Exactly.

I can't speak about meta specifically, but from my exposure "responsible ai" are generally policy doomers with a heavy pro-control pro-limits perspective, or even worse-- psycho cultists that believe the only safe objective for AI work is the development of an electronic god to impose their own moral will on the world.

Either of those options are incompatible with actually ethical behavior, like assuring that the public has access instead of keeping it exclusive to a priesthood that hopes to weaponize the technology against the public 'for the public's own good'.

psycho cultists who fear the gods but of course believe themselves to be the priests who can appease the gods.

These self deluded morons are incredibly dangerous. Even Sam Altman is not above being sacrificed to appease the gods.

Do you apply this reasoning with other kinds of weapons too? Because that is how pessimists are treating it: as a weapon in development.

Yes, moral Puritans just in a new modern form.
