I posted this comment on the other thread, but it deserves mention here too, because Anthropic also asked for this ~10 days ago, separately from the post linked in the article.

> We believe it would be good for the world to have the option to slow or temporarily pause frontier AI development to enable societal structures and alignment research to keep up with the advance of the technology.

In their subsequent post this week responding to the announcement of the export ban, Anthropic wrote:

> If this standard was applied across the industry, we believe it would essentially halt all new model deployments for all frontier model providers.

Which is what they said would be good.

Great, so let's have the government apply the standard across the industry and see whether Anthropic sticks to their stated beliefs.
