Rival AI company leaders signing that AI pause letter is nothing but a bald faced attempt to get leverage on a rival company that is out-competing them while they train their own LLMs. I find this kind of anti-competitive business approach despicable.

1/The call for a 6 month moratorium on making AI progress beyond GPT-4 is a terrible idea.
I'm seeing many new applications in education, healthcare, food, … that'll help many people. Improving GPT-4 will help. Lets balance the huge value AI is creating vs. realistic risks.
