  • "- Great idea! Never heard it before, even though it's fairly obvious. - It would probably slow, not pause, progress. - How to enforce this for small actors with their own hardware? - How to enforce this globally? Perhaps this would create tax havens, where model training is almost free? - I like that it doesn't do damage to smaller AI projects - I like that the raised funds can be used for other good purposes. Really like the section on this, and on the political side, as well. - In general worked out in detail, and good points made throughout the proposal. - Fits the idea of simple regulation, but worked out in detail, very well. Like the formula too. - One point of criticism: perhaps AGI xrisk is more of a discontinuous function, rather than a linear one? Your proposal would quite heavily tax half a GDP-4, while xrisk might be very low. Perhaps tax should stay low for longer, and then go up steeply? - I guess one of the following could happen: either the tax is high enough for large companies to stop development. Then it's equivalent to a moratorium. Or the tax is low enough for large companies to continue development. Then it won't slow them down much. - I really like the report. I also like the simplicity and elegance of the proposal."
