Why do you think China will ignore it? This is “it’s going too fast, we need some time”, and China also needs some time for all the same reason. For example, China is censoring Google with Great Firewall, so if Google is to be replaced by ChatGPT, they need time to prepare to censor ChatGPT. Great Firewall wasn’t built in a day. See Father of China’s Great Firewall raises concerns about ChatGPT-like services from SCMP.
I am saying it is Chinese government’s interest for Chinese labs to slow down, as well as other labs. I am curious which part you disagree:
a) Chinese government prioritizes social stability over technological development (my assessment: virtually certain) b) Chinese government is concerned technology like ChatGPT is a threat to social stability (my assessment: very likely, and they are in fact correct about this) c) Chinese government will need some time to prepare to neutralize technology like ChatGPT as a threat to social stability, as they neutralized Internet with Great Firewall (my assessment: very likely, they got surprised by pace of development as everyone else did)

Because it is in China’s interest that we slow down, not that it slows down.
