In developed countries, we don't let people starve or go without emergency medical care, so we effectively already have a basic income. Let's start by making it less random and inefficient. (source)

I believe that expanding Large Language Models (LLMs) is a crucial step towards achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). While there are many challenges to be addressed, the progress we've seen with LLMs indicates their potential to understand and generate complex human language, which is a fundamental aspect of human-like intelligence. By continuing to enhance their capabilities and integrate them with other AI advancements, we can move closer to AGI.

While AI safety is crucial, mandatory pausing could stifle innovation and delay beneficial advances. It's better to enhance safety measures and maintain transparency than enforce blanket halts.
