Any capability WILL proliferate in the wild - strategies that entail risk of ruin, in the limit... - Closed source really still has this problem, but without the *necessity* of proliferation and with lower rates again (through more controls on the API) Could mount a defense on offense-defense asymmetry / NON-dual-use nature - But like... come on Inference time is the killer here. Analogy to 2A debate: your gun will not defeat a determined, well-resource regime. - What are the minimum requirements for this to hold up? - Compute as a finite resource (at a given point in time) - Competition for that resource? Reference class fallacies: this *isn't* analogous to other technologies
