Mark Zuckerberg, in a post on X, stated that AI labs are responsible for training their models safely and taking their own actions to ensure this happens, rather than relying on collective or government-enforced slowdowns. He emphasized that companies have natural incentives, such as avoiding misaligned user agents and mitigating liability from harm, to prioritize safety and alignment.
“Every lab has the responsibility and incentive to move at the pace required to train its models safely and the ability to take its own actions to ensure that happens.”
“We didn't call for everyone else to do this before we would, we just did it as part of our day-to-day work because it was clearly the right thing for people and for us.”
“Committing the significant majority of compute towards serving people, rather than racing towards recursive self-improvement, is one of the best ways to ensure that we develop this technology safely.”
