Applying the Utilitarian Lens, pacing AI serves as both a detriment and a positive for us. AI is at a weird stage where everyone in the world is competing to develop a more advanced system; however, the rate at which things are moving raises an eyebrow regarding public safety and privacy concerns. Slowing down the process of developing AI seems to be the obvious response when it comes to taking everyone into consideration—because the attention is literally going off of AI and onto the people. However, the reason it would be nice to speed up AI, for the population's sake, would be to help solve world issues such as disease. I don't know if we're quite at that because if we're weighing it out, the developing/understanding ratio is skewed; in other words, can we progress enough with AI at this speed in order to truly stay intellectually on par with it? If it becomes too advanced, would we know what to do? Applying a different lens like the Virtue, we arrive at a very similar conclusion. Honesty is something that I think most people can value in other people. If it's clear that AI is developing to the nth degree, why does the general public not know more about it? If these organizations were more candid about how little they truly understand as far as safety is concerned, then maybe we would take a step back. That would be the responsible thing to do, which is another trait people value.
