Dear US AI labs, we don't care
It's great that there's so much competition and progress in the generative AI space the past few years, but I can't be alone when I say that I'm getting really sick of the drama coming from US frontier AI labs. It's annoying how they pump out a constant stream of OMG-the-sky-is-falling stories that would make the boy-who-cried-wolf blush. It's been incredibly obvious for years now the political and financial games that they are playing and it's unfortunate that, as part of this, they need to fuel an AI psychosis that makes it very hard to ignore them if you have even tangential involvement in the tech industry. Here's to hoping they achieve whatever they're trying to achieve (political protection & exit liquidity) soon or quickly fail trying so that we can go back to our regularly scheduled programming.
