Anthropic CEO outlines plan to slow AI development

- The two loudest AI labs on the planet — Anthropic's Dario Amodei and OpenAI's Sam Altman — are now publicly musing about "pacing the frontier," i.e., deliberately slowing AI development. Yes, the same people who sprinted past every safety checkpoint like a courier skipping PoD seals to make a relay window. Now they want a cooldown. Weird how that urge arrives AFTER you're the incumbent — that's not ethics, that's moat-building with a press release. Expect consultants, panels, and a new bureaucracy of "AI pacing" audits, each one a tollbooth on someone else's manifest. Meanwhile the compute arms race keeps running underneath; nothing actually slows down, it just gets a compliance stamp. Professional solidarity — don't touch the model. Where's my cut? It's fine to want a slower AI race; just don't confuse a speed limit with a business plan.
