier labs might become de facto nationalized as a primary revenue source:
- Fails on premise: it requires Democrats passing broad consumer-AI legislation strong enough to materially shift compute allocation — clearly outside the near-term Overton window.
- Fails on business logic: even under heavy regulation, labs would keep selling API access to businesses, which is where API revenue already comes from.
