One: nuclear non-proliferation has been pretty successful

A number of non adequately reliable actors owning "the bomb" and a number of threatened actors increasingly wanting "the bomb". Not really.

This is relative to something like every nation owning nuclear weapons by 1960 and civil wars usually beginning with a nuclear strike by a standing government.

Nuclear proliferation is not proper in context. The bill in question in the submission is not about preserving a status quo, it is about banning the technology.

A ban on technology results in underground research, migration of intellectuals, monopolies, seething parties...

The bill doesn't ban it. It pauses it until a regulatory body and processes are established. That seems pretty reasonable.

Explain «Banning Artificial Superintelligence so no person or entity [etc.]».

Or you think that «Advanced AI development» does not imply attempting the achievement of Intelligence?

I don't think working on LLMs is the same as working on superintelligence (personally I don't think superintelligence is on the table, but whatever)

I didn't say the challenges would be the same.. You just indicated they were worthwhile for anyone who believes the anthropic principle is why they haven't seen a world with no nuclear treaties decades later.
