I just remembered @anton_d_leicht made a version of this argument in his essay "Homeostatic AI Progress" a while ago. Anton's analysis of AI politics and policy is sharp and underrated; I recommend his newsletter! https://t.co/sOXIDRyJPb https://t.co/pQIMF2dyH5

"ext_alt_text": "People will desperately want rapid AI progress to slow down once it hits them hard. I’ve written extensively about labor market impacts before, but that’s not all there is on backlash: A lot of the deployment avenues for tomorrow’s frontier systems will feel fundamentally alien and scary to people. They’ll see automated systems doing things they thought squarely in the realm of humans – art, genuine interaction, their own chosen trades and passions. They’ll find themselves interacting with AI systems more and more, and they might perceive that interaction as zero-sum: as if someone had taken an important thing from them. Estrangement, fear and protest will be a natural reaction. Even more, these feelings will be fertile breeding ground for politicisation: Any populist message yearns for that kind of emotional turmoil, and there will be plenty of politics to be made in rallying people around an anti-AI message.\n\nThis effect is much stronger if timelines are shorter and development speed",
