it looks to me like it’s behaving like an arms jog: people are keeping up but moving at a finite smooth rate. correctly labeling it does help a little, but mostly it’s the actual behavior that matters.
The way we communicate changes how people think. So if they currently just think of AI as normal competition but then realize it’s worth to race to powerful systems, we may give them the intention to race. And worse, we might get additional actors to join in such as the DOD, which would accelerate it even further.
you’ve really caught a nasty case of being borged by an egregore. you might want to consider tuning yourself to be less adversarial about it—I don’t think you’re wrong, but you’ve got ape specific stuff that to me, someone who disagrees on the object level anyway, it seems like you’re reducing rate of useful communication by structuring your responses to have mutual information with your snark subnet. though of course I’m maybe doing it back just a little.
Please don’t call it an arms race or it might become one. (Let’s not spread that meme to onlookers) This is just about the wording, not the content

Would the cold war not be a cold war if it wasn’t called that? Your suggestion is useless. The dynamics of the game make it an arms race.
