Jack Clark from anthropic was asked about some version of this on the BBC recently, and his reply was basically: If you're not at the frontier, you don't know what the frontier looks like, he implied that many models are simply not good enough yet to encounter some of the things the leadings labs are encountering. I've been friends with Jack over 15 years now so I'm inclined to take him at his word, and the rebuttal seems reasonable enough, although... something about it I can't put my finger on feels peculiar to me. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PY8MOhlqC4U" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PY8MOhlqC4U

That's all I needed to hear to completely disregard your motivated reasoning.
Edit: I've hit the rate limit, but I'd like to disavow the bad-faith accusations made against me and my account in the replies to this comment.
