What if the skeptics are right and superintelligence is impossible? Great! Then a proactive ban costs us nothing, prevents massive compute waste, and hurts no one. But if they are wrong? We face an unrecoverable coordination failure with existential consequence. A common argument against AI regulation asks what happens if superintelligence (ASI) is impossible. This clip from @Siliconvos covers many of the paths to ASI that an AI model could take, and why it's likely NOT impossible. But if it turns out it IS impossible, why regulate it?
