Databricks' @alighodsi with a16z's Martin Casado on who should be policing the AI labs: Martin: "There's kind of three proposals. The OpenAI, Anthropic one is a third party. The Elon Musk one, as far as I can tell, is the labs cross-check each other like peer review, like you do in science. And then the Mark Zuckerberg one is police yourself." Ali: "If we have boxing matches in the ring, the boxers should just be the judges of each other. Would that work? No. They would scream foul all the time." "When vested interests are at play and there's like IPO plans and these two companies are so competitive and they have this history also between them, yeah, they'll be *very* fair to each other." "That's why you need a third party. Why do we have judges in the world at all? Why do we have third parties at all? Why can't people just figure things out between themselves?" "They should try. If they want to do it, they should try. But I'm skeptical that they wouldn't just be biased in multiple ways to judge each other." @alighodsi @martin_casado @sarahdingwang
