Executive summary: Competition can drive innovation but also create traps that lead to lose-lose outcomes. This dynamic is happening in AI and needs wise leadership to avoid catastrophe.
Key points:
AI filters create body dysmorphia. News media sensationalizes. These competitions lead to lose-lose outcomes.
Many global problems like pollution arise from misaligned incentives and game theory.
The AI race risks sacrificing safety in pursuit of capabilities. This is like a trap set by the ancient god Moloch.
Historical treaties show we can coordinate to escape traps. AI leaders should focus on alignment and safety.
Steps like Anthropic’s scaling policy point the way, but much more leadership is needed to avoid catastrophe.
We must change the AI game into a race to the top of safety and ethics.
