I swear to god you people have the worst epistemic hygiene. Literally none of these things have happened! People are not "viscerally" scared "from the halls of the Pentagon to the backroom congressional briefings." There is no, nor are there plans for an "AGI Manhattan Project." And very, very few people on Capitol Hill think "this is the most important challenge for [our] national security ... since the Atomic bomb." Could that change before the end of 2027? Sure, maybe. But until then, if this impresses you, you're telling on yourself.

@NateWitkin i think you are a bit out of the loop on DC's thinking here

@ShakeelHashim Care to elaborate? Which specific claim do you disagree with most and why?
