Part 3/3:
Amodei argues that the key is not for any one company to "win," but for the entire industry to collectively improve its practices. He believes that when companies adopt good practices, others will follow, either through imitation or competitive pressure. The goal should be to align the incentives of the industry as a whole, rather than focusing on individual company rivalries.
"The point isn't to be virtuous, the point is to get the system into a better equilibrium than it was before."
Amodei sees this race to the top as the best way to ensure that the development of powerful AI systems benefits humanity as a whole. While individual companies and leaders will make mistakes, the important thing is to keep striving for improvement and to create an ecosystem where the best practices are widely adopted.
