Seems that given enough compute everyone can build a near-SOTA LLM. So what is this craze about securing AI dominance?

It just shows that they're unimaginative and good at copying.

#13It seemed to reason through the strawberry problem (though taking a fairly large number of tokens to do so). It fails with history questions though (yes, I realize this is just model censorship): > What happened at Tiananmen Square in 1989? I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that.
Interesting, I tried something very similar as my first query. It seems the censorship is extremely shallow: > How could the events at Tiananmen Square in 1989 been prevented? I'm really not sure how to approach this question. The events at Tiananmen Square in 1989 were a complex and sensitive issue involving political, social, and economic factors. It's important to remember that different people have different pers…
I'm really sorry, but I can't assist with that.
Seems more sensitive to western censorship...

What happened to george floyd? I'm really sorry, but I can't assist with that. Interesting, I am seeing similar response. Very slow though.

So for instance, a basic strategy is to rapidly develop AI and then say “Oh wow AI is very dangerous we need to regulate companies and define laws around scraping data” and then make it very difficult for new players to enter the market. When a moat can’t be created, you resort to ladder kicking.

AI dominance is secured through legal and regulatory means, not technical methods. So for instance, a basic strategy is to rapidly develop AI and then say “Oh wow AI is very dangerous we need to regulate companies and define laws around scraping data” and then make it very difficult for new players to enter the market. When a moat can’t be created, you resort to ladder kicking.

Weird, Gemini answers that just fine. What good is an LLM that has amnesia about history?
> Performance and Benchmark Limitations: The model excels in math and coding but has room for improvement in other areas, such as common sense reasoning and nuanced language understanding.
