AI stuff I find more interesting to think about than AGI safety https://i.imgur.com/pMbgKWs.png

There are lots of things more interesting about nuclear power than nonproliferation, but I’m still pretty happy those discussions led to reasonable actions over the past 70 years.

That’s a straw man, nonproliferation of arms =/= regulation on power plant development. The latter mostly came due to overzealous environmental activism post Chernobyl.

And we have the benefit of living in a world that has not yet blown up, very likely due to slowing the spread of who owns the technology.

Disagree. Nuclear power "regulations" have meant we've built virtually no new nuclear power capacity since the 1970s (other than what had already been approved).
