This ban in particular is probably the wrong decision, but now we're in the timeline where the USG is actively involved in AI model deployment which I think is a positive development within Amodei's beliefs. And I say this unironically and without judgement.

No this is bad

What you want is a neutral regulatory framework that markets can plan against. Not random executive action that can easily be abused.

Yes it is bad, but if you believe some version of the most extreme forecasts of this tech then a government paying attention and doing some stupid things may be better than one that doesn't pay attention and is letting it rip.

I'm not saying I believe that or that Amodei thinks this decision is reasonable.
