alt Hacker News> First: if they are unilaterally doing it: what about their competitors? Is this a chance for OpenAI to pass them?
The only part of this plan Dario is unilaterally committing to is the "embedded evaluators" thing, which doesn't seem like it'll necessarily cause them to slow down much.
Well: do they listen to the evaluators?
I think there are any number of reasons a "safety" person could be concerned about any state of the art models. And so I would expect at least one of those to apply to any model.
The question then is: do we stop when the safety people say to (they will) or not?
