This feels very counterproductive?

Like, from an "AI safety" perspective, scaling current techniques to even bigger compute -> earlier superintelligence -> more risk.

And from an "AI openness" perspective, it increases the divide between megacorps and plebs.

honest question, what’s the alternative path?

on the less radical option, hopeful that it’s simply too steep of an ask to fulfill over time without completely disrupting global hardware demand

<radical>

Globally abolish patent laws and nullify NDAs for anything computer-hardware related. Would reduce incentive to make the next version in the short-term, and at the same time make that whole industry less fragile.

(less radical: just don't do the $7T computer hardware thing)
