Even given that, at a high enough price, the cost to the labs would be virtually guaranteed to be more than they would benefit from it, making it a good idea even if you are deontologically opposed to supporting AI companies.
Well, presumably, if the lab is willing to make the trade, they at least believe that they’re benefiting from the trade, on net.
I don’t have a strong opinion on what kinds of trades you should make with AI labs, but “set a tax high enough that it’s not worth it for the lab on net” doesn’t seem like a totally crazy deontological rule?
Sure, and my policy above doesn’t rule that out. The only thing I said is that there is some price for which we’ll do it (my guess is de-facto there are probably some clearing prices here, as opposed to zero, but that would be a different conversation).
I wish someone would link the comment in question by habryka. I remember reading it, but I can’t find it.
I think you said you “would not be supprised” or “expect it will happen” or something like that, that you would rent lighthaven to the labs. Which did not give me the impression that the tax would be very high from the lab’s perspective.
I do think anyone (including habryka) have the right to say “oops, that was badly written, here’s what I acctually men.”
But what was said in that original comment still matters for wether or not this was a reasobable thing to be concerned about, before the interactions in the comments here.
My impression after reading that old comment from you was much more in line with what Mikhail said. So I’m happy this got borugh up and clarified.
