Honestly wouldn't mind if AI dev hit the brakes right now. What we've got is already insanely powerful but barely tapped into.

But let's be real: even if there's some global AI slowdown agreement, you think govs and corps with defense contracts are actually gonna stop? Nah.

Most likely scenario: normies get the neutered ChatGPT lite version while military-industrial complex quietly builds AGI in the shadows.

That's the dystopian endgame and probably where we're headed. Two-tier AI world incoming.
