But I was told GPT-3 was too powerful for mere mortal hands (unless you have an account!) and that it would be used for hate speech and to bring about skynet.

How will this project avoid those terrible outcomes?

By putting the cat back in the bag. Oh, it's too late ... useless to think about it - we can't de-invent an invention or stop people from replicating. Its like that time when NSA wanted to restrict crypto.

I don't know a single intelligent person who believed this argument, it simply doesn't hold up.
