We is society through government via regulation. I don’t think GPUs or training will get that efficient that fast absent a distillation target provided by the easily accessible frontier lab APIs.
Further, even if you are right, so what. Is that a reason to just accept bad public policy? That’s like saying, anyone can learn how to make smallpox at home with a basic lab set up so we should just ignore any safety measures.
