When do you think would be a good time to lock in regulation? I personally doubt RSP-style regulation would even help, but the notion that now is too soon/risks locking in early sketches, strikes me as in some tension with e.g. Anthropic trying to automate AI research ASAP, Dario expecting ASL-4 systems between 2025—the current year!—and 2028, etc.
Here I am on record supporting SB-1047, along with many of my colleagues. I will continue to support specific proposed regulations if I think they would help, and oppose them if I think they would be harmful; asking “when” independent of “what” doesn’t make much sense to me and doesn’t seem to follow from anything I’ve said.
My claim is not “this is a bad time”, but rather “given the current state of the art, I tend to support framework/liability/etc regulations, and tend to oppose more-specific/exact-evals/etc regulations”. Obviously if the state of the art advanced enough that I thought the latter would be better for overall safety, I’d support them, and I’m glad that people are working on that.
