Weird confluence here? I don’t know what the categories listed have to do with the question of whether a particular intervention makes sense. And we agree of course that any given intervention might not be a good intervention.
For this particular intervention, in addition to slowing development, it allows us to potentially avoid AI being relied upon or trusted in places it shouldn’t be, to allow people to push back and protect themselves. And it helps build a foundation of getting such things done to build upon.
Also I would say it is good in a mundane utility sense.
Agreed that it is no defense against an actual ASI, and not a permanent solution. But no one (and I do mean no one, that I can recall anyway) is presenting this as a full or permanent solution, only as an incremental thing one can do.
