Sure, but it still required a joint decision and international cooperation.
AI is also a heavily concentrated industry with only has a handful of labs with frontier models all in the same country. You could fairly easily largely pause them for a little while at least if you wanted to. I’m not saying this is a good idea or that itwould solve alignment, but it wouldn’t actually be that hard.
I think it’s helpful to look at successes even if there’s aren’t so many parallels with current big problems. We can underrate how doable big problems are if the political will is there.
