I’d like to hear from people who thought that AI companies would act increasingly reasonable (from an x-safety perspective) as AGI got closer. Is there still a viable defense of that position (e.g., that SamA being in his position / doing what he’s doing is just uniquely bad luck, not reflecting what is likely to be happening / will happen at other AI labs)?
Also, why is there so little discussion of x-safety culture at other AI labs? I asked on Twitter and did not get a single relevant response. Are other AI company employees also reluctant to speak out, if so that seems bad (every explanation I can think of seems bad, including default incentives + companies not proactively encouraging transparency).
