I guess I’m expressing doubt about the viability of wise or cautious AI strategies, given our new e/acc world order, in which everyone who can, is sprinting uninhibitedly towards superintelligence.
e/acc does not poll well and there is widespread popular support for regulating AI (see AIPI polls). If the current government favors minimal regulations, that’s evidence that an AI safety candidate is more likely to succeed, not less.
(Although I’m not sure that follows because I think the non-notkilleveryonism variety of AI safety is more popular. Also Musk’s regulatory plan is polling well and I’m not sure if it differs from e.g. Vance’s plan.)
I don’t know what the regulatory plan is, I was just referring to this poll, which I didn’t read in full, I just read the title. Reading it now, it’s not so much a plan as a vision, and it’s not so much “Musk’s vision” as it is a viewpoint (that the poll claims is associated with Musk) in favor of regulating the risks of AI. Which is very different from JD Vance’s position; Vance’s position is closer to the one that does not poll well.

What plan are you referring to? Is this something AI safety specific?
