> debating about whether and how we can reach AGI is moot

To the alignment/regulation debate, it’s essential. If there is AGI potential, OpenAI et al are privatised Manhattan Projects. That calls for swift action.

If, on the other hand, the risk is less about creating mecha Napoleon and more about whether building Wipro analyst analogues that burn as much energy as small nations is economically viable, we have better things to deliberate in the Congress.
