I mean if it helps I support the move to not release mythos right off the bat yeah? That makes sense, treat new models like new vulnerabilities and give companies time to scan with them etc.

But you have to admit it does serve a savvy business purpose of creating a moat where one wasn’t by getting these tech companies on board and the threat does make for good marketing yeah?

Would it actually just straight up kill you to take things at face value for a total of five seconds?

There is NO shadow wizard marketing gang pulling the strings on every single thing those companies do! Ridiculous, right? But it's true.

Nonetheless, every time an AI company drops a "mechanistic interpretability" paper, or an "extreme AI behavior" paper, or a "concerning capability" report, or says something sensible like "we don't actually know if those systems are conscious or capable of suffering in any meaningful way", or does just about anything really? There's an entire horde of people shouting "it's MARKETING it's HYPE" materializing out of nowhere and drowning entire comment sections in this thought-substituting bullshit.

Normalcy bias is human nature. If human nature bothers you then you're going to be annoyed all the time.
