Super interesting! BTW I'm not sure I've seen Meta releasing AI stuff under a research license for a while. What's the reasoning behind that?

Sensible AI Governance Approach Over Extreme Regulation

Autonomous AI versus human-augmented systems: policy implications
By
–
No, a system that is extremely powerful with the addition of human input is quite different to one that's fully autonomous. "Stop racing to ASI" is an outcome of policies, not a policy itself. If it was, this would all be very straightforward.

By
–
The solution to societal destabilization due to massive increases in power is to give that power to a small number of good people—such as people who are really rich, powerful, and good at getting people to give them power. (That's how society actually ran for centuries BTW.)

ASI Alignment Requires Prior Political and Social Coordination
By
–
So ASI alignment is only interesting and important if we can *first* achieve political and social alignment of near-ASI technology. (If we navigate that successfully, then we'll actually be better placed to handle ASI as a global community anyway.)

By
–
At this point, if it is used to consolidate power and create a permanent feudal system where 99.999% of humanity live in misery and can't do anything about it, then that's a problem.

–
If there's some speculative future scenario where ASI is so powerful that humans can no longer control it, then there's an intermediate point before that where it's still extremely powerful, but humans still can control it.
