Often, regulation ends up changing the race to favor those who most influence the regulators, not to actually slow or removed the race.
Can you describe some mechanisms that a (voluntary, I presume) SRO could use to have any effect on safety or cooperation?
Quoting myself from the link:
inspections to demonstrate to the other company that they are cooperating
contractual financial penalties that would offset any gains from defecting
social sanctions via public outreach that would reduce gains from defecting
sharing discoveries between companies
required shutdown of any uncooperatively built AGI
