"To effectively contain a civilization’s development and disarm it across such a long span of time, there is only one way: kill its science." - Cixin Liu, The Three-Body Problem

unless you could convince them that making smarter-than-human AI is bad. it would be nice if we all thought this. instead they should figure out how to make dumb models faster or more efficient, that's safe
